Daniel GordonNovember 16, 2011smell like garlic when you leave or otherwise you haven't experienced it to the fullest extent
Edward KMay 26, 2013Waiters and servers are way undertrained and unprofessional. Don't expect to be treated kindly while waiting for a table.
Steve BeestonAugust 28, 2015Nothing. Really bad meal. Don't go. Nothing tastes of garlic, food is cold or over cooked. It's a tourist trap. Don't go!
Alisha BAugust 23, 2012Service here sucks. I feel like I'm at a circus. Don't bother wasting your money on the drinks, they suck, save it to buy another entree cause they're that small. Just don't even come.
C. CalvinMay 27, 2013Bad food, servers who try to rush you out. Try Molianis or Giordanos next door, a third the price and food you won't forget.
Kurt GrizzardJune 9, 2012Food is great especially the 40 garlic clove chicken but the service is horrible
Kitt McCurdySeptember 13, 2010This place is great for a novelty dining experience but the service is stinking!
Silvia EdgellApril 5, 2015Overpriced and nothing special. Service was awful. Not worth the visit specially with so many options around.
Reid MainJuly 28, 2014Atmosphere is horrible. Don't eat here if you want to be able to have a conversation.
