Industrial Italian. I really like their warm rigatoni spinach salad, with gorgonzola and bacon (probably because it's very simple and straightforward like Italian cooking should be) and their calzone is good except that the chicken is in little cubes and reminds me of the way that Taco Bell used to do their chicken. (Shudder) Prawns Portofino used to be my favorite dish as a kid so I still have fond memories of this place, but there are better out there. Frankly, even Florentines might be better for industrial Italian. For the Real Deal, go elsewhere.

Great cheesy pizza, good pastas.. One of the best Italian restaurants in the bay area (it's a "micro-chain"). If you like cheese on your pizza, then this is the place for you. Very nice, doughy crust. Lots of topping choices.

The pasta is good, but not terrific, meatballs are a bit "tough."

Often crowded on weekends, but it's worth the visit.
