We checked Talk of TV before making reservations at Luigino's tonight. Most of the posts were too old to be relevant, so we decided to go. The food was very good. The serivce could be better. One statement I will stand by on the food is this, if you think Olive Garden serves good Italian food, Luigino's is not for you you. They cater much more more to the northeast palate. I have spoken to the owner of Red Sauce and he admitted he caters more to the midwest and southern customers. His business decision can't be questioned because of his success. However, being from NJ and having one good Italian restaraunt after another to pick from, I will tell you that Luigino's appeals to me much more than Red Sauce. Of course, I wouldn't even consider Olive Garden for Italian food, but my neighbors from Michigan think it's great. Just a matter of what you have gotten used to. Of course, my grandmother made the best macaroni and gravy. That's right, it was not pasta and sauce, but macaroni and gravy to us Italians from the northeast.
Buona salute,
Cheech
