"The food at this restaurant is consistently good, that much I will give them. However, let's be honest... it is not gourmet Italian cuisine where someone's grandmother is handcrafting the pasta dough in small batches in Little Italy. I understand that inflation is a real issue nowadays, but whenever I order takeout from here for my wife and myself, I always feel like I have spent too much money for what we receive once we get it home. For example, tonight's meal, which included a Tortellini entree, an appetizer of three meatballs, and a large salad to share, cost us $40. However, when we received the food, it seemed like we were given leftovers of pre-made salad and a small portion of pasta, with the exception of the meatball appetizer. It was definitely not worth $40."
