Best Restaurants for Birthdays in University Park

We love this place. My teens especially. We were there to celebrate my son's 14th Bday. We would be weekly visitors but this economy has killed that ability. $160 for a family of four per outing is outta my social security and professor income league. Even twice per month would be almost $4,000 per year.

The food was very good-better than I expected. We ordered the pizza with pepperoni and the chicken parmigiana with pasta. Both food items were very good, but the service wasn’t. The initial server took approximately 8 minutes to greet us and bring the water. We didn’t walk out of the restaurant because we were with my elderly mother and we didn’t want her to have to move to another restaurant. We ordered right away and the order came out within a reasonable amount of time. While we waited for our food the server did not come to refill our water glasses or check on us. Another server brought our food and was courteous and quickly brought us the extra plates that we requested. Once we were done eating the initial server came back and asked if we wanted a box for the remaining pizza slices. It took several minutes so I just grabbed a to go box that was on a shelf near the bar. The quality of the food was good so I will give him another chance but this time I’ll set the bar.

Bartender Kevin is amazing and very very knowledgeable. Excellent Dining experience with Evan our waiter. Suggested wonderful selections for appetizer and meal. I had the Mussels and Pork Belly, divine. We had a wonderful time after dinner listening to the Jazz ensemble.
