The menu seems to be ok... anyone have any thoughts on this place? Wed Apr 07 16:06:39 -0700 2004 0 JHP 1 1114500 I think its a good place overall. I had a salad w/artichoke in it that i loved. I've also really enjoyed the pizzas. On one visit, three of us ordered a grilled seafood special that tasted ok but we all got a little ill from it. Still, I would happily go back, but I would avoid the seafood. They give you a nice assortment of breads, olives, and some antipasti meat when you sit down.
