text: Nothing to see here, move along.\n\nMediocre food. Bland. Overcooked. Gummy/Pasty Pasta.\n\nNot horrible, but with the number of really good independent Italian restaurants in the valley - why waste your time and money?\n\nSpecifics: \nManicotti - Filled with a tasteless ricotta cheese paste that could double as drywall filler, topped with warm crushed tomatoes and a couple shreds of melted mozzarella.\n\nFettuccine Alfredo - The pasta was sticky and gummy. The \"Alfredo\" sauce was a plain white sauce with flecks of something that may have been an attempt at seasoning.\n\nItalian Sausage - Way overcooked, dry, like trying to saw wood when cutting into it. Nicely spicy though.\n\nChicken Piccata - Beaten and lightly fried the cutlet was nonetheless dry. Topped with a mixture of mushrooms, capers, and tomatoes. Not just topped, buried under. Disappointing and still the best dish served.
