    Chicken parmigiana
    Cal L.

    This place is the definitional "neighborhood gem." The menu is not easy to interpret, because there are specials and items in the display cooler that aren't on the menu. So when you order, make sure to consider what's in the coolers in front of you + what's on the menu. Looks are deceiving. The furniture, silverware, and cups and plates look like they're from the 1980s. The salad bar looks pretty unappetizing as it's weigh by the pound and various bowls of cold salad recessed against ice chips, think Sizzler when you were growing up. But the quality of the food was amazing. I love that they have fresh made egg pasta and a variety of sauces to choose from. And the lobster ravioli they were serving was absolutely delicious. I think my favorite thing was the ravioli, but I asked for it with the Alfredo sauce, which was made with cream and sherry. Pretty unforgettable sauce, and worth it. The crowd seemed on the older end - families and retired folks. The food was reasonably priced and the service was great - the staff was attentive and the gentleman who helped us clear the table and bring out a high chair for our little one earned the $20 we gave him. I'm sad to say we will be moving to Boston this week, but I'm hopeful that someone will read my review and consider coming here. Small town feel, fresh and high quality ingredients, reasonable prices, looks locally and family owned, nice ambiance and outdoor seating, and most importantly, solid food. Thanks Bernard!

    What a local gem! I wasn't sure how I would feel about this place as it's in a strip mall, but decided to try the place out. The food was amazing. We had their oven fried chicken and it was so good. The chicken was not dried, but juicy and the breading was flavorful. They have fresh bread that were so amazing. Especially the focaccia bread, soooo good! The service was great, and the ambiance is cute. Can't wait to go back for the homemade pasta.

    Their pasta and italian sausage is out of this world! I can call and walk over there for a delicious dinner with leftovers.

    The food is very good , the owner has no personality and needs to work on not being a curmudgeon. Lost a customer today.

    This review is long overdue as my husband and I have been coming here for a few years--not…read moreregularly--but enough times to let people know to support this small, family-owned business. The ambiance is cozy and inviting with only 14 tables. Yes, only 14. Instead of expanding to the masses, this restaurant chooses to keep its vision to retain dining as the experience it should be. The murals on the wall, and the feeling of being in an outdoor cafe while remaining inside, is something you don't see much in the area. The food is always fresh and delicious. We've enjoyed lasagna, manicotti, carbonara, fettuccine, piccata (chicken with capers), Marsala, salad and desserts. The wine is served in large glasses so you get a nice serving to enjoy some Chianti or choose another nice Italian wine on the list. The restaurant serves wine and beer only, and coffee drinks. I've heard the pizza is great but haven't tried it yet. It always looks good when another table orders it. Carry out is available in the back of the building. The owner is very nice and will talk about his Italian heritage with a warm smile. This restaurant is truly a little gem hidden behind big box stores. It makes a nice date night too. Make a reservation on Friday or Saturday.

We chose Carrabba's due to its proximity to us. We ordered raspberry, flavored, iced tea, Caesar salad, Sacchetti appetizer, and Lasagne. My partner ate some of the Sacchetti appetizer as her dinner. I say some because it was room temperature. The server asked how our food tasted and we told her the appetizer was not hot or even warm. The manager came over and asked if we wanted a new one. We did not want a new one and we're happy to find out that they took it off the bill. The lasagna was just OK and regrettably. I ordered a take-home for the $10 deal before I was able to taste it as my dinner that night. My soup and my partner salad was brought out first and very shortly after about two minutes the rest of our food came out. We were disappointed because we did not finish our first course at that time. My soup came with a teaspoon and not a soup spoon. The raspberry iced tea did not have a lot of flavor. We asked our server about this, and she said that the manager changed the sign in the back from six pumps of flavoring to two pumps of flavoring recently. Two pumps was not enough.
