had this to say:
Was introduced to the place by a friend. We went there for dinner. Jessica our waitress suggested a Martini to start and the owner came to our table introduced herself and gave us a dessert menu. I had the cherries jubilee which was very delicious. The both of us had a dish that was a Thursday special. I do not remember the name of the dish, it had Shrimp cheese and noodles. (I think fettuccine?) The dish was very good. I had the minestrone soup which was very good. (Recommended by a regular patron to the restaurant.) Our check was $100.95.

I ordered the chicken Alfredo with broccoli because It has been awhile since I've had Alfredo. I paid the $3 extra for the Italian wedding soup with my entrée. I ordered the bananas foster for dessert because I couldn't pass up the opportunity! Not many restaurants have bananas fosters. I enjoyed the meal and would very much recommend dining here.

A very pleasant experience all around. I was skeptical by the negative reviews until I tried it myself and to be honest I think there's just too many Karen's in this world because everything I ate was delicious
