I don't want to sound overly negative, but for the cost I was a bit disappointed. The pastas: Baked Ziti D , Homemade Lasagna Ds were above average and very meaty, and the pasta itself was properly cooked, but I couldn't help but feel it was over priced even with the side & bread. The Fried Zucchini was disgusting, however, just a bunch of greasy mush with hardly any breading. I've definitely made better at home for much less than the high cost of that appetizer, which was so unappealing that I had to throw it away. A waste of good vegetable awash in grease and turned to mush with bits of batter. The Cherry PepsiDr. Pepper came as ordered. The Cheesecakes however didnt have any toppings whereas the photos show a berry(?) sauce, so that was also a bit disappointing.
Would likely not eat here again with so many other options at better prices.

I ordered extra crab meat, mushrooms, and ricotta. I got three sliced little mushrooms. I didn't get any no crab meat and the ricotta. Looks like they put it on with a teaspoon. I need my money back for the ricotta crab meat and mushrooms.
I was very disappointed in this.
Also, The delivery person took forever to get here and did not follow the GPS and do the correct turns

unfortunately the crust tasted freezer burned and the pizza arrived cold so the crust on the bottom was soggy. would not reorder. disappointed for the cost, over $32 for a 14 inch pie.
