About 15-20 years ago I would have a business lunch here on occasion. I was young and appreciated a football-sized calzone, which is one of the things that made them famous. I met some friends here for dinner last night since they live in the burbs and one of the parties requested Italian food. I read the reviews before going out and was hoping for the best. What a disappointment. The vegetarian antipasti consisted of carrots, celery, pickle slices, provolone and peppers. The meat version had what looked like salami. The dinner salad was iceberg lettuce, drenched in blue cheese with some crappy store bought croutons. The highlight of the meal was the garlic bread and even that was mediocre at best. I ordered what had to be the worst Eggplant Parmesan I?ve ever had. It was smothered in cheese but was almost 100% void of any sauce. I had to ask for a side of sauce which helped make it edible. My girlfriend split a vegi calzone which was covered with cold cheese that had not melted, like you might see in a salad. We happened to bring our own wine for a special occasion which the waitress practically ruined by popping the cork and then pouring each of our glasses to near the rim in some crappy glassware so you couldn?t swirl the wine to let it breathe. My only recommendation is that if you end up here, try the pizza and hope it is better than any of the food our party of 6 received.
Pros: The size of calzone - but does it matter when they aren't good?
Cons: Food, service, decor
