    We ordered our food and I was notified all the other food was done that my particular selection could not be made after waiting 25 minutes. So I did not order anything. I left the restaurant hungry I was extremely disappointed and I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone. All the food was good. The servers was horrible.

    Service was great, ordered spaghetti on the cheese wheel just for the experience and that’s exactly just what it is, tasted bland for the price tag. Ordered The chicken parm, 100% better definitely would order again and opt for the cheese wheel.
