    Meals were just bad. Chicken parm was very hard like it was cooked and sat out then reheated. The pork chop was bland and very dry The whitefish was also very bland. Had to wait a long time for bread. Waiter seemed very rushed and was borderline rude. 2nd time dining here and I was very disappointed.

    I had the pleasure of enjoying lunch at Petterino’s with my husband, and it was a delightful experience. The servers were friendly and attentive, and the service was impressively quick. My husband ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, which was wonderfully creamy and rich without being too heavy. I opted for the braised ribeye Mavalde, which was perfectly seasoned, and the braised ribeye was incredibly tender—it practically melted in my mouth. One thing I appreciated about the menu was its simplicity; it wasn’t overwhelming, but it still offered a variety of appealing options. The portion sizes were generous and provided excellent value for the price. Overall, we both left feeling satisfied and impressed. Petterino’s strikes a great balance between quality food, good service, and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s definitely a spot we’d visit again.

    They sat us near the kitchen - awful traffic. We had to continue to wave down our server. It’s really tacky for restaurants to sneak in a service fee. Thumbs-down!!’
