Very nice ambiance... that I would give a 5. But the food, I would give a 1 or a 2... which is why the 3 star rating.

If they focused more on making legitimate Italian food and less on the resort-like decor, maybe it could be upgraded to a 4 star, but neither my co-worker nor I were remotely impressed by the food.

I got chicken fettuccine alfredo, and I would swear the noodles were more akin to the egg noodles you buy at any supermarket for chicken noodle soup. They were longer to match the length of what fettuccine noodles should look like, but they were NOT real Italian noodles or even a good replica.

The alfredo sauce was thin and barely recognizable as an alfredo. My friend's brocolli was almost entirely raw and her penne was not even close to al dente.

Someone in management offered to re-make hers as she is the type that would say she was disappointed, but yeah, overall, if you had let either her or I cook up our own Italian meal in the kitchen (and we arent italian or even trained chefs), both she and I could have made a tastier dish.

Two Thumbs down for food.
