The food in the restaurant is almost inedible. The fry's were undercooked and luke warm. The Spaghetti and Meatball tasted like the spaghetti caqme out of a nd with a can of chopped tomatoes and a very dry large meatball. The whole thing had been microwaved to death. They didn't make the bed even though I asked for service. Overall poor, only redeeming feature is it is clean.
