★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 tracy legg · Nov 2025

Well, the waitress was nice. She did not do a very good job of satisfying a dissatisfied customer. My friend and I went there both got the French dip sandwich. I am 100% sure that it was microwaved. Parts of the meat were so black and dried out other parts were gray other parts were pink a sure sign of being microwaved. The onions were totally raw underneath the cheese and my order of french fries were stone cold. When I told the waitress about it, she did offer to replace our food, but at that point, I did not want anything else . very very disappointed. It’s been my experience working in the industry field for well over 20 years that if you have a customer complaint the manager should address the issue. This did not happen. We still tipped the waitress because it wasn’t her faul

We used to love this place. Since owner change the menu has been completely changed. Not too much of the original menu is left. Food was ok at best. Place was very dark and the acoustics were very loud. All attention seemed to be centered around the bar. Probably won't be going back anymore.

We had the family Thanksgiving dinner here; party of 10. We arrived at 3. Had choice of Turkey dinner or their famous Prime Rib. It was busy, but had plenty of open tables. Waitress quickly took our drink orders. She was fantastic throughout her very stressful evening. 40 min later she took our orders. 20 min after that we were told no more Prime; really? It was only 4 PM. So many of us had to look at menus again. My step son ordered med wings and antipasto salad. After another long wait, his wings had hot sauce. He sent it back and they put the wrong sauce on it again. Antipasto salad dressing was basically all oil after waiting over an hour for it. My step daughter's salad had wrong dressing as well. My grandson never got his salad. We we also told no bread; wow. Kinda early to run out

★★★★★ 5.0 Haley Aguglia · Aug 2025

Wow sooooo good!! Stopped into Donoli’s because I kept seeing them post these beautiful scallops on their Facebook page and let me tell you they are exceptional! Their chef nailed a perfect sear and beautiful cook on these. I can’t wait to come back and try more menu items. They have a huge bar with lots of seating and all choices for liquor you could imagine. The lighting is wonderful and food was delicious. I will be back soon.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Sara Catrow · Dec 2025

Everything tasted good, but it's definitely not what it used to be. The portion sizes if you're not having the prime rib are way too small for what you're paying and I'd be totally fine with that, but fresh pasta prices shouldn't be applied to a small boxed pasta entree, a common mistake at most restaurants that offer Italian food. I'm also not sure if it was a one off experience or if you have to physically ask for parmesan for your meal, but it was never offered or brought to the table. We wouldn't necessarily say no to coming back, but I think next time we will try something different until the new owners find their groove.
