I am writing this review in response to the only other one I saw for this
restaurant on this website. I live in burnsville and probably eat at
this place once every two weeks. The atmosphere is warm, the service
usually above average, and the food seldom disappoints. The only real
criticism I have is that on occasion the level of spice has been above
what I was expecting. You can't really go wrong with their "build
your own pasta entre" sheet, which is both idiot-proof (you fill
out a form on your table by choosing from various options and then hand
it in to your waiter, thus removing typos and memory issues) and affordable,
running around seven dollars. If you want to substitute shrimp for
the chicken option I believe it is an extra two dollars. I've never
had their calamari fritti before so I cannot attest to the quality of
their batter, but most everything else I've had there was pretty
tasty. As far as them running out of everything, that may have been a
fluke occurrence. The establishment has never run out of anything
on any of the 50+ times I've eaten there. Maybe it was a holiday and
they were exceptionally busy? I cannot say why this happened to the
other reviewer, to be fair.
I would (and often do) still highly recommend this restaurant to anyone
who enjoys italian cuisine in a relaxed yet respectable atmosphere
that is both suitable for dates as well as for the entire family.
