text: I really hope that the hype behind this place is that it once was much better and people are latching on to the nostalgia This was one of the most mediocre restaurants I have visited nWe made reservations for pm on a Saturday night and the place was packed It is located in a small strip mall and would be easy to miss We were promptly seated and that is when everything started to go downhill It took minutes to even get acknowledged and place our drink order Their gnocchi and pasta are not made in house I am not sure what would compel someone to pay for gnocchi out of a package when I can get delicious gnocchi from Trader Joes and toss in some pancetta for I opted for their Frutti di Mare which was linguini in runny arrabiata sauce with an assortment of seafood The husband had their carbonara which ranks among the worst I have ever had in the states I am not even comparing this to Italy standards While two of the three members of the party were still eating one of the peoples plates got taken away to be boxed up Awkward The server ignored our table pretty much most of the time and then rushed us out at the end I would not come back nor recommend this place It is all hype
