It has been an amazing and welcoming place since I was a kid! Food is always awesome, great prices and daily deals. My personal favorite is all you can eat spaghetti on Tuesday! The staff and even the owner are always a sweet bunch. A definite recommendation for anyone coming from outta town and locals alike!

I wanted to like this place as the restaurant is promoted as being more than just your regular pizza and pasta joint. Unfortunately, mediocre food at higher than average prices is what I found. The food tasted good, Don't get me wrong. However, for what you are paying, it's overpriced... especially the pasta... and $3 for a glass of unsweetened tea is just ridiculous even with refills. The cheese stuffed penne in Alfredo sauce was obviously store bought pasta and not freshly made in-house. The Alfredo sauce possibly was made in-house, but if so, it was with subpar ingredients. It's incredibly easy to make fresh sauce with good ingredients. Why they don't with this is beyond me. Furthermore, for over $12 in cost, more than 8 pieces of pasta would have been nice. The lasagna looked to be pre-made, possibly frozen, and reheated as the amount of liquid water in the sauce suggested it wasn't made recently. The containers of parmesan cheese were obviously repackaged from a larger (bulk) container, and the grated "cheese" itself looked the same as what you'd get from grocery store shelves You can tell it was repackaged because the lid had to be removed to get the grated cheese out since it was stuffed so full and even caught under the lid. For as much as you have to pay, getting freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano could have helped justify the cost a little, but instead, it looked like bulk Kraft from the grocery. We ended up getting a pizza to go because there was so little food from the penne and lasagna dishes. It was another $30 for an 18" supreme, which was a thin crust. Very average pizza, and unfortunately, this is on par with what you'd find at other small town pizza joints regionally. We did notice on the menu that you can buy their homemade sauce as well. Although the red sauce and Alfredo sauce do taste good, it's definitely not worth anywhere near the extravagant prices they are asking. It's not that hard to make fresh pasta sauce at home at much cheaper costs. Even some more expensive store brands are still cheaper and taste better than this. The one thing I can complement them on is the tiramisu and cannoli, which were the best parts of the meal. Of everything we had, they tasted the best. However, I'd venture that these weren't made in-house either. They had the look of mass-produced desserts plated with extra confectionery to make it look in-house. They were better than many similar places I've eaten and offered these. Perhaps a little higher end and pricier than average, but I'd still be greatly surprised if they were proven to be made in-house. Overall, I'd say this place is an average pizza and pasta joint, but at a higher than average price, especially for the pasta dishes. I'd recommend stopping by for the desserts, however.
