    Keith, our server, was AMAZING. While Vicari's is mostly good, this year for our annual Christmas party was GREAT. Keith our Server, was completely ON IT. Fabulous service, paid attention to our needs on our large party. Chef was also on it for all of our food. You guys get 5 Stars!

    Calamari

    The building is amazing. The wait staff was great. We had a slight problem with our poke bowl order. Note to self don't order a poke bowl in an Italian restaurant. The calamari was wonderful. The spaghetti and lasagna lunch portions were huge.

    Creamed spinach tortellini with blackened chicken
    Drew M.

    The best thing about this place was the service. Our waiter was very good. He was incredibly helpful. We were very excited about trying this place, and the yelp reviews had us more excited. But I have to say- the majority of our party was disappointed. The food was very inconsistent. Some dishes were delicious. Some were not great. Start with the great: -creamed spinach tortellini with blackened chicken was excellent. Great ratio of pasta to sauce and the chicken was perfectly blackened. -pork tenderloin: this was seasoned well and the pear sauce was very good. -blackened chicken Alfredo Not so great: -prime rib. The presentation was boring and lack luster. The taste wasn't much better. Good thing it was served with potatoes because those were good. -ribeye steak: the LOOK of the steak was GREAT! Perfect grill pattern on the steak, but the taste was just.. adequate. For a $45 dry aged ribeye, it wasn't anything special. Again- potatoes were great! The tomato with crusted Parmesan was good, but ... not difficult to make that taste good. -shrimp jalapeño poppers: possibly the most disappointing dish. When I saw this on the menu, I thought "man! Absolutely!!!" It's right up our alley! BUT I wish I would've just gotten a salad like the rest of the table. This dish is a plate of a roughly 8 shrimp; each wrapped in bacon with a slice of jalapeño wrapped with it. But the jalapeño was absolutely pointless. It was so tiny and you couldn't taste it at all. All I tasted was the grill burnt areas of the bacon. Couldn't taste shrimp. Couldn't taste jalapeño. Overall- this place is fine. But in my opinion, if I'm going to pay that price, I expect more. More ambiance. More taste. More consistency. More food presentation. And.. more jalapeño.

    Lobster Ravioli! Yum!

    Rustic rival decor! Made a reservation a couple weeks back to ensure a table , easy, breezy, friendly! 5 Star on the food,. Tantalize your tastebuds dry aged ribeye $34 got 2, lobster ravioli $26 and grilled mahi-mahi $24. All garnished with a veggie and Parma tomato and yummy creamy roasted potatoes ! Very good ! Had a special request for a lemon sauce on the fish and they made me a custom creamy lemon sauce to die for! Every body at table was dipping into it. delizioso! buon appetito! 5 star -Service Nick was outstanding server, amazing, attentive, table clear immediately, Bravo on customer service and giving us an amazing dinning experience!!! Hostess 1 star! Pictured The only con was the hostess was rude and not wearing her PE, made me almost walk out and not feeling safe. Everyone other employees in place was following the rules. Arrived 10 min early to restaurant @ 6:15 pm only 5 tables full, 5 empty tables along wall available. During Covid ask Not to sit in middle of room to limit exposure. Guess where she put us? Asked to sit at wall and she discredited our reservation, like we didn't matter. Those table didn't get sat till 30 or 45 minutes later. Bright side seating in center of room was getting Nick! Bravo Nick you made our night! Thank you

    The Italian food is adequate, but nothing spectacular. The steaks, on the other hand, are out of this world good. Pricey but worth it.

    The Jake Break Cafe - No sign with the name of the place, but it is the Hwy 45 Truck Stop

    A truck stop diner on a very busy highway. There isn't a sign stating 'The Jake Break Cafe', but it…read moreis at the Hwy 45 Truck Stop. It has an extensive menu and some of the items sound like they would taste delicious. The chuck wagon steak, sounds great, but tastes pretty rough. It comes with too much gravy, and it is a patty that contains a bunch of fillers, resulting in a "soggy" patty, with strange flavors. The hand cut fries are red skin potatoes, which are an oddity in this area. They aren't douple dipped or cooked long enough, and as a result, come to you limp and the insides are crunchy. The pot roast has a good taste, reminiscent of Kelly, Hormel or Dinty Moore brand can stew. The meat appearance and gravy taste make you wonder, if it is from an industrial-size pre-made dish. The food items we chose were edible, but not worth the drive to make another visit. The only food item that was questionable would be the baked beans. They were prepared with an overpowering maple ingredient, and tasted like a pancake syrup. There were bits of real bacon and ground meat, but you couldn't discern that taste from the maple. I ate them, but it was off putting, and I added pot roast meat to dilute it some. There is no ban on smoking here, and you will have to deal with that smell while dining. There is a table to play dominoes. They have karaoke certain nights. There is an on-site deli that sells a half dozen different sandwich meats. They also offer a long list of desserts. The one menu item I do plan to try, is the cornbread salad, to compare to that of Borroum's. The food quality may not have been what we prefer, but if they post an interesting special, I may return to try it. I do look forward to trying the cornbread salad within a couple weeks. I'm not sure about the name, if it is a play on words, or an honest misspelling (Jake Brakes on semi trucks). To Each Their Own.
