Verdile's Restaurant

"My friend and I went here for dinner last night. If was a Friday and we arrived a little after 6pm. We didn't have to wait for a table. We ordered the fried oysters for an appetizer. They were served with cocktail, tarter and wedged lemon. The coating was a batter dip, not bread crumbs which I was very happy about. They were cooked perfectly and fell apart with a fork. They were fantastic! My friend ordered a pasta dish w linguini, shrimp and spinach in a garlic wine sauce, and I the Lobster Ravioli. I got 7 raviolis in a very tasty tomato cream sauce. My friends linquini was overcooked and mushy, and without very many small shrimp. I would've been more pleased with a few more raviolis, Maybe make the dish an even 12 pieces, instead of 7. It may sound petty, but little things make all the difference in my opinion. We ordered the carrot cake for dessert on the recommendation of our waiter. It was a huge piece, suitabe for up to 4 people, however it was dry and overcooked. Our waiter was excellent, incorporating alot of knowledge about the food selection and bit of humor into our dining experience which made it pleasant. When all is said and done, it will be a while before I return."

"The service was very good. I enjoyed the "old Italian restaurant" feel, but the food was not worth the price. The Chicken Marsala was ok, but the veggie side dishes seemed to have been just scooped out of a can and microwaved. 1 bite of each was more than enough. We also tried Ravioli with an order of meatballs. The meatballs were large, but lacked flavor. The salad was fresh, but a small side salad was requested and we were told that they don't do that, so it ended up being quite expensive, since only 1 of us was having salad. We didn't think to ask for 2 plates to share it."

"This is an old school Italian restaurant. The service was impeccable. We had the fried calamari appetizer and it was delicious. I had the chicken parm, which was just so so- they didn't tenderize the breast prior to breading and frying. Frying. Breading didn't stick properly to the breast. My wife had the veal and it was pretty darn good."

"Our 2 meals were absolutely amazing. We had the lasagna and the chicken scarpariello. We also had the chocolate lava cake. We will definitely go back there again when we travel down that way. 5 star all the way!!!"

"Waitress was very pleasant. Food was ok. I've always heard great things about the place so maybe I had too high of expectations. But that carrot cake! Omg! Huge is an understatement!!"
