Mr. Guido Says: **1/2
Food: Minestrone soup, Chicken Parmigiana with side of spaghetti. Minestrone was pretty good, with plenty of vegetables. Chicken was grilled, which is not the traditional preparation. Chicken Parm was competent but seemed to remind me that I was eating at a chain as opposed to my grandma's house. Service was pushy, and the staff seemed rather corporate. Atmosphere was also very corporate, with Italian writing all over the walls - trying too hard. Overall the food was ok, however I would not consider it to be an authentic Italian dining experience.

Caesar salad, chicken marsala, side of spaghetti. Salad was decent, but not memorable. Chicken marsala was prepared grilled, and had a somewhat gel-like coating and consistency and sauce was too thick. Spaghetti was thick and slimy. Service was atrocious. Never make the mistake of saying you have never been there before, or else the waitress will walk you through the entire menu, including when the grapes were harvested. Also they do not seem to care about age restriction on drinking, and would not take no for an answer for declining a glass of wine or cocktail. Wanted to punch waitress in face as she would not stop putting her hand on back of Mr. Guido's chair. Stated the obvious, such as what to do with the dish of oil. Atmosphere was over the top and trying too hard, but still failed miserably. Instructional Italian lessons playing over the bathroom speakers was not only creepy, but completely unnecessary. Overall horrible dining experience, and left feeling slightly violent
