for tonight: Skillman restaurant?

Last minute, but I could use a recommendation for a diner/restaurant for tonight. I'm taking my elderly mom for a doctors appt right off of 206, around the Shop Rite in Skillman. I'm not terribly familiar with that area. I'm looking for someplace easy and not too fussy. My parents are not adventurous diners, so ethnic is out, but they do love Italian
By the time the appt is over it will be 7:30, and I have to drive them back to our meeting spot in Jackson at the outlet mall. It could be anywhere along the way, just not out of the way. Something easy would be best, and my mother uses a walker, so stairs are a no no. Any thoughts, other than chain places?

    Also in Rocky Hill is the Rocky Hill Inn. I'm afraid I don't know about stairs at this restaurant but you could give them a quick call and ask.

      One 53 in Rocky Hill, on 518, less than 5 minutes from the 206/518 intersection (Shop Rite).

      Great pasta for your parents and a nice selection of other items for you. They have a few steps up to their front door, but if you go inside, you can open their side door along the driveway for your mother. That way she can avoid the steps.

      Make a reservation on opentable or call ahead.
