I inside of the restaurant was small but had plenty of tables. It was a slow day on that weekday early dinner time. We asked to order our items for take out. We waited not too long as I remember. How was the food? Fried Calamari- for only being a couple minutes away I wonder why the calamari was already almost cold when we ate it. It was pretty disappointing. Maybe they just had it in the box while they waited for the rest of our order. I don't know. Flavor was good. Pizza Primavera - It was good, I was okay with it. The pizza dough wasn't my favorite but it was fine. White Pasta - I honestly don't remember what the name was but it was an item my bf ordered. This was terrible. Like there was too much roux to make the bechamel. It tasted of flour. Not much salt, not much of other flavors. Not enough milk and cheese and butter. He took a bite and put it down. Overall, glad we tried it but we might not be coming back. With the economy now, it's disappointing when the food is terrible for how much we pay for.

It seems like this place may have changed ownership recently since what we got was not at all…read moresimilar to the other photos on Yelp. Came here on a weekday for dinner and it was mostly empty. We got the chicken parm and the margherita pizza. With the margherita pizza, the dough was obviously bought premade and frozen. It was dry and hard as expected from a premade frozen pizza dough. Not sure if the whole thing was bought frozen. There was generous amounts of cheese with one sad basil leaf of each quarter. One positive thing I can add about the pizza is that the cheese does have a satisfying flavor, giving me a nostalgic flashback to school lunch pizza. As for the pasta, the chicken has a strange taste (maybe too strong on a vodka marinade?). There was way too much sauce for the amount of pasta, and it had a very light and bright flavor, not terrible but definitely lacking depth and any nuances of aromatics or herbs. The chicken was not breaded and instead grilled. Servers were attentive, but seemed to have a lot of staff mostly standing around.

The complimentary bread was fresh and nice, which was a good start. The penne pesto was okay -- a bit on the drier side and could definitely use more sauce. On the other hand, the Alfredo pasta was quite good and nicely done. The highlight of the meal was hands down the tiramisu -- absolutely amazing and worth it on its own. Overall, it's not the best Italian food I've had, but it's not bad either. A decent spot and worth a try if you're in the area.

I haven't been to Strizzi's in years, so when my mom wanted Italian food, we ended up going here…read more The restaurant has a great ambiance. It was bright but cozy. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The only downside was that the service was pretty slow. We got seated quickly, but there were only two servers, so it took a while to place and receive our orders. I enjoyed both the rigatoni bolognese and tiramisu. The food and dessert were fresh, and they tasted great. The noodles were al dente, and the sauce was creamy. I like adding red pepper flakes to my pasta to add a bit of heat. Moreover, I was surprised how big the tiramisu was. It was sweet but not too overpowering. However, I wish there were more coffee flavor. Overall, we enjoyed our visit to Strizzi's. The food and staff were amazing. I will definitely come back.

I ordered the grilled chicken off the lunch special and was pleasantly surprised. The chicken was…read moreclearly cooked on a wood-fired grill, with a nice smoky flavor and good char. It was firm but not overcooked--still moist and juicy. The plate came with mixed vegetables (zucchini, peppers, and onions) that were well prepared, along with mashed potatoes that were done nicely. They had a rich garlic-butter flavor without being overpowering. The portion size was just right for lunch--filling without being too heavy. Overall, a solid lunch option and well executed.

There is a nice seafood display similar to open fish markets on the wharf selling crab and assorted fish. The service is excellent. Our server was attentive and helpful. The restaurant manager stopped by to see how everything was. Build your own (petit filet and 5 oz lobster) - 4/5 You have a selection of choices of what to select on the "Build your own" selection. The base price starts off at $29.95, then you select your food options. There's an uncharged on the most popular selections like lobster and steaks. My lobster was cooked to perfection. Very tender and sweet. The filet was pretty small for the up-charge, and was slight over cooked from the medium rare I ordered. But was still tender and good. The grilled asparagus was a $4 up-charge and you only get 3 spears of asparagus. With the up-charged, my dish, the price was over $46. Lobster Roll - 5/5 The Lobster Roll was very delicious. You get some Lobster tail, but Lobster claw meat is more prominent (see pic). Still the spices along with the clarified butter made this roll very tasty and delicious. Overall, we enjoyed our visit to Market Broiler. It's a little pricy for the average consumer for consistent visits, but for special occasions birthdays, Mother's Day, the Market Broiler is a great place to dine.

