The food had no flavor.  It's a very generic Americanized version of Italian food.  It tastes very similar to the Macaroni Grill.  The bread had to be soaked in olive oil to taste good otherwise it tasted a little stale.  The tomato sauce tastes similar to a bottled sauce you can get at any grocery store. There was nothing authentic or homemade tasting about the sauce. The portions were generous and the prices were nice.This is a not an authentic NY style or Sicialian style restaurant with flavor. When we dined there at 6 PM on a weekday, the restaurant was empty. There were two old Italian people at a cash register at the front who didn't even make eye contact and were busy crunching numbers.  This restaurant has no passion or anything unique about it.   You can tell this restaurant is for the Olive Garden crowd who feels they are branching out and getting a unique Italian experience by eating here.  This restaurant reminded me of Italian restaurants in the southern United States or \"Eye-talian\" restaurants as I call them.  Think bland, lots of cheese, big portions, cheap prices, stereotypical dishes aka Carrabas
