The Penne alla Vodka is the best I've ever had - including homemade. Fantastic flavor and if you add chicken, you end up getting a lot.

Both pasta dishes were fantastic. the pasta was well cooked and the portions were huge. the shrimp in the Caballo Blanco were perfectly cooked and were plentiful. Thw only critiques on this pasta dish is that it needed more garlic and the cheese needs to be on the side as the pasta is it just melted on top of it and was not mixable. the Lucky Penne , sauce was very nice and had a nice spicy kick. again only real critique is the cheese wad on top of the pasta and that the veggies could have been cooked a little longer. overall very solid meals

The food was just barely edible. The Rigatoni Bolognese was bitter and very bland, as well as being overcooked. They wrap the bread in plastic wrap which imparts an odd taste on the bread, which was also very rubbery. The Tiramisu was not bad but not what I would expect from a restaurant. It was more like grocery bought.
Overall very displeased with the food, cant say I will roll the dice with this restaurant again but I hope they normally do better.

Tortellini Crema with added chicken had a healthy amount of chicken - yummy!

Excellent food! Awesome portion sizes. The shrimp, mussels and clams were all so tasty and plentiful. Would definitely order from here again.
