We had dinner on a Saturday night with friends and had a great meal and very good service. The pre-dinner cocktails were on point (Italian Margarita & Manhattan) and the staple bread and olive oil for getting started. I had the Lasagna Bolognese - it is a large portion, just what I wanted - and the dish was great. Cindy had Shrimp Scampi over pasta and the shrimp were nicely over medium size and they were cooked perfectly. The sauce was good and the properly cooked pasta was the perfect compliment. The cannoli for dessert was good and it had a hint of cinnamon - not my taste, but good nonetheless. Our server was great - attentive and "figured out his audience" (all of us) and joked along with us over the course of the dinner. The place was not packed, we had made a reservation at 7pm which was a little surprising to me - Saturday night, dinner, good food, etc. and not packed? I say give it a go, it is worth it.

I dinned at Marconi grill Franconia on Mother’s Day, the food was really awesome and managers was absolutely fantastically visiting tables while it was really busy. I was sitting beside a family with dog which scared my kids so we asked the server to ask them to keep him away. The family was very rude to the manager and server, the mother was absolutely rude and kept using bad language to the point my kids were upset. We will definitely return to dine, hopefully this family will not be there. I loved the atmosphere and food there.

I came here for Mother’s Day with my mom, dad, and service dog (small) for a fun lunch during a long drive back north from Florida. I had the unfortunate luck of having Mohamed as a waiter, who was absolutely atrocious. He gave my mother a very snark tone and disrespectfully answered her questions multiple times, whenever we asked him for something, very politely I may add, he would quickly turn his head and walk away, before we were even finished with the other items we wanted to order , he assumed we were done talking , WHILE we were speaking. To top it all off , he had the audacity to ask me if my service animal IS indeed a service animal , while wearing his service vest, a half hour into our lunch , with food already on the table, he seemed very happy with the assumption my dog was not a service animal so he can boot us. Mohamed was by far the rudest and worst waiter I’ve ever experienced in my life, and I feel absolutely awful to the other people sitting around me who got some of his pushy/rushing/out of your face ordering style. If zero was an option I would give it. everyone else here was great, Mohamed disrespected my mother on Mother’s Day.

I placed an ordered through Door Dash. I ordered Chicken Marsala and the Brussels Sprouts. I tasted the Brussels and the chicken, it was luke warm BUT it was so good, I didn't take the time to heat it up. The Sprouts were fantastic, sweet and savory. The Chicken was tender and very flavorful. I will definitely order this again

Questions & Answers

What are the Covid safety practices like here?

They have taken great Covid prevention measures somewhat to the expense of customer turnaround and timeliness. From what I could they they are doing probably 50 percent maximum capacity for seating and their number of staff have been restricted as well in a effort to provide a safe workplace for their employees which somewhat can lead to increased wait time for food and various personalized dishes. It was to terrible of a difference in wait time for anyone who is primarily concerned about it.

Do you still have the cream soaked lemon cake.

Not sure but the last time we ate there it was a completely different experience from the old Macaroni Grill. It has chain has changed ownership atleast twice and is not very good anymore. If they still have the cake you like, I would get that and nothing else.
