    Meatball appetizer tasteful. Maggiano’s salad fresh and upscale lettuces. Lasagna flavorful and just the right size. Imperial Branzino yum. Service by Jonan was personable and knowledgeable.

    Maggianos is slipping. Walking in smelled stale , dirty floors not the fresh details and sauces simmering that I was expecting. I checked in early for reservation but was not called. I had to recheck after noticing others being seated before us. Server Tabitha was great and energetic. However, several chairs ripped and worn, stuffing coming out. The once shiny dark wood wall of our booth stained with splatter. No candle or flowers on the table. Bread served was plain white, nothing special, I miss the focaccia. Our favorite zucchini fritte batter has changed, taste and texture of fried zucchini found everywhere. Food is hot and served on time with smiles and many customers happy and celebrating but no fresh parmesan served table side, I was shocked when Tabitha slapped down a used shaker of Parmesan that can be found at any pizza joint. Prices have gone up as expected but quality is way down. Maggianos was my place to Dress up for an upscale Italian meal. Now I’ll keep my sweatshirt on and order takeout. Disappointed.

    Nice Christmas decorations making the restaurant feel warm and inviting. Out server was wonderful. Our food was delicious and was served quickly…my only complaint was that the lobster was overcooked.
