Upon walking in I was pleasantly surprised with the nice atmosphere. Staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming . We came in for the $19.99 dinner for 2 special - includes choice of appetizer (cheese pizza, app platter, or salad) + 2 pastas from a list. I will try not to let the fact that they sat a family with a crying baby (in a half empty restaurant mind you) about 1 foot away from me sway my opinions of the food! \n\nBread brought to the table was just alright, nothing special. We each ordered sangria ($5.50) and found both the strawberry variety and the plain variety scrumptious! The appetizer platter was tons of fried things - fried ravioli, fried mozz, fried zucchini and fried chicken. Not particularly bad or particularly good. The \"just alright\" food continued with my husband's chicken parm and my canneloni. I'm the type of girl that gets pretty excited about the chicken canneloni at freaking Macaroni Grill - this one unfortunately wasn't nearly as good (less cheese, less meat, and less flavorful to be specific). \n\nThe dinner took a bit longer than it should have (about 90 minutes), especially when I was itching to get away from said crying baby! I'd go back but I'd try the pizza next time and I'd dine in the bar (holding a sangria!) away from the crying babies.
