    Spaghetti with Homemade Meat Sauce
    Amelia B.

    By far the best part of Gondolier is their dessert selection, as anyone who has ever been knows. The cakes (made by a bakery down the road a bit) are towering masterpieces of yumminess, and it's worth $7.99 a slice. 5 stars for the desserts, although my last takeout order was wrong, giving me baklava cheesecake (the only "meh" dessert I've ever had there) instead of the decadent brownie cheesecake I had requested. The salads are always fresh, and the Italian dishes (Americanized Italian...nothing authentic here) are comfort food, filling and typically laden with cheese but not overly inventive or likely to knock your tastebuds out. A step above Fazoli's, maybe? The prices aren't ridiculous, but the food quality is certainly not on par with the prices. $9.99 for basic spaghetti, and close to $20 for a square of lasagna and a side salad. You can't order online from this location, but they are quick and friendly if you come in and order to go. The dining room is spacious enough and clean, although the decor is dated. All in all, it's a 3 for the location and the menu, but Gondolier is a solid place to have dinner with the kids or old friends, and don't dare to skip the dessert. Actually, I would say order the desserts to go and make your own spaghetti at home.

    Baked Lasagna

    You can't beat the lasagna at Gondolier. I don't know about any other entrees. I'm certain they are good as well but I can't say because I always order lasagna. About the lasagna: ooey gooey cheesy deliciousness. On point every time. What an amazing comfort food. It takes me back home to memories of my Italian mother serving it every Saturday night. Oh, wait, my mother's not Italian but if she were I would be able to tell this story. Hahaha The Caesar Salad was delicious. The salad was crisp and Icy cold, the dressing was done right and the grated Parmesan cheese and croutons finished it off. Served in an ice cold bowl, this in itself with a glass of Chard would be superb on a steamy hot afternoon. Our server, Melissa was attentive to our needs. She was everything a server should be. Thank you Melissa!!

    Easy Greek Pizza
    Susan C.

    While this Gondolier has some of the best lasagna around, the pizza (the Greek pizza at least) doesn't measure up. The price is right (about $16 for a large pie), yet the toppings of Kalamata olives, gyro meat and feta cheese are sparse. Apparently this pizza also comes with onions, however, they must have melted into the sauce. When we first arrived, our friendly server asked what we wanted to drink. My spouse replied, "a glass of red wine." Well, this ITALIAN restaurant, alcohol-wise, only serves beer. Then he said, "rootbeer." Nope, just Pepsi products sans rootbeer. Next he inquired, "Then, soda water from the fountain dispenser?" Three strikes -- no soda water, so he settled on plain water that came with a wee slice of lemon. Overall, the food is pretty darn good and the prices seem reasonable. Desserts in the display case look decadent and delicious and worth the oodles of calories if you can afford weight-wise to indulge.

    White Venetian Pizza
    Kevin C.

    Got the sampler platter. Well, they did not inform me that they was out of jalapeño poppers. Instead, they sent out 5 burnt onion rings. The marinara sauce for the bread sticks tasted like water down sweetened tomato juice. Breadsticks was hard. The Venetian pizza was horrible. The chicken was dried out and had no flavor. The artichokes was so dry and hard. The sundried tomatoes was rubbery. The meatball sub.... Well, it had no flavor what's so ever. Dessert was ordered. The baklava had no flavor. Very sad. Tried a cannoli. It had flavor, but the shell was very soft. No crunch at all. Very sad and disappointed with them. Will not be back at all, even if it was a free meal.

    Not worth $12! Frozen and chewy...
    Colby M.

    I'm not sure what is going on with this place because the first time we loved. Not this time. We had some kid service us we he never cleared are dishes even though the place was empty and there was no reason for it. The food started out good with the breadsticks and the sauce that came with it that was delicious. Then we got calamari that turned out to be Frozen and chewy half of a plate even though it costed us $12 not worth it. Did my husband got a calzone with no flavor and I got the eggplant with water down tomato sauce and chewy spaghetti the eggplant tasted old like it was refried or something no flavor. When my husband told the kid that my food was terrible the manager couldn't even bother to come over to my table even though we were table number three in the whole restaurant. When I went to go pay they asked me how long it was still I told them it was just okay no one came to talk to me. With the way food prices being so high it's a luxury to go out to eat so I am disappointed that we wasted our money on this place. I completely understand now why there is no customers.

    After being told this new little restaurant spot opened in mid-February, I was surprised to find no…read morereviews. Located in an established strip mall by a high-traffic intersection at Kingston Pike and S. Peter's, Greens and Grains is easy to get in and out of with plenty of parking. The interior is spotlessly clean (including the restrooms!) and comprised of two connected dining areas and kitchens. One has a trendy, airy feel with cool green and white tones, while the other is darker with metal and wood elements, a game area, and a large open grill/prep area. The reason for the two different vibes was not immediately clear to me. Actually, it never became more clear during the hour or so I spent there, but I can appreciate a good mystery. This is NOT a fast food joint. In fact, it is slow. Agonizingly slow if you're in a hurry. This is a place to come when you are with a group of people you find highly entertaining (or when you heft along a great book) and don't mind waiting. After ordering two sandwiches and sides, my friend and I waited almost 20 minutes for our food to appear at our table. The macaroni salad was pleasantly flavorful, without the overcooked noodles and runny sauce so often found with this deli counter staple. The turkey and Brie was also good and grilled to buttery-crisp perfection. The sandwich, side, and a drink cost just under $20, so it's neither bargain-priced nor exotic, but fresh ingredients are not cheap. Only one employee was working in each of the two halves of the restaurant, so I imagine if they want to speed up their service, they are going to need to schedule more people. The two employees were both delightfully friendly, though, and they aren't just paying lip service to customer service, a goal plainly outlined on all the napkin dispensers and evidenced by their actions. Despite the slow service, I'm giving them a 5 for their dedication to quality ingredients and excellent customer service. I hope they make it for the long haul, and I'll definitely be back soon.

    My husband and I had lunch at Greens & Grains and were blown away by their delicious sandwiches…read more Initially, the price appeared a bit expensive; however, you get what you pay for - the portions were large, they use high-quality ingredients, and the side portion was generous. Plus, the purchase price of their chips goes to charity - it was fun picking our charity of choice. Service was excellent! The staff was enthusiastic and I must add "adorable". I'm returning next week.

Just right. The Tangerine Aleppo drink was refreshing with a tiny peppery kick. It was busy for dinner on Friday and it seems people were waiting a bit for their to-go orders but they did a good job of keeping the line inside moving. We were making 3 different bowls and there was a misunderstanding on the main. They added steak to the wrong bowl and remade it for me which is very much appreciated. A good number of tables inside that could work for small or bigger groups. There was also a small patio with outside seating,
