Everything about that place is terrible. The interior is horrifically tacky, everything on the menu is overpriced, and the food is complete garbage. It is an affront to Italian food.

It is like they took all the Italian stereotypes, dialed them up to an 11, and made them extra trashy to appeal to overweight americans. Seriously, the food is bland and greasy as hell. I have unfortunately eaten there twice, and both times were godawful. The food literally tastes like those nasty frozen meals you can buy at the grocery store.

I can confidently say it is one of the worst restaurants I have ever had the misfortune of eating at.

It is like a nasty, trashy, ghetto version of Olive Garden (and that is saying something).




























Full disclosure: Olive Garden is my guilty pleasure.

I went to one once and they had borderline porn images in the bathrooms, and also the layout was literally a maze.

Ugh, I remember going to one once b/c my aunt insisted it was high class and great food. I agree w/ everything you said, overpriced, gaudy design, horrible food (that was my first "Margherita pizza" and it convinced me that such pizzas are disgusting and I avoided trying any others for years), even the bathrooms sucked.

I don't care for Olive Garden either, though. My Italian chain guilty pleasure is Romano's Macaroni Grill, though it's uncommon to find one anymore. Although, full disclosure: I'm not that big on Italian in general, seems like nearly everyone else considers it their favorite cuisine.

They put crazy amounts of garlic both in and on everything. Also slightly more pricey than I'd like. Even then, I prefer Buca over Olive Garden, if I had to choose between only the two. Add Carino's to the mix, and that one would win between the three. *shrugs*

Oh yeah, I forgot about Carrabbas. They're the best. Only ever seen one location, sadly. Guess I live in the wrong areas.

I don't like any Italian restaurants because I can make the same food at home for 1/10th of the price and it tastes way better.

You thought it would be good?
You need to find a real Italian place, where the chefs are from Italy, or they use their Italian grandmother's recipes.
