Homemade Italian Food

This place has the best Italian food. Anything from different types of pasta and chicken to fresh fish and seafood. Their entrees are all family style and meant to be shared. It's a lot of delicious food, great for get togethers. They are priced well and have very fast service and the people are extremely nice.

A “boisterous” atmosphere, “kitschy decor” and moderate tabs are the draw at these chain links where “big portions” of “Italian comfort food” mean “leftovers for days”; the “over-the-top” experience lends itself to a “family party” or “gang of hungry minors”, and it’s so popular, there’s “always a wait.”

Tips about this business (1)

Where To Sit: If you have a large party, reserve the circular "Pope's Table." Special occasion? Request the kitchen table, where diner's can watch all the behind-the-scenes restaurant action.
