in the last weekOverwhelmingly expensive for the experience. Steaks were fine and cooked to the expected level, sides are expensive (12$ for a backed potato or vegetables or ... anything). Dessert ("cannoli") is not on par with it's price (that's a single cannoli in a big plate), the dough is good and crunchy but the cream had virtually no taste. The room is very noisy despite having all tables separated by mid-height walls.

in the last weekMy 90 year old Mom mentioned how she used to enjoy coming here with my Dad so my sister, brother and I took her to dinner tonight. Way overpriced for the quality. I had the seafood fettuccine which had clam shells with no clams! Poor quality fish, some mussels and a few shrimp for $37. Dinner salad was very basic for $13 (lettuce, 3 pieces of red onion and a slice of tomato. No croutons). The wait staff is good except they forgot to bring me my drink that I asked to have with my meal. I can get a better meal at Olive Garden.
