they dumped our leftovers

by seattlesemiregular at Citysearch

The waiter said that he was going to box up our leftovers; he took them to get boxed up; after a very long wait, I went to find him and he told me he forgot. He went back to look for them and then came back to let me know the leftovers had been dumped. So much for lunch.

I have never had a waiter take food to be boxed, forgot them and then return empty handed.

I am not a happy camper. s.

• Pros: standard buca di beppo food
• Cons: we wanted to take home our leftovers.

Do NOT Waste Your Time!

by BritDolan at Citysearch

OK, I get that these chefs are pumping out large portions of a ton of dishes to multiple tables very quickly, but the food totally isn't worth the atmosphere. Everything is undercooked or overcooked or super greasy or super bland. I don't think anything on the menu is traditionally italian. Maybe the idea was, but not how it comes to your table, plus the place if full of prom-going teenagers most weekends.

• Pros: Friendly Service & Good Group Atmosphere
• Cons: The Food Stinks!

Very disappointing

by scuttlebutt333 at Citysearch

The food was terrible - We ordered the Salmon Pesto and it was well below my expectations. The side of broccoli was frozen and reheated in a microwave and had a strange taste to it. The Salmon was tough and had strong fish smell to it. The Fettuccine Alfredo Pasta was just bland and oily and the Chicken Parmesan was tough and salty. Also our service was just terrible. We felt rushed and forgotten. We didn't even get our bread and had to ask for it. When the food came we didn't even get our utensils! For 15.99 a plate I definitely expect good food - this place was a big waste of time and money.

• Pros: Interior
• Cons: Bad service and bad food

Best Itallian

by SelinaSpencer at Citysearch

I was in Seattle for a meeting and this place was with in walking distance to our hotel. It is the best I have ever had. I can never walk into a Olive Garden again. We have nothing like this in Spokane I hope some day you will expand. I had the Manicottie (sp) and Chicken Alfredo and oh my gosh don't skimp and buy the small bread you will want the large. I had so much left that I brought it on the Plane to Spokane to share with my family. Vety friendly and helpful staff also. The price was perfect for all the food you get.

• Pros: walking distance from a good hotel
• Cons: none that I seen ( I did not see the bathroom though)

Fun time for the whole family

by uwhusky91 at Citysearch

This is always a place that my family looks forward to going to. In addition to good food, the atmosphere is fun, and the waitstaff makes it all a good time. You definitely get lots of food, and lots to take home afterwards. The ambience and family-style atmosphere make it a great dinner experience for large groups! It's a place to bring your friends, where you can be loud and have a good time.
