Although it was in the evening after the rains, the patio was the best place to be seated. The place is comfortable and warm, I highly recommend this place for any italian cuisine lovers!

We got the calamari to start. For mains, we ordered lobster ravioli, pasta di la zia, and pasta alla davide. Finished the meal with tiramisu. Calamari- Fried to perfection with a nice chewy interior. The seafood was fresh and tasty. Served with a side of marinara and a lemon wedge. Lobster Ravioli- You get big ravioli pieces filled with meaty lobster and pink sauce. The sauce is creamy and pairs well with the mild seafood. Pasta Di La Zia- You get juicy shrimp offset with crispy pancetta pieces. Arugula and mushrooms add a freshness to the dish. Finished truffle oil in a creamy sauce. Pasta Alla Davide- You get a creamy pesto based sauce with juicy scallops and shrimp. The seafood is fresh and in generous amounts. Finished with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes. Tiramisu- This was a perfect way to end the evening! You start with a strong espresso flavor balanced with creamy marscapone. A classic dessert! Great experience overall!

I came to eat at pasta party a few days ago after telling myself to visit for a long time now. I…read morestill remember the old deli that was there prior to this restaurant and I've seen numerous social media ads and posts about the place so I wanted to check it out. I think I was a little hesitant because in my head I was thinking how good could possibly really be? In my head spaghetti/pasta is something I can make it home and almost thought it a waste of money to go out of my way to go out specifically to eat this dish. I ordered the Arrabiata pasta with the sausage. I'll admit I was a little thrown off by added cost of each tolling and also added cost of the Arrabiata sauce and I also did wait until a fair amount before the food was ready for takeout. But the pasta really blew me away. I'm still thinking about how good it tasted. I would definitely come back and I actually wanna bring my dad who loves spicy pasta like this. It was really that good. I can't think of another place that has this level of pasta let alone this price. The only negative I would say in regards to one of the workers. The cashier was manned by wonderful woman who did every and all tasks from taking the orders to putting food items in the oven to answering the phone I'm probably much more than that. I don't know. In contrast there was an Asian man with a black shirt who was also working. He looked lost and completely helpless. There was a moment where this woman was so busy and there was a ringing that I assume was from either a phone call or a delivery order. This man did not offer to help more nor did he help from what I saw. He was utterly helpless and unhelpful. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt with the encouragement "Hey help your team out!" The woman on the other hand was doing so many things simultaneously and yet was really kind at the same time. Anyways, I'm giving my review of a five star because I wanna see this place succeed and I'll definitely come back .

Came here for a Wednesday night dinner and overall was pretty disappointed:…read more First, the soda machine wasn't working at all as it seemed like they were still setting it up, so we were left with water from a jug they had on the counter. Second, we had ordered garlic bread for an appetizer and it didn't come out until after the main entrees came out which kinda defeats the purpose of an appetizer Third, I got the beef ravioli and my buddy got the meatball sub. The ravioli wasn't bad but wasn't good either. Definitely not satisfied with it. My buddy let me try his sub and I've got one word for it: bland. It looks like this place was under new management as there was a sign out front saying they just reopened a week ago so would I give them a nothing chance later, maybe, but I feel like it would be the same experience.

From the past reviews we can see that Alza has an extraordinarily ordinary appearance but don't let…read morethat fool you. The food, the server and the decor are very respectful and handsome. For a weekday lunch I honestly wished that they would have more business because the quality demands it. Not because it's a Michelin grade but because how happy and satisfied I was after the meal. The eggplant parmesan was perfectly prepared, thickness sliced just right and breaded lightly but still has the little crunch one would want. All on a bed of penne pasta and irresistible marinara sauce. The cheese was just right. It's hard to come by eggplant dishes that aren't overly greasy, oily to maintain their moisture and texture but Alza Osteria have done it! Olive tapenade was so yummy to start with and the sliced baguette, though simple, it's toasted with olive oil and accompanied the artichoke+olive mixture delivered to your mouth on a crispy slice. One thing I wished they had was un-decaffeinated coffee but I'm overlooking it and walking away the fuller person. Also the dessert selection read like mouthwatering dishes I wish I had the stomach for.

We started with a complimentary basket of soft, warm bread followed by an appetizer - olive tapenade ("a blend of marinated artichoke, Spanish, black & kalamata olives, garlic-rubbed crostini"). This was a party for the mouth; the savoriness of each bite was heavenly. For my main dish I ordered cheese ravioli with meat sauce. Initiallly the bowl seemed to have a small serving but in reality I could barely finish it; it filled me up! The ravioli was excellent but what really made it amazing was the deep, delicious flavor of the meat sauce. I imagined some Italian grandma in the kitchen cooking it for days. The prices on the lunch menu are surprisingly fair. More than fair. Which made me love this place even more. Mangia!

I personally order their chicken fettuccine with their homemade sauce and I wanted to eat the entire plate in one sitting it was so good, but I had to restrain myself! The flavor of the sauce was amazing and the pasta was cooked to perfection-kudos to the chefs! The rest of my family loved their plates and we all agreed that Roman Cucina will now be one of our places for birthday get togethers! It's a bit dark, but the ambience is romantic but at the same time laid back and not noisy at all.

Is it fancy? Not at all, but that's also not what Gina's is trying to be. It excels at being a casual neighborhood Italian spot with good food, friendly service, and an easygoing atmosphere. It's become one of my favorite choices for a lowkey pizza date night. You can keep it casual and eat there or grab a pizza and garlic cheese bread to go and have just as good of a night at home. Friendly service, great pizza, and garlic cheese bread that is worth the trip by itself. Gina Maria's feels like a true local spot in all the right ways.
