Going tonight for first time - any suggestions?

I'm thinking sautéed oysters over angel hair, since it's oyster fest weekend.

Thanks in advance!

I got the lasagna once and it was frozen in the middle. Took it off my list.

So get the lasagna I guess?

I'm a fan of the cannelloni. I'm one of the few who doesn't go ga ga over the thick corn and crab soup. Too thick, not enough crab and the corn wasn't fresh. Probably frozen. Don't take that to mean I don't enjoy the restaurant because I do, very much. There are some threads recommending some other dishes.

Here's one.

I didn't take it off the list because the lasagna had been frozen. I took it off the list because the lasagna was still frozen.

That would be troublesome with the lasagna. I'm just not a fan of frozen or canned corn with one exception that's shoepeg white corn in the can. I like it.

I like the canelloni (never frozen), and they usually have a pappardelle dish that is killer.

Enjoy!

Finally ordered this a couple weeks ago and it was quite delicious. Vincent got us some of their limoncello ice cream too and it was very tasty.

I see them loading all kinds of premade stuff in the parking lot at Restaurant Depot on the regular. This doesn't surprise me.

Cannelonni. Always and forever the cannelloni .. even if you're not normally a fan of it.

Thanks all. I'm taking others' advice to go there hungry. Hungry already!

Not really my style of Italian restaurant. And I suspect a lot of their stuff is pre-made.

I'm not a huge fan of the place, myself, but what on their menu would be pre-made?

It's mostly all just a bunch of basic run of the mill Italian stuff that any semi-trained kitchen staff should be able to crank out with relative ease.

Well the lasagna was frozen. So that's one thing.

Been there once. One of the best meals I can ever remember having. This reminds me - I have to go back!
