I have been here a couple of times and both the times on a Wednesday.
They have a Pasta buffet going on every Wednesday which is pretty good. Considering the ambience and the price they charge, I find it attractive.
We opted for the all you can eat pasta and salad bar. It was nice to create your own pasta with red or white sauce, either penne or bowtie pasta, choice of meats, veggies, and a lot of other stuff. The chef at the cooking station will heat up everything together and plate it for you. I enjoyed the red sauce with Graziano sausage but it felt like a pasta that I could make at home. I had 2 plates for lunch and I was in a food coma afterwards, probably not the best place to go during a work day :)
Breakfast buffet was a bonus. Plentiful selection of fruits, cereals, pastries, breads, meats plus eggs cooked to order.
