Crappy service and even crappier food. If you like a hostess with a bad attitude, warm ceasar salad, meatballs tasting exactly like they came out of a Chef Boyardee can and chicken so dry and over cooked that you literally can't cut it with a knife and get charged out the wazoo for it, by all means...go to Fontanella's. I'm not exaggerating. I ordered a chicken dish, supposedly stuffed with Prosciutto and mozerella, breaded and served with Marsala sauce. Sounds good, right? When I first tried to cut in to the first piece, my knife wouldn't even cut through the chicken, I thought maybe it was just the end that was overdone or maybe it was the cheap silverware that was bent and looked like if came from a soup kitchen. I was very tired and hungry and decided to make the best of it and continued to try and cut through the chicken, basically I ended up tearing apart the chicken to get to the center ""stuffing"" which in no way, shape or form had prosciutto or mozerella in it, just some kind of mushroomy paste. I dug though and basically ate the edible pieces of chicken and mushrooms from the sauce. The second piece was even worse and by this time I was too far in to send it back. Basically, I'm pretty sure I was served food from yesterday or even older that was heated through and camoflouged with a mushroom sauce or previously frozen. Honestly, I can't believe they actually put this on a plate and served it, then charged $16 for it. It was truly disgusting and inedible. The side of meatballs my boyfriend ordered for $4 consisted of two pre-packaged meatballs, again YUCK! When the waiter came and asked how my food was, I told him I could only eat the inside and he was clearly embarrassed at the site of the leathery remains. I DO NOT RECOMMEND. Was a huge waste of money on what was supposed to be a treat for us after a long work week, I doubt they will be in business much longer.
