I always thought it was a NY thing - the Italian food around NY is usually pretty good. There are neighborhood restaurants in Staten Island that serve excellent Italian food - food that no chain restaurant I've been to comes close to matching. And if I'm in the mood for Italian, those places would be my first choice.
Steve,

I agree. We like Carrabbas alot, but we don't order the traditional Italian food. When we want Italian, I cook it at home. We had one bad experience at OG and never returned, the same for Red Lobster, (three bad experiences). We are however, willing to try these restaurants in TV once again.
