What is the sentiment of the following review?
I went here with my folks last Saturday as they were in town for a visit and some of their friends had told them that Salerno's had the best "authentic Italian" around. The first thing I noticed was the price of the menu items. Not only did the prices seem a tad high for a suburban strip mall Italian joint with no music and essentially zero atmosphere, they were a full $2.00 higher than the take-out menu my Mom had picked up just days before we went. That being said, it wasn't ridiculously expensive, and I was dying for some excellent Pollo Marsala. So I decided to plunk down my $16.75 and enjoy a great meal. What was brought to me was mediocre chicken and mushroom soup on a plate. The Marsala sauce was as thin as water, and the meat looked like someone had just pinched random chunks off a cooked chicken and plunked them on the plate. Accompanying the meal was the blandest minestrone I've ever had, and a bowl full of angel hair pasta with about two tablespoons of marinara on top that could easily have come out of a Ragu jar. The highlight of the entire experience was when someone at the next table over asked the waiter what was in the spring mix salad, and his answer was "it looks like weeds". I also found it interesting that this rather well-built muscular waiter needed to carry things as light as drinks and salads on a noisy plastic rolling cart. Needless to say, it was not worth the money. I see some people raving about the pizza, but I prefer New York style pizza, so I can't imagine going back to this restaurant for any reason.
