Q: positive

A: holy shit i love this place. I have been a regular here for years. Eating at oregano's after a long work/school week is really something to look forward to. The food is great. Its reasonably priced, the portions are huge, and the drinks are tall. don't expect anything CRAZY culinary creations here, its just not part of the restaurant's culture. The food is simple and everything is tasty. I usually go with the Sausage Sandwich, or one of the pasta dishes with whole grain pasta, and one of their giant meat balls. Its always filling, always good. Sure the wait is long, but they always have free pizza, drinks, and deserts while you are waiting. Service is always great. Friendly, prompt, and they don't bother you when you don't need them. All of the servers are always willing to play along with my friends and our inappropriate conversations, challenges, etc.

Q: negative

A: I was not impressed with this place at all. They are always packed so I thought it would be worth checking out...I was wrong. When we went it was not terribly busy as it normally is. Our service was horrible!! It took our waitress about 30 mins to even come back to take our order. I even flagged someone down to take it. The food was...eh...okay. If you are looking for larger portions...don't come here. It is expensive for what you get. I do like that they use local products, which I support. From start to finish we were there for well over an hour and a half, most of the time just waiting. It was awful. The staff acted like we were a bother to them. When I asked a girl if she could help she told me that we were not one of her tables but she would try to find someone. So, needless to say we won't be returning. It's too bad because I had high hopes for this place.

Q: negative

A:
I keep trying to like this place and each time this place just disappoints. On this particular occasion we went and the place was empty, which is a hard feat in itself. The food bar was messy, and most of the items were only half available. The bowls seem to keep getting smaller. They also don't much service oriented people around, everyone was pretty snippy and rude, though the employees were congregated at the front of the restaurant playing on their cell phones and speaking inappropriately with us within ear shot. We went the whole meal without refills and to check up on us. I know this is a "fast food diy" concept restaurant but for the prices and the fact that there are employees doing nothing a little attention would have done well by this place. Meh, is the best this place gets.
