Food: 4/5 Drink: 5/5…read moreService: 5/5 Comfort: 3.5/5 TL/DR: busy- friendly & prompt service- fresh food & good drinks, huge chicken parm portion, good but underseasoned. Stopped in at 7ish for supper on a Thursday evening. Bar was full so I took a hi-top, ready and poised like Gordon himself to critique the menu variety and lack of bowties. Already judging the slightly too loud for comfort DJ playing the perfect mix of my guilty pleasures (not to be discussed here). However, for the crowd, service came quickly, and a beverage and entree were on the way. Burgers, seafood, and other options looked good, but my heart saw chicken parm and our fate was sealed. I noticed the $50 price for that with pasta, and was shocked, until it arrived. Then I was astounded. The portion that was brought forth could feed 3 of me, maybe 4 or 5 of average size and endurance. As I began my conquest of this challenge set before me, another server arrived with bread and EVOO/vin/etc. I assume this means bread service was late, but good LORD, ITS AS IF THE DELICIOUS CARBS NEVER END?!. The vodka sauce was classic. Chicken parm was massive, fresh, and crispy. Only gripe is the chicken was bland- needs more salt/msg/herbs in breading & seasoning. All in all, supper and service was good and theres a full menu of italian, burger, and bar food options probably worth trying. ELE OT

Well mannered , knowledgeable about the menu , sincere all well moving with a purpose. He treated us a lonely table of 2 like we were his only priority well simultaneously handling a 10 , 4 and 6 top. We sat in the side dining room facing the kitchen pass. We watched 6 pros handle business. Minimal words just chin gestures and some pointing. Some serious heat was moving thru that kitchen being passed to runners that kept that fire alive calling for garnish extra sauce and accoutrements as if it was Orchestra.Food was phenomenal. Egregious portions. Flavors layer. Sweet salty fatty creamy one after another nothing standing too far out or too far behind. The spice in the seafood dish was about right to let you know it was there but not over stay it's welcome. Plump seafood with a clean finish. We shared a bite with each other and went for seconds. The dessert a catcher's mitt size of chunk of old style ricotta cheese cake. Mind you all this was happening when they were serving a wedding of 50 in the back room. Two cons. The a/c wasn't working it was a little warm. I won't harp too much on that we had extreme weather the day prior. Number 2 . Truffle oil. The table next to us ordered truffle fries. We smelt it , the table on the far side of us smelt it. Truffle oil is so strong you can smell it on your clothes the next day.

I was seated almost right away, and seems many others im reviews have had issues with this and i think it stems from the restaurants layout - lot of young workers and no ones going to want to just sit in the quiet part greeting i suppose, Anyways- i had no issues, was served quick and was in and out. I went with clam spinach dip as an app which was 10/10 for me. Ordered a burger that came on a kaiser roll which also was good but nothing that wow'd, and a beef rib grilled cheese which i will say was really good and a savored every bite! They have to promote some of these best items more!!!! On my overall experience i had a good time , almost gave it 4 stars because the booths are awkwardly set up and you are an inch away from other people seating next to you inside the restaurant almost butting heads....

For a chain restaurant they really have it down to a science and though they have a great variety,…read morethey are not over the top either. I have never had a bad meal here or waiting an agonizing long time to eat here either, in all honesty, we don't come here during dinner rush or when we are hangry, hungry yes, but not withering away to nothingness. So the usual items hubby, Mini-Me and I order, on any given is the following: Steakhouse Wedge or Asian Chopped Salad Beef dip (absolutely delicious), or mini sliders Bacon Burger- extra bacon Tri-Tip or Prime Rib ( I love the Prime Rib here- seasoned perfectly-Fri & Sat only and I think on Sundays too) Full Rack- ribs- I really like the BBQ sauce here. Cherry Glazed Salmon or Mahi-Mahi tacos We always save room for the Pizooki trio, I am required to share, so we get the trio. I always order the Framboise, I had it for the first time at the BJ's in Ca and I order it every time I am here, it goes with everything I order. Hubby goes for the Moscow mule or a Blue Moon, Mini-Me prefers a Margarita- we like the margarita flight and share it, sometimes-wink. I tried the Hard Root-beer, it was pretty good I wanted to try the white peach boba-rita but at around $14, I rather stick to my usual poison. It can get busy- but we never come here in a rush, we enjoy our time.
