Pop's For Italian

Mick Sibinovic 2 months ago

Decorated nicely but a little too dim. The appetizers were on point! Bruschetta + arancini + shrimp + meatballs all strong. Pizza was good but the lobster ravioli was incredibly pungent and the meat didn’t seem cooked enough. Chicken parmesan was a hit! They forgot to make a dish for a client we brought out so the mistiming of his dinner impacted our experience but the main waitress was very kind and informative. Prices are that of fine dining but the food isn’t quite there.

Food was just meh. Service was fine but our server had food on his face. They probably need a mirror in the kitchen for staff to check themselves before they enter the dinning room. Husband and l went on a Sunday at 4, no wait. We got spicy shrimp appetizer, I ordered wild mushroom cream, husband ordered salmon special, and we split strawberry gelato for dessert. The app was the best. My wild mushroom cream sauce was broken before it even got to the table. Salmon was ok. Total 130$ way too much for food that was marginal.

We've been a few times, mostly for brunch, and it's a good solid option. It's huge inside, so you usually won't have a hard time getting a table, service is really good, drinks are great, and the menu has a ton of options to choose from, including specials. This time, hubby had the bloody Mary, which is served with a skewer of snacks and a slice of bacon. I had the espresso martini which was perfect. Not creamy, perfectly sweet and balanced; a great pick me up cocktail. We split the Italian wedge salad which was great, hubby had pizza, and I had one of the panini sandwiches - the California club. The pizza was pretty great - no complaints. Thin, crispy, chewy, flavorful. I'd definitely order that again. As for the panini, the bread was really good - appears to be freshly made - but the chicken itself was completely unseasoned and the sandwich lacked flavor overall. I also think there was like 1 slice of bacon on it. The truffle fries tasted good but weren't super hot. A very good portion though, and I devoured the whole thing, so it was still pretty good with some salt sprinkled on it. It won't stop us from coming again and trying more food. I was really tempted by the lemon ricot

Mixed experience overall. The chicken parmesan was the standout, really well done with a delicious fettuccine alongside it. Unfortunately, the chicken piccata was disappointingly bland. The chicken, potatoes, and beans all had the same one-note flavor, and I ended up adding a good amount of red pepper flakes just to liven it up. The garlic bread was also a letdown. It was essentially a hoagie roll with a sprinkle of Kraft parmesan and barely any garlic flavor, which is hard to justify at $10. The seating was another miss. Despite having a reservation, we were placed between the bar and the host stand where people wait to be seated. It felt cramped and offered zero privacy, not the kind of dining experience you’d expect when you’ve booked ahead. One good dish isn’t enough to bring me back at these prices.

I love this place, tonight was my second time visiting, I sat the bar instead of a table this time and my experience with Alyssa was great! We started with the salads, an artichoke/spinach dip, got the crispy fried mozzarella and two espresso martini. Our last courses were the Alfredo and Pasta Primavera which I paired with the sangiovese, a favorite of mine. My party explored dessert, the last time they enjoyed the creme brulee. I thank everyone for their service, and the host's grace, we had a great time together!
