Mrs. Robino's Restaurant

Always busy but the staff is friendly and the food is excellent. Spaghetti and meatball (I chose one, not two) was well cooked and sauced. Lottie Special had a lot of scallops, shrimp and crabmeat. The portions were too large for one meal!

They serve large portions. That's it! It gives diner vibe not Italian restaurant. My water was served in a dirty plastic cut, if you look in the picture you can see it, when i realized it i stopped drinking. The complimenty bread was served cold not toasted along side the little butter packs. The calamari fresco wasn't crispy or seasoned and tuff to chew. It's a Spanish spot up thr street that has better and theirs is probably frozen. I got the crab cake that was 40 bucks. It's just a big ball of crab meat again no seasoning. It came with a side of spaghetti and I got a meatball. That spaghetti sauce or gravy (whatever you chose to call it) is terrible. It's a very deep red and super thick, again no flavor. The house made noodles are thick like lo mein noodles, heavy and poorly made.. the meatball was mushy, took one bite and was done. Also ordered was the garlic butter and crab dish with allegedly white wine, yet another flavorless dish, the noodles sucked up the olive oil. Putting salt on the dish made no difference. The bruschetta was swimming in a pool of olive oil and cheese ... again flavorless. The sangria was good, the mule was sweet... overall if your looking for a robust, herby, flavorful italian experience.. this is not the place. Ps, if the restaurant is to respond and say they take pride in the food.. well that pride is too high and if you come down a bit you'll lower your bar.

We started with the Lottie's Special, which was very creamy and packed with shrimp, scallops, and crab! They named this dish after an employee that has worked there for over 20 years! Each of the wines we tried were from different regions of Italy and the KRIS Delle Venezie is actually from the town that the Romeo and Juliet story is based in! I really enjoyed the 1903 Howland pizza! The pizza includes long hots, sausage, olive oil, garlic, and ricotta! Everything was delicious!
