However if you like organ meat, it would work. Had the ELfo special. SPAGHETTI in an olive oil with mushrooms andshrimp. Good portion. Service was very very slow.

We we informed by Ellen Grisanti as she stated ?the owners wife? that they did no open until 11:00 and the staff would not be ready until then. I was with my elderlymother and ask if we could sit while we waited. She pointed to the closest table to us, so we sat. Three minutes later severalladies arrived and received the same lecture from Ellen. Then a minute later she came out to seat the girls and another partythat had arrived. I mentioned that we were the first to arrive and she said quote ? If you are going to be like that we aregoing to have a lot of trouble? We left and are dining across the street at Season 52 with a lovely waitress Hannah not theowners wife !

The bacon-wrapped livers were tasty, but the spaghetti and veal cutlet lunch we ordered was a large portion without any stand-out qualities. The meal was served with a standard garlic bread.

Service is prompt and friendly. Lane was helpful and very attentive. The food is the best ever. I always check out the Italian restaurants when I travel. By far this is the best. Glad I chose to dine here.
