Mr. Guido Says: ***1/2
Food: linguine in pesto sauce. Pesto sauce was ok but seemed to be a bit watery; the oil separated from the pesto. Portions were huge. Pasta was cooked fairly well, though not as al dente as it could be. All in all, everything was competent, but nothing stood out as extra special. Atmosphere was casual and a bit busy/noisy due to proximity to the front pizza area. Prices were average for a standard long island Italian restaurant.

Chicken in light white wine marinara sauce with fresh tomatoes and fresh mozzarella with side of fettuccine alfredo. Garlic knots were sub-par due to light coating of garlic on top and no saturation throughout the knot. Major complaint is that there is an extra charge for alfredo. Chicken was well prepared and tomatoes maintained some crispness although cooked. Fettuccine sauce separated as night went on and did not keep overnight well. Main drawback of a Friday night visit is that the pizza section also doubles as an extension of the dining room when it gets too busy, so an abundance of brats from the movie theater next door were running amok. Waiter kept ignoring my empty water glass, even though I sat there choking and dying. Overall your standard Long Island Italian restaurant.
