The service is exceptional most of the time. I've always loved the bread, and the pasta has been a favorite for years. The gondolas are a classic dish that I can never get enough of—they're a must-try when you're in the area. It’s definitely a can't-miss experience in central Illinois. Treat yourself and stop by for a gondola along with either pizza bread or a hot ham and cheese sandwich!
