    Lasagna was okay, I think build your own bolognese was better

    Love this place! Highly recommend trying something off the Chef's Special's menu - everything has been wonderful so far (tried 3 different dishes)!! Wonderful atmosphere and easy/free parking at Liberty Station!

    We have been to this location 4 times 2 out of 10 were mediocre. The South Park location was the first time we ate at this chain. That location was excellent. The food here at the Liberty Station location was not impressive. My pizza was floppy and cold and the complementary bread was dry and flavorless. Lasagna was good. Wine selection was good. Service was excellent. We sat outside and it was very busy and a bit noisy. Nice location. Don’t think we would come again.

    Just not as expected. We were squeezed in a corner outside and it was SOOOOO loud we could barely hear ourselves talk. Planes going over every 2 minutes and kids screaming at the table 1 foot away. Food was nothing special. Service only came in the beginning and then to give us the check. She completely forgot my drink. And then when I wanted to divide the check a certain way, she made a big deal that she had already divided it half on each card. And she would need to cancel and run it again. Will definitely not be going back.
