I've eaten here a few times in the last couple of months at the Magazine and State location. Parking is ok. The restaurant is clean and the staff (everytime), is friendly, helpful and polite.
The first time I ate here with my girl (Babycakes) in December, I had an Italian Deli sandwich. It was very tasty! Crunchy, flavorful focaccia bread with quality ingredients of turkey, ham, pancetta, provolone cheese and dill aioli with a cold salad of cherry tomatoes, capers, fresh basil, red onions and olive oil. Sizewise, I would have liked a larger sandwich, but given the ingredients and price, I guess it was about right. Babycakes won the evening with an appetizer of Roasted Cauliflower with roasted garlic and a soft herbed goat cheese butter, and an Italian Salami salad of Mixed greens, marinated artichokes, red onions, roasted cherry tomatoes, capers and walnuts mixed with strips of hard salami, served with basil pesto vinaigrette. The appetizer was so good, Babycakes only gave me a bite and ate the rest herself (grrrr)! I enjoyed it so much, I came back for lunch the next day, and ordered the same app and salad for myself!! Delicious!
Last week we returned, to find out the Roasted Cauliflower appetizer was seasonal and not offered at that time (darn it). I ordered a gumbo pizza. It was ok. I didn't like the Andouille sausage (kind of greasy) and pickled okra I felt didn't go with the pizza. Babycakes ordered a Eggplant Reginelli appetizer (Whole roasted eggplant with olive oil, fresh garlic and fontina, topped with a soft herbed goat cheese butter). It was just ok. She had the Italian Salami salad again.
Note to Reginelli's: Get that Roasted Cauliflower on the menu.....please!!!
