I don't even know where to begin from the fact that we had a reservation for 10 and still had to wait, to the LOUD, overcrowded dining room, to the non-existent ""all-you-can-eat"" menu. I don't even like Bucca di Beppo and I'd go there over this place any day of the week. At least Bucca's isn't pretending to be something it's not. Maggiano's boasts about their ""from scratch"" kitchen then serves food that tastes like a frozen dinner. This place is such a massive, impersonal operation I don't even know why anyone would go there unless they just wanted to eat themselves to death and didn't care how they did it. I'd rather have a normal portion done WELL than 2 lbs of overcooked chicken or a cinder block of tasteless lasagna. Actually, you probably couldn't eat yourself to death becuase the service is so slow.
Pros: Nice lighting
Cons: Everything else
