Italian sausage, red onion, garlic and bell pepper are mixed together in a red sauce, served over angel hair pasta. Two chicken breasts were dredged in masa flour, then sauteed and served over a thick pool of cheese, jalapeno, onion, tomato and cumin. A small pasta side dish was topped with a picante marinara. The two flavors fought for domination instead of working together. It's flavorful and satisfying, without kicking up the fat content.

Prices are reasonable, the helpings are ample and the service is friendly and attentive, and responsible enough to ask why a dish was left half full. Reviewers do not notify restaurants in advance of their visits. The newspaper pays for all meals. All rights reserved. Email the webmaster .
