Pizza was cold, ribs are a hard no, coleslaw the worst, wedding soup sad. Kids running the place. One and done disappointing.

Updated review:
My first experience was a good one.
The second one was awful enough that i did not return for over a year.
tonight I gave it a third try and it looks like Gino has legit tried to fix some of the issues he had when he first opened.
When we came in we were asked how many and NOT AUTOMATICALLY OFFERED THE BAR. That was a good course correction from what was happening before.
The food was good. Salad was a bit odd. Like giant leaves of lettuce from the head.. Usually it is ripped a part a little....
The table service was average. It was just an odd vibe. Usually the servers ask the table if its one check or mutiple. They didn't. I had to mention. I felt like our server was more of a server you might find in a 1950s diner in new york city. I was expecting her to be chewing gum also. Not sure where that came from. I think Gino still needs to work on the service itself. Also I gather the older gentlemen walking back and forth through the restaurant with the Fedora was Gino's father or relative. He was standing there just gazing into the dining room at times. I know he was just kind of looking to make sure everything was okay but it was a weird feeling. Again I know It is a work in progress. I am now totally behind Gino because strongsville is in desperate need of a local, non-chain, non-glassman restaurant group owned Italian place. i want him to succeed desperately.
Just a few minor tweaks to really make this place shine.
finally my friend was not sure about the tv's at the tables. I am fine with them. Just one suggestion. Clean them please. There was all kinds of grim and oils from peoples fingers all over them. Have the hosts, or busser's or servers or anyone just take glass cleaner to them.
Gino I apologize for my previous review. I really hope you do well.
