had read a lot of rave reviews through one review site and few bad ones on another. Suffice to say I went in with an open mind and yes I found it very average at best.
The place is very clean, the employees well presented with great aprons how ever ......
When arriving there was a table that had been vacated and full of plates, leftovers and pizza trays sitting there for 20 minutes or more and another table was not cleaned for at least 10 minutes. It was not fully booked.
there is no multitasking between staff - e.g drink/coffee staff only touch drink/coffee parafanalia.
The food came out within an acceptable time frame. Prices average so about $21-$24 for main courses.
I ordered a tortellini con pollo main and the only difference between the look in size between it and a friends entree carbonara was the plate size. Another friend that had the gnocci agreed with myself because his serving size looked like mine. he thought maybe the entre plate was a little shallower. Hard to tell.
Another friend of mine had the spaghetti marinara and that looked nice as well as a generous serving.
the fifth person had a calzone that looked big but didnt look like it had enough sauce.
the water was nice and cold which I loved.
My con pollo .... well ..... the chicken was dry and quite a few pieces tasted pan burnt and the capsicum tasted of vinegar suggesting they used store bought jar marinated capsicum strips which added to the acidity of the tomato and all I could taste was vinegar.
The tortellini itself had no flavour. I guess it was al dente but you could not tell what meat was inside. It was very firm and perfectly uniform.
At the top of the menu they DO state they use Barilla pasta so long life dry pasta rather than fresh.

Approximate cost: $28

Have been for breakfast a few times and always impressed with the generous servings and value for money - very reasonably priced for big servings. There's quite a lot on the breakfast menu - larger than most breakfast places I have been to before. the coffee is always top quality too.
