This is my first review of any restaurant as i was looking forward to a good meal on my birthday and instead i had to settle for this. The food was not very good although there were a couple of things that were ok. The artichoke hearts fried in batter were somewhat tasty. The atmosphere is very casual and not really a good date place / romantic restaurant. They also had live music (that i was told when making the reservation) and it was ok though a little bit loud. The performer was very opinionated and proudly stated that she will move to Alaska if her man Barack did not win the election. It was completely uncalled for and is never justified when performing. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana which was not good. The eggplant was cooked fine but the fettuccine pasta was very undercooked and stuck together like a cake. Waitress did not even inquire why i left more than half of the food. We paid and left but we will not be going there again anytime soon.

Just had a wonderful Sunday evening diner at Calavinos with my family, including a two-year-old and grandparents. The food, service and atmosphere were spot-on: the pasta tasted freshly made that day, the spinach was cooked perfectly and the fish (tilipia) was flaky and nicely seared. Our server (Calavino, herself!) was especially gracious to my son -- letting him eat the restaurant's entire stock of Saltines. I was a little worried this spot wasn't good for kids, but they have a great deck, coloring books and kids' meal. This seems like the perfect spot for a nice Italian meal with family that isn't way too expensive.

Pros: Food, service, outdoor deck
