Most disappointing visit. Food was close to olive garden in flavor. Alfredo very dry. Cost much more than it should have, but California $. Service survived my buddy and myself.

Never been to this restaurant. Just kept seeing in from the highway. It's bigger than it looks. Photographs of yesteryear are over the restaurant. Very much an Italian atmosphere. Family sized portions. Nobody gets their own plate. It's all for sharing. Had the large size ravioli and Caesar salad. So delish!!! Plus got to snack on the warm Italian loaf with vinager and olive oil. Very impressive. Waitress was totally cool.

The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars on the food is due to me being gluten intolerant. They do not off gluten free substitute. They do have a gluten friendly menu with 10 items. It is mainly salad, seafood, and some sausages.

We didn't even try or order any food, we left on the spot due to a terrible smell and the carpents being gross and disgusting.
