I was excited to with my family and try Maggiano's because I heard the food was good. The service was pathetic to say the least, no please or thank yous and the server rarely came around. I ordered the fettachini with white clam sauce. Although I thought the sauce was supposed to be creamy, I won't place blame on that,... more

I LOVE their spaghetti and meatballs! There's something in the way they make their sauce that clicks in my mind and makes my eyeballs pop with joy. For dessert, Nanna's Pound Cake is simply wonderful without being too decadent. Other choices that are good are the Spinach Salad, Eggplant Parmesian, and the Veal & Mushroom Ravioli al Forno.

From scratch-made food to genuine Italian-American hospitality, you'll find Maggiano's Little Italy unlike any other chain. Family style portions heavy on meat and noodles cooked "al dente" completes the experience of an Italian-American tradition. Favorites include the Chopped Salad, Veal & Mushroom Ravioli al Forno, and the Spaghetti with Meatballs in Meat Sauce. $$ more
