Their garlic bread comes with the salad and pasta so you could skip the knots and not miss a thing. The bread was a little fresher - as reviewed by my son. My son and I shared the Mediterranean salad which was yummy. Wish they had a balsamic vinaigrette but vinegar is always good. I asked for olives on the side. Got the green but not the kalamata on the side which I thought was funny. My son and I both got pizza. Plenty to share. Very flavorful. I got the pizza a La primavera because I sadly can't do tomatoes. They swapped the tomatoes for spinach. Yum! My husband's penne a la arrabbiata was yummy. We used the sauce to dip our bread in. Don't mind us. lol. He liked being able to have wheat instead of white. Great, friendly service. Will be back when we are in town.

It was a Saturday night around 9pm...not a lot of options open that time of night other than the standard chain restaurants. Papa Cido came up on Google with great reviews, so we decided to give them a try. SO GLAD WE DID!!! Immediately, we were greeted and sat at our table when we arrived. The hostess grabbed a kids menu and crayons for our littlest one and sat us at a great booth. With only an hour left before closing time, I wasn't too surprised that there was only one other dine-in customer besides us. We did see quite a few pickup up orders come and go while we were there. The staff were personable and accommodating throughout our time there. And our food was yummy! We ordered: Caesar Salad Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings Papa Cido Pizza Create your own Calazone Honey Salmon with risotto and broccolini Kids 1/2 cheese and 1/2 Pepperoni Pizza Everything was fresh and made to order. With the open kitchen, we were able to watch a lot of the culinary action and appreciated the chef's hard work as he whipped up all of this essentially on his own. The chef took the time to bring out one of our items and even chatted with us for a bit. The bathrooms were tidy, the drinks we ordered were refreshing, the restaurant was clean, and the staff were attentive and professional. We will definitely be back when we're in town and I appreciate the great meal and fun time we had on a whim!

The garlic bread lacked enough garlic and butter. Imo, this was a $12 plate not $27, portions of seafood was underwhelming. Fried mozzarella moons were yummy. The sauce that came with it was a little too acidic imo but not terrible. My food- chicken parm wasn't as hot as I would like. I can definitely tell my food sat out longer while my hubby's was made second. Thus the fries were lukewarm, sandwich was warm but would like it hotter! The flavor was fine. No offerings of baked ziti, eggplant Parmesan. Overall $70 included tip, hmmm we might come back to try just the pizza next time but I will pass on the sandwich offerings.

Long post alert On the afternoon of January 14, 2025, I…read morewent to pick up a food order for my co-workers and I. I ordered a meat lover's stromboli. When I opened my box, I noted that it appeared I had actually been given a calzone, that was super thin, barely had any cheese inside and was not fully cooked on top in the center. I tasted a piece and realized that it was indeed not thoroughly cooked as it tasted doughy. I called back and spoke to the young lady at the front register. She apologized and told me to bring it back. When I arrived back at Marina's, she asked if I wanted a replacement, something else or a refund. I told her that I'd get a refund. The lady that owns/runs the establishment was in the kitchen preparing food. The young lady took my food and showed it to her and informed her of my complaints and that I was requesting a refund. The owner began raising her voice at me from the kitchen, saying the food was cooked, couldn't I see that? I didn't respond to her, I just waited to see if I'd receive my refund. She walked from the kitchen, food in hand, still raising her voice, telling the young lady that this day was a day of complaints. She then turns to me and says that I must have paid too much money for the food and couldn't afford it and that's why I returned the food. I replied to her that I wouldn't have had food to return if I didn't have money to pay for it originally. She went on, ranting and raving, calling me stupid, suggesting that I call the health department if I felt like her food was uncooked. I told her that I didn't wish to argue with her, or see the need to call the health department, when she could just refund me my money and I could go on my way. I even apologized to her for her having a seemingly bad day, to which she replied that she was not having a bad day and that I was the problem. I told her that she was clearly having a bad day since she was insulting paying customers the way she was. I have been to this restaurant on many occasions and have never had an issue with anyone that works there, her included, and this was actually the first time I have had to return food. She's always given me a "thank you lady" farewell in past visits. I truly feel so disappointed in how I was treated and that I even went back and forth with her because I am not an argumentative person. After she gave the young lady the okay to refund me, she went on to tell me to do her a favor and not return, which she did not have to do, because after being verbally accosted like that, I have no plans on it. Even with Enfield having slim pickings on places to eat (which is to her advantage), she will not have to ever worry about my coins being spent with her! The food was better when her husband ran the place anyway and the food is overpriced for what you get! I gave 1 star because I couldn't leave it blank, and this terrible experience trumped all my other visits. I wish had taken a photo of the food but I didn't snap one; wasn't expecting the hoopla I received.

Amano offers a variety of Italian dishes at affordable prices and very well seasoned. I was in the mood for a cheesesteak so that's what I got. The food was very well seasoned with peppers and onions. I also got the fries which were amazing very crisp and very well seasoned too. I am a sucker for homemade ranch and they did not disappoint. Seating is very spacious and they were getting busy when we arrived but the staff seemed to handle it very well. Food was hot and fresh and we had everything we needed. I would definitely visit again.

All of their entrees come with bread, and you have the option to add proteins and vegetables. I decided to go with the lasagna with a side of vegetables. The food took a while to come out, but it was so worth it! The lasagna had tons of flavor. Each bite you could taste the oregano, tomatoes, red pepper, and one other seasonings. One just popped after the other. The vegetables were a little over cooked and sad, so I added them to the lasagna, and that seemed to help a little bit. Minus one star for the server being a little snappy and rude when I asked about the wifi. She seemed to get a little nicer before we left, but the escalation of her attitude while I asked her questions was surprising. Being a server myself, I understand having an off day; but you can't let that mess with you too much. However, the other server that helped us at the end was a delight. I would come back for the lasagna and skip the vegetables.
