My goodnessssss. As soon as I saw the bread with a warmed olive oil & balsamic dip with a roasted garlic clove, it was a wrap. Didnt' give that bread a chance to be photographed. Delicious! It's a bit shocking to me how it was the first time I've come across that in my 10 years of living here. I was a bit nervous at the price point of the Lasagna Al Forno especially because I've dropped big bucks in hopes of legit Italian food before to grave disappointment, but I was blown away at the size! The thing nearly took up the entire to-go box! Although not my absolute favorite sauce, there's no way I'm going to deduct them a star. It had a hearty helping of meat with quality ingredients. Definitely at least 2-3 meals for me (especially after scarfing down that bread). The Tiramisu was also made with quality ingredients - only wished it had a little more espresso soaked into those lady fingers.
The fact that I took a photo of how big the lasagna was before taking a bite and the time I'm taking to write this Bible-sized review speaks volumes. Growing up in the Philly area with my italian family members in NY & NJ, you'll have to take my word on this one (and I say that with a complete lack of humility to prove my Italian bloodline).

The price and amount of servings is why I choose to eat here. The Pollo Piccata and Spaghetti and Meatballs were filling, with leftovers. The roasted veggies espciallg the potatoes were crispy and soft without being mushy.
Antipasti Plate as an appetizer would might as well be a meal in itself!

The Lasagna Al Forno portion was TINY for how expensive it was. The tomato sauce was good, but overall just average and not worth the price. The Homemade Gnocchi with gorgonzola sauce was pretty flavorless. The focaccia was a nice surprise and the most delicious part of everything! Reason I gave 3 stars instead of 2

this is completely a handmade made dish. every single one is different, but exceptional. it's not overly salty, it's rich, very well balanced, crisp, soft and chewy from the eggplant, and the size is exceptional. I tried this dish, and I haven't ordered anything else since!

I've never had Eggplant Parmesan , but it blew my mind! The tomato sauce was the perfect balance of rich, salty, and sweet. The eggplant was tender, and fried perfectly. The cheese was warm and gooey, and the bread they served with it was the most delicious, warm focaccia bread I've ever had. This was such a simple dish, but outstanding! I've eaten here 3x and each of those meals have exceeded my expectations.
This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants on DD, and this is one of the best meals I've ever had from DD. That's saying a lot too because I order through DD multiple times a day, and this is probably my favorite meal.
