I've found that sitting at the bar is often a fun way to dine because people tend to be friendly and open to conversation. I met a nice gentleman who suggested I try the chicken Marsala with rigatoni in a red sauce, and he did not steer me wrong! The chicken was well seasoned, and the sauce was absolutely delicious. I paired it with a spritz that was light, refreshing, and a nice complement to the meal (no picture, I was famished) The restaurant had a lively, welcoming atmosphere, and I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu. My one wish...A traditional meat-based lasagna on the menu. I'd be all over that Honorable mention: they have Hanks Cheesecakes on the dessert menu! Overall, a really enjoyable first visit, and I'll definitely be back.

The not so good- Fettucine Alfredo, noodles were mushy, sauce was super hot after 15 minutes, sauce was broken and grainy, assuming they microwaved it right before sent out due to the sauce was broken and the lumpy, grainy texture was very off putting. Spaghetti was just ok, not enough sauce, but thats just my preference. Salad was good, a sweet vinegar and oil Italian.

(Yes, I DO know Al Canal!), and the management ordered out for us to the Pasta House. As we are from Chicago, we don't know from "Pasta House". The name doesn't really inspire confidence. I ordered Scampi, expecting limpid shrimp, scant garlic and indifferent marinara. I was surprised to get large, fresh Shrimps, prepared almost like Shrimp DeJonghe (An essential fave of mine), along with some groovy dried tomatoes over a bed of spaghetti agli d'olio. (Garlic & Oil). The dish was delicious, and there was actually plenty of Garlic power! The rest of the guys said their dinners were very very good. My Wife, who is the Merch gal for the band ordered Cheesy Garlic Bread (Of which she is a great aficionado). She reported it as truly excellent. Even crappy Garlic bread is ok, but it takes a deft hand to make an excellent example. Fine fine quality indeed-someone in that kitchen knows what they are doing. We had to skedaddle back home the next morning, but if we're anywhere in the vicinity of a Pasta House, we'll make it our business to stop. Throwing a well-deserved 4 stars.

There is plenty of seating and parking. Place has a good vibe. Its because of good servers and good food that keep customers like myself happy. And coming back for meals. Highly recommend the Edwardsville location.

What an incredible lunch special, for the low price of $18. You get to choose one item each from…read moretwo sections. The variety of choices allows you to create the perfect lunch. When I saw they had hot honey and pepperoni paired together on a 8" pizza, I instantly knew that was one of my choices. The fresh mozzarella and ricotta cheeses paired with the hot honey and pepperoni exploded with flavor. My only disappointment was the inner crust. The outer rim crust was very crispy, but the inner was soft and limp due to the excessive grease from the flavorful pepperoni. I guess that is something I just need to deal with for a tasty lunch pizza. My other choice was, the Apple Gorgonzola Salad. Wow. Double Wow! This has to be the best salad I have ever had. It was a delightful mix of, spinach, granny smith apple, gorgonzola, sun-dried cranberries, candied pecans, all topped with a delicious maple cider vinaigrette. I will be back for the large version and a glass of Pino Grigio as a dinner. As my usual, I sat at the bar. My adult beverage of choice, was a Peel Summer Lager. I may be going back to fill my growler, for the upcoming holiday weekend. The restaurant has a contemporary feel, but the acoustics make it a loud environment. I didn't mind the laughter and loud conversations, it was the yelling and crying toddlers that made me cringe. Service was friendly and attentive. I enjoyed watching the bartenders use their mixologist skills preparing all the cocktails. It pleased me to see they offer "hooks under the bar". That's a small detail that makes me smile.

I woke up Easter morning and there was no Easter Basket filled with chocolates waiting for me. What…read moreshould I expect when I am an old man living alone with two dogs. Since I had no basket to enjoy, I decided to take myself out for Brunch. I remembered the last time I went to brunch at, Brick + Bramble, it was pretty good. So I made myself presentable and headed to Edwardsville. I'll tell you up front, this Brunch far exceeded the last one and I thought it was outstanding. I seated myself at the bar, my favorite place to eat when dining alone. Was glad to see one of my favorite things and that is Hooks and Outlets Under the Bar. It's such a nice touch, to provide those for the customers. Let me start out giving a shout out to the young lady who was bartending. She did an outstanding job making my cocktails and taking my order. I ordered a Morning Martini and she asked if I wanted that or did I really want just an Espresso Martini. She quickly explained the differences and I went with the Espresso. I've had the Morning, but this espresso one, made my morning. While I was reading the Brunch menu, another server came up to retrieve drinks for her table. As she waited, I asked her what would she recommend for me to order. Without blinking she said, Fried Chicken Benedict. I giggled and told that was what I was leaning towards and her recommendation made my mind up. When my Benedict arrived, my eyes bugged out of my head. It was huge, I mean seriously huge. I could not eat all of it, I had to take half home. Later that night, a little warm-up and I had dinner. The Benedict was grilled biscuits topped with hand-bread fried chicken breast topped with over-easy eggs and house made sausage gravy. The breading on the breast was crunchy and crisp. Eggs were done perfectly and the sausage gravy was equal to a farmers wife. I may have been getting full, but I couldn't just have one cocktail. After all it's Brunch and Easter morn. After seeing the flier for the spring cocktail specials, I ordered a Pistachio Martini. It's vanilla vodka, Amaretto, Bailey'sBlue Curacao with a Crushed Pistachio Rim, made up for not having an Easter Basket filled with chocolate. The rich creamy texture was like drinking a dessert. Before spring is over, I'll be back for another. Again, shout out to the great bartender who took care of me.
