Review content:
The restaurant is located on a main street that appears to be dying during the day but has more energy in the evening. We were greeted promptly, then waited 20 minutes for our wine. We soon became aware of just how understaffed they were. The room is small, maybe holding 60 if it was packed, with two people serving. Our server was not only taking drink orders, she was pouring them (no bartender?). She was hustling orders in and food out; she felt badly that we had to wait so long to have our order taken that she put ours at the top. The other ""server"" appeared to have two tables that were concluding their meals. Her efforts consisted of walking rapidly up and down the aisle, flipping her ponytail and being very careful to not make eye contact with anyone. The servers are evidently expected to clear and re-set the tables which further reduces service to the diners. I actually felt sorry for our server as she was extremely pleasant and didn't like not being able to pay attention to her tables. I'll mention the bread, which was served immediately accompanied by an olive oil and balsamic dip and it was quite good. My husband ordered the veal scallopini which he thought was good and I thought was fine. I ordered baked spaghetti. (Remember, it's an Italian restaurant. If they can't do the basic spaghetti what are chances the rest of the menu will be good?) Again, I thought it was fine. It was served with a combination bechamel and red sauce and was to be baked. I'm fairly certain it was broiled to expedite serving. It was so bland... I asked for red peppers and was delighted they offered chopped red peppers in olive oil. Once I added that, the spaghetti became quite tasty. Salads are served after the entre (their bow to the European way) so we didn't have one, nor did anyone else around us order one. The Tiramisu for dessert was wonderful as it wasn't overwhelmingly sweet (and shouldn't be). Will be go back? Quite possibly. However next time it will be to try the wood fired pizza!
Pros: Pleasant atmosphere
Cons: Too lightly staffed
