    The cocktails and the appetizer (spicy tuna) were perfection. The Caesar salad was terrible, and slathered with the cheap taste of “marzetti’s dressing. The pizza was very sub- par due to the processed sausage. I wasn’t expecting Mozza, but I figured at least better than pizza hut! There was no hint of garlic in the flavor at all, and it was described on the menu. Overall, the pizza was one I would’ve given my toddler as a meal choice to satisfy them. 😩 I will never order or recommend those items again!

    This was the first time that we had dinner at CDM. Outstanding experience. We’re currently living in Utah, but will make a special effort to visit CDM on our next visit in December.
