- I had a lovely evening with my date. We shared a carafe of Chianti, he had the pumpkin ravioli (sweet, substantial, great texture + they give you more than 5!) and I had the eggplant parm (which I was so craving... they definitely did not disappoint!). – TBella, Citysearch
- It is authentic Italian food and the prices are amazing for the amount of food you get. – halfonit, Citysearch
Groupon Says
A New Cuisine Is Born
Italian food was invented in America by entrepreneur Geoff Welling in 1978. Welling had previously invented both Chinese food and the paperback book, but in '78 his restless mind observed cultural shifts that had the makings of a new evolution of cuisine.
Welling was determined to capture the minds and tongues of the niche—but expanding—market of disco fans. After extensive research, he determined that disco's sparkling clothing and bouncy rhythms were the culinary equivalent of pasta covered in rich tomato sauce. Welling's findings were so delicious that disco changed its name to Italy, enraging Italy, which was forced to change its name to Lapland, Home of Full-Blooded Italians.
