    Chicken Francese
    Erickita S.

    I think it was pretty good I had the Chicken franchise. It was wonderfully prepared. The ambiance was also super nice at the place lots of people it was very packed and I am glad I stopped by to try them and took food to go. Next time I'll try dining in

    Small bits of asparagus and just a few tomatoes. Could have done better...

    Dissapointed..The service was fine. We come here, on average, every month or so. The Valentine's menu was overpriced, but I cut slack because most restaurants do that, and it would have been fine, had it been up to their usual generous & good portions--we had lunch. The first basket of rolls was cold, seemed stale & not worth the calories. I did ask for a replacement and we were brought new ones that were the usual good, fresh & hot ones. My husband had Eggplant parm...he liked it. I ordered shrimp with risotto--super disappointed. It was $30+... not the creamy risotto I've gotten in other places (which I love) . It was more like undercooked white rice-it was hard. It was served with about 5 medium sized shrimp. For comparison, the bigger one, in the pic, is a cooked shrimp I bought from Costco, to add to the leftovers tonight. Of course we will return, it's my husband's favorite place. Could have done a way better job with Valentine's Day though--since it was quite a bit more $$ than on regular days. Just don't order risotto, unless my description sounds appealing to you!

    The food was really good and everyone was really friendly. We had reservations and were seated on time. Most dishes are about $20 and it's a pretty long menu. It was the first restaurant that I went to that boxes your left over food for you. The With portion of food that get, I think things are fairly priced and it's actually a nice little spot. If you enjoy Italian food then it's a nice place to go for a date night. They also do have a bar. Free parking onsite and a parking lot across the street. I am not sure if parking across the street was free. It seems to get bus around 7pm so plan accordingly

    Depending on the day mama Lisa's is good, food always on point. Pizza not so much. I like it better if I ask for a well done pizza.

    Food is excellent and the staff is friendly. I only do take out. But when I picking up food it looks clean and a relaxing atmosphere.

    La Volpe Ristorante - Seafood pasta in "Bianco"

    La Volpe Ristorante

    La Volpe is the standard for traditional southern Italian cuisine. There is nothing they don't do…read morewell here. You don't come here to pinch Pennie's, you come here to immerse and indulge. Fried Calamari with zucchini is melt-in-your-mouth tender, brick oven pizza's are BETTER than Rome. Fillet Mignon Au Poivre is the best I've ever had, as is the Branzino! But my favorite is the Chicken Dijonaise. It's been on the menu for over 25 years for a reason! Cocktails are expertly prepared, and the service is professional. If you have to wait a bit for your food to come out, that's a good thing! Sit, chill, put your phone down and enjoy your family. Have a conversation, and let them cook. Bravo, (as usual) La Volpe!

    One of the worst dining experiences we've had in a very long time…read more My family has been coming to this restaurant for 20 years since they opened and before this, to Anton's when they were just a small pizzeria in the King Kullen shopping center. We've celebrated holidays here, hosted parties here, and have always spoken highly of it--which made this experience even more disappointing. We took my mother out for Mother's Day shortly after my father passed away, hoping for a nice family meal. Instead, we were treated terribly from start to finish. We were seated late at a cramped table for three, despite having a reservation. Our server, J***, didn't check on us the entire evening. She didn't tell us the specials until we specifically asked, and then responded sarcastically with, "Oh, you want to hear the specials?" It took an hour just to receive appetizers, and no server initially came over to take our order until we spoke to the mother of the owners, who we didn't see at all. My husband and I would always talk to one of the brothers. We waited excessively for simple things like sweetener and iced tea. At one point, a young staff member told us there was no sweetener available at all. It honestly felt like our server may have been pulled from another role just to "help out," because the service was so disorganized. What made it worse was the complete lack of professionalism from the front staff. The two people seating guests looked miserable and unfriendly. It was apparent they were probably family, because they had no qualms about doing their jobs badly. When we raised concerns, one of the two unhappy women--who was extremely cold and dismissive--actually told us that she waits three hours when she goes out to eat, as though that somehow excused our experience. We also noticed staff talking about us, which was incredibly unprofessional and uncomfortable. What was most frustrating was seeing groups of employees standing around while service was clearly falling apart. Being busy is understandable--(it was used as an excuse for everything going wrong), especially on Mother's Day--but after 20 years in business, a restaurant should know how to handle a busy night without everything unraveling. The food was disappointing as well--my veal was tough--and at no point did anyone apologize, offer any gesture of goodwill (not even a complimentary coffee), or acknowledge how poorly our evening had gone. Not even a simple "Happy Mother's Day" or goodbye as we left and we walked right by the cold, dismissive woman. The actual only highlight of our evening was when a wonderful server named Iverson came over to finish up with us, because clearly having to ask our server for sweetener three times forced her to have a possible meltdown? Unfortunately it was way too late, the damage had already been done. Now that's a charming individual, who is great with people! It certainly would have helped make a difference in our experience. This was especially heartbreaking because this restaurant has meant something to our family for years. Sadly, after this experience, we won't be returning. There are too many other restaurants that know how to treat loyal customers with respect.