I have been pleased with what I've ordered in the past, and do like that there's outdoor seating - good when the weather's warm. I usually go for the 2 slices deal as their pizza is quite filling for me. Not many pizza places offer by the slice(s), so I can appreciate this as well. Service: you are handed a buzzer when your order is ready and it's convenient for hard of hearing folks like myself. Also helpful if you want to sit outside. It's usually pretty quick too, so I like that as well: I definitely went to come back to try more stuff. You order with staff, no kiosks.

Why does this place have such good reviews?? I got the Half and Half pizza with half Potato and…read morehalf BBQ Chicken. The whole thing was unbearably salty, the chicken side was super dry, no cheese stretch at all, and the crust was super thick and very chewy (hard to explain, but almost like someone made the pizza on a naan?). I'm usually not super picky about food, and even bad pizza is usually fine, but I couldn't make it through more than a few bites from each side. Pretty expensive, too - around $30 for a pizza? Definitely won't be coming back.

ALSO - the last time i went he was lowkirkuinely a lil racist. maybe i'm just imagining things..okay guys you're the jury! help me decide. i went with a friend (we r both asian) and he just like looked at us. okay cool maybe we r both baddies idk. we asked for recommendations and samples and he was like teetering between polite and pissed. AND THEN this white couple came in and he was like hey guys!!! lemme help you out!!! big smiles etc. me and my friend were just standing there while this guy spends a long time making convo with this couple, helping them out, etc. when they leave we have to wait another like 5 min for him to even consider our presence and his tone COMPLETELY changes. back to polite/pissed. i decide to buy the small bottle and he looks at me and says something like "wow that's not even going to last you a minute if you buy that" LIKE HELLO I'M BROKE sorry i can't buy a bigger bottle. then he just processes our purchase and doesn't say anything for the rest of the time. i'm still not sure if that was racist or just a bad attitude but either way i'm sending my white friend to shop for me in the future

With the rise of fast food prices being so expensive now, this is a great alternative for a nice fast-casual restaurant at an affordable price. [[ Location ]] Plenty of parking in a large plaza right off the 880 exit/Mowry. There's a gelato spot nearby in case you want to head off for dessert later as well. The restaurant is also very big with high ceilings so it felt very spacious inside and comfortable. [[ Service ]] We went around lunch time and found the service to be really good. Our server came by often to make sure we are okay, to ask if we wanted the next soup/salad after we finished our current ones, and was very attentive. [[ Food ]] Again, you aren't going to get Michelin style food here but for the lunch special ranging from $11.99 to $13.99 that includes unlimited breadsticks with Soup or Salad, I don't know how much better it can get. We opted for the Soup option (you can't switch to Salad after so make sure you want Soup for sure). Best 2 soups in my opinion of the 4 we could choose from: 1.) Chicken & Gnocchi Soup 2.) Zuppa Toscana Soup We really enjoyed our Chicken Parmigiana and Shrimp Scampi as well which we chose as our lunch entree's. It tastes like something you can make at home but it was satisfying. [[ Conclusion ]] It's always nice to have a good experience at a known chain restaurant that you haven't been to in a long time. We might keep it in rotation in the future

I came in for a business meeting this afternoon with a colleague…read more The manager/ hostess was professional and delightful. I observed her behavior throughout my meeting, I must say, her commitment to hospitality was delightful. She treated every guest with respect, kindness and patience. We had a young gentleman as our server ( I think his name was Theo?) I may be mistaken on the name. My apologies. He was very polite, patient, and understanding. He followed all the Steps of Service and exceeded industry standards. Many times it can be frustrating when the price per customer is less than expected for a lunch meeting. My colleague and I both happened to not be hungry during the time our meeting was planned. We only ordered a cup of coffee and occupied our table for almost an hour. Our server was extremely hospitable. Always checking in to see if we were satisfied with our experience. He also brought a fresh pot of coffee to the table to ensure that we had the option to refill. The coffee was perfect. He didn't have to check on us, but he made the effort multiple times and it was truly appreciated. Olive Garden was the perfect place to meet, the atmosphere was calming and quiet. I would recommend coming to this location over its competitors in the surrounding area. With Gratitude, Vanessa
