I was part of a much larger party gathering after a funeral. We arrived at approximately noon and the dining room was completely ours, so there weren't any other patrons there.I had a chicken dish with a red sauce and ziti. The sauce was bland and the chicken scarce and flimsy. I covered the entire dish with parmesan cheese, which made it edible. Another guest had haddock and had to blanket it with pepper to get any kind of flavor. On the other hand, the shrimp scampi has TOO much garlic! At least most had a meal; one member of our group who has to leave early didn't get served a meal because the staff overlooked her.Overall, many of the guests complained rather than praised the food, which was disappointing. I remember Pasquale's being a place to enjoy a good Italian meal. This could have been a fluke, but today's offerings were disappointing.

Wife and I had dinner. The pasta with red clam sauce had little taste in the sauce. Salad dressing for her was Ceasars and had little Ceasars taste. Mine was lasagna. Taste was OK but not what I expected from an Italian restaurant. Sort of bland. Service was good. But for the price we doubt we'll be back.

Was here last Saturday for a post graduation dinner. As soon as we pulled up outside I knew this was not going to be a good experience. Upon walking in the vestibule there was some funky stench that punched you in the nose. The restaurant itself was very warm, and our feet were sticking to the floor. Not sure what they use to mop the floors, but it’s not working. The on line menu and what you are handed when you sit down are different. Menu was very limited. Service was OK, not great. Food was low end mediocre at best. With basically every chain restaurant under the Sun within a 10 minute drive, not sure why anyone would choose this place. One positive: the frosted beer glasses were a nice touch.

It's been so long since we last visited. Friendly wait staff, great atmosphere and amazing food!

Great italian spot with daily features.. there is something for everyone's budget! Perfect for takeout, a drink and an appetizer at their cozy bar, date night, or group activities in the private room! The bread and oil served with each meal is delicious! I highly recommend trying the potato soup, or alfredo with crabmeat! Super friendly host and wait staff!

Baked Ziti, Horrible, noodles were dried out, stuck to ceramic dish, hardly enough pasta sauce differently not enough for a portion. It was not too busy which was strange to me.

Fantastic family owned place. My first time coming and I will definitely be back. Great food and service.

Absolutely the best restaurant in the area. great prices, great environment, great people. food is AMAZING. I will be back very soon

Big dishes full of pasta, fresh fish. Watch out for the bread, it will fill you up! The salads are cold & fresh!

My sister and mom have been here three times and every time the food has been good and filling. So much that we end up taking it home.
