Two thumbs down...way down!!!

Pretty strange atmosphere...country decor, Italian selections on menu in addition to some chicken and steak selections.

I was torn between a Tour of Italy and a Pick 2 surf/turf option. I chose the later...and was greatly disappointed. The proteins were about 5oz each...streak was very thin and over cooked-med when I asked for med rare and the Bourbon salmon was dry and flavourless.  The server immediately saw my disappointment and took it back and fired the Tour.
The Tour came our hot.  The lasagna tasted homemade but the chicken parm didn't.  It was a breaded tender drowned in sauce which then made it soggy.  It also smelled yeasty which made me a little concerned.  The Alfredo sauce was dry, very grainy...and lacked salt.  $15.59
The side of potato wedges were very good.  The had a nice coating and were crunchy. $1.79

The calzone was good...although was somewhat skimpy on cheese. Dough was good...chewy and crusty in all the right places.  $8.59 but a 1.75 for extra toppings!
They offered a wide variety of desserts...but I had to ask for my Chocolate Cake twice.  It was worth the wait.  Clearly homemade, huge slice and very fresh! $5.50

Kids meal lasagna was slightly skimpy...didn't include a beverage. $5.50

Our server was very nice and friendly but very slow.  The place was not overly busy but had steady business.  The median age is about 65...keep in mind our 12 year old brought it down.

We over heard another patron ask about adult beverages...nope...but customers are welcome to bring them in.  We then spotted two tables bring in wine but they were given mixed matched wine glasses.

Total bill...41.41...so NOT worth it!
