First and foremost, the pasta is NOT homemade......at least the spaghetti and fettuccini are not, they come from a box...the other pastas on the menu, I did not try so I do not know. Considering the size of the place I find it hard to believe that they have the capabilities nor the room to make any homemade pasta there, unless it made offsite.
Second - no bread or water is complimentary, you read that right, you have to pay for water and bread if you would like it with you meal. No drinks are complimentary. When we said we would split a water the waitress gave us a very nasty look. A very small glass (maybe 3 ounce) of local Geneva wine was $10.
Third - the prices are exorbitant. $28 for chicken parmesan.$20 for fettuccini (if you want chicken chunks of chicken, not a whole breast)) with it it is another $9.) Spaghetti is $18, but if you want 2 meatballs it is another $8, that is correct $4 for one meatball and you cannot order one, you MUST buy 2. dinners do, however, come with a small salad.
Fourth - cleanliness is not a priority here. Not the cleanest tables nor floor, and do NOT go to the restroom and see what is behind the curtain....oh my god! one restroom, with 2 stalls....one stall labeled for men, and one stall labeled for women....you read that correctly also...one room, 2 toilets.......my my my. The place is extremely over-crowded, the couple next to us were less than 3 feet away.
Finally - the food was good, but not THAT good: for 2 meals with one water and one glass of wine + tip it was $77.....needless to say we will never go back, much cleaner and better places to eat in GOTL for a lot less money that are just as good, if nor better.....and, i do not know how it is legal, they add a 3.5 % surcharge to your bill for eating in the place and not getting your food to go.
