With food this good you're bound to have returning customers. Pollo Inamorato was outstanding. Garlic mash potatoes and mixed vegetables (could have used more) were just as good as the chicken. I'll be back.

We eat here all the time now. It’s very affordable for a quick meal and I love their small plates, especially the lamb chops and shrimp. It was absolutely amazing. The service is very nice and friendly.

I had the baby lamb chops with veggies. It was amazing. The Caesar salad and bread they serve were delicious. We have been here a number of times. Recommend!

Came here for dinner and were pleasantly surprised. Good service. Ordered meatballs, garlic bread, sausage apps. Entrees chicken parm and chicken fettuccine Alfredo. My husband said it was the best Alfredo sauce he’s had! Bread wasn’t the best but everything else was delicious. We will definitely be back!

Our waitress was assigned to the other side of the restaurant , so we had no service. I order lamb chops medium rare and it was mostly well done. The Greek salad was excellent as was the garlic bread. But when we were ready to check out we had to flag someone down because we had no waitress. I left 15% Tip because waitresses go unappreciated. We would have appreciated one if we had one.
