The bread they served was delicious, and my meal was fantastic. Given the atmosphere and quality of the food, the prices are surprisingly reasonable. I highly recommend coming here instead of the Cheesecake Factory—it’s more affordable, tastier, and has a more romantic vibe.

I had cheese manicotti with vodka sauce. I wanted to try their alfredo sauce, so I did get a side of that to try with bread. The vodka sauce was definitely the better sauce... the alfredo had a very thin consistency. I feel like Italian sauces should be able to hold on to the pasta, just in general. Personal opinion though, honestly, the flavor itself was good. I really wanted to try the bread pudding for dessert but it had nuts (not for me), so I had plain cheesecake that was definitely just basic. If I lived in the area, I would return try some other menu items for sure. The choices were MANY!

It seemed to be just a pre-packaged piece of chicken; I had hoped it would be made fresh rather than just reheated! I decided to give the place another chance recently, but that turned out to be a huge mistake. The bread was served ice cold, the service was terrible even though the restaurant was not busy at all, and the food quality was also poor. The bill came to $100, which made the experience even worse. Overall, it was a nightmare dining experience—definitely don’t waste your money here! I couldn't be more disappointed.

The only downside was that we had to request they lower the music volume, which they did, as it was too loud for our party of eight to have a conversation. We will definitely be back!

Great atmosphere, and great food!!! read more Great atmosphere, and great food!!!
