    Food was horrible, Margarita pizza, shrimp risotto, Caesar salad. Very tasteless and not even hot. The waiter was very nice, but seemed very overworked so we didn’t feel like the service was very good, but nothing personal. The bread didn’t even come until we had to ask for it with our appetizer salad.  Overall I wouldn’t return anytime soon.
