Yes! Went there often. The salad with the noodles was strange but very good. The fried mozzarella was done somewhat like a deep fried grilled cheese sandwich. SO good. Hubs and I went there on dates a lot. I miss it still. I liked Giovannis very much as well -- their soups were amazing.

It very well may have been mama brava's. That sounds familiar. We used to go there a lot. That place was so good!

I remember Pasta Garden had a big-arse bowl of spaghetti, which was literally a pound of pasta, for like 10 bucks. I remember wiping it out one time back in HS

I used to frequent pasta garden, loved the shrimp and eggplant rollotini.

That place went to shite. If it weren't for the road going in, it would have died on its own. You can bank on that truth.

Yeah it was the dimly lit pizza/pasta place next to orange Julius. I remember the food being really good for being a "mall restaurant"

When something changed. I'm guessing management, because it went from "I like this place" to "What the frick am I doing here?"

I can sort of remember a tv commercial they ran, trying to bring bidness back. I remember because there was a woman in the commercial that I went to highschool with.
