A sunny Italian trattoria where newspapers are available at the espresso bar, plump chickens turn on the rotisserie, and fresh bread is baked in the back twice daily.

This place is horrible. The pasta, if it can be called that, looks like it was made by a hungry college student. It is dry, the sauce is flavorless and the chicken is dry. Why should I send it back? I'd prefer just to eat it and not come back. This is nothing but a glorified Olive Garden. There are so many better places for pasta, namely Macaroni Grill across the street. The waitress I had was extremely rude and did not check on us.

This is a wonderful restaurant I have been there three times and have always had a good experience - if the chicken is dry it should be sent back - afterall you are paying for it. Until I have a bad experience (and I hope I do not) I will continue to dine here.
