Takeout tonight: chicken parm & lasagna. Chicken was stringy and tough. The meat in the lasagna had a very strange odor and taste, as if it had spoiled. Maybe not. Maybe that's "just how they season it" but both me and my wife detected the same strange/repulsive odor and taste. We did not eat it. We ate some of the chicken parm. I have already filled out the webform demanding a full refund. If we don't hear back w/in 48 hours I'll do a credit card chargeback. The staff was ok: friendly and attentive during the takeout pickup process. It's just that the food is garbage.

Absolutely horrible experience. Started off alright, we got sat right away. Our reservation was at 4:30 for 4 people and we got there at 4:15 .. there were only a few tables in the restaurant at that time. . Ordered fried ravioli appetizer, that was really good. We all got a side salad, those came out, and then it was downhill. Could not get a drink refill, asked for more bread which never came. By 5:30 we still never received our entrees. They came out at 5:40 and the 2 chicken Parm entrees and eggplant Parm were all cold and soggy. 5 minutes later my Pasta Bravo entree came out and it was smoking hot, but the noodles were not cooked (they were still hard & crunchy). They did take care of the bill, but we sat there for almost 2 hours and left hungry. We didn't even want to take the food to go. It was also my mother's birthday, so it ruined the beginning of our day. I would hate to see it if they were busy. I have worked in restaurants all of my life.. Clearly understaffed in the Front of House, Back of House may need re-trained. Ridiculous and very disappointing. Do not go, unless you like cold, undercooked food that takes 1.5 hours to come out.

Went there for our Christmas Eve Dinner. The hostess and waitress were fantastic but our meal was so disappointing. Food came out to fast. Pasta was clumpy, over cooked. Pasta Woozie, the chicken was not done. Very disappointed and will definitely not be going back.
