*NEW* Bocconcini: Mozzarealla Bocconcini, Grape Tomatoes and Pesto Sauce – $7.50
Rank out of 7: 4
This is a supermarket-quality salad. It’s neither bad nor good. The presentation is cute but not enough so to be a must-have.
*NEW* Arrabbiata: Pennette Pasta, Spicy Tomato Sauce and Buttery Shrimp – $9.25
Rank out of 7: 5
This was a pleasant surprise. The pasta was a little al dente for our preferences, but not as bad as the dishes here usually are. The shrimp weren’t too fishy, and the sauce was decently spiced.
*NEW* Quattro Formaggi: Pennette Pasta and Four-Cheese Sauce – $6.75
Rank out of 7: 3
This looks like something you’d find in a college cafeteria, but it wasn’t as gross as it seemed. Still, you could microwave a freezer meal at home for the same quality.
*NEW* Chocolate Cannoli: Chocolate-Covered Cannoli Shell with Peanut Butter-Ricotta Filling – $5.75
Rank out of 7: 2
This was so close to being good. The chocolate was tasty, and the peanut butter ricotta filling was amazing. However, the cannoli shell is inedible. It has the taste and texture of chalk.
Peroni Pilsner (5.1% ABV) – $6.50 for 6 oz., $11.00 for 12 oz.
Peroni Brewery describes their beer as “a crisp and refreshing beer with a delicate balance of bitterness, citrus and spicy aromatic notes, combined with a fast and clean finish.”
Italian White Sangria – $12.00
Rank out of 7: 2
Usually, when a Sangria beverage of this price contains more juice than wine, we would complain. However, since the wine in this drink tasted particularly cheap and unpleasant, in this case it was somewhat of a relief. The drink was supposed to contain Prosecco, however this was unidentifiable from the lack of fizz in the drink.
Italian Red Sangria – $12.00
Rank out of 7: 2
Have you ever put red wine in the microwave? That’s what this is. We thought sangria came with ice and fruit, but this was just a room temperature liquid. The flavor was fruity, so it could have been really good, but as it got hotter, it was just too warm to drink.
Italian Margarita with Limoncello and Tequila – $12.00
Rank out of 7: 4
The margarita was quite good as it tasted almost like a melting lemon ice dessert. However, there didn’t seem to be much liquor in the drink, as we didn’t taste much besides the faint hint of tequila. Overall, this is a tasty drink, but don’t expect to get much alcohol for your money here.
