“Skip the Garlic Onion”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2013

Maybe it's just the name, but this hotel restaurant kind of fits its moniker. Our meal was mediocre, the service poor, and we felt like no one really cared that we were there. My dinner, although nicely plated, arrived cold, my hot tea was never reheated, and no one came to ask us how our meal was. Skip the Onion,... More

I am very disappointed to hear that you felt as if no one cared that you so kindly decided to join us for dinner. I can assure you this is not how we train our staff and this issue will be attended to immediately. You, our guest, are the purpose of our work! With out you, we would be nothing... More

“Decent restaurant within Holiday Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2013

Convenient - the restaurant is inside the Holiday Inn hotel. Food quality - no complaints for either the food choices or pricing.

“Cold dry food for buffet”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2013 via mobile

We were 2 out of 6 total customers and were treated like it was enormously busy. We had to go find our own cream for the coffee. I wanted a receipt for my cash payment for the buffet and it was not well responded to. How hard is it to get a receipt? The food was cold and dry -... More

I would like to apologize immensely for the poor service and poor quality of food you experienced in our restaurant. I appreciate your candid comments. Myself and the rest of the management team are taking immediate action to resolve these issues. We are about to embark on a remodel of the restaurant and with that a revamping of our training...

“Bypass this Restaurant”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2012

The Stuffed Mushroom anti-pasta was very good but that was the only thing. The salad, bread (cheap balsamic vinegar & olive oil) were nothing special and the Lasagna was terrible. The upholstery on the chairs and booths is ripped with the stuffing sticking out, needs a good remodel and soon. The service was very good. Will try another Italian Restaurant... More

We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our appetizers and friendly service. I am very disappointed that the lasagna was not up to par. The kitchen has been made aware of the poor review it received and are doing everything in their power to avoid future problems. Also, we just went through an amazing remodel of the hotel but...

“Best Ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 May 2012

We were traveling home, stayed at the Holiday Inn in Wilsonville. We were too tired to drive anymore so we went to this Ristorante with hopes of a good meal. WOW!!! Mildred, the gal who seated us was tops. So friendly we began to be very hopeful of that "Good Meal". Drinks arrived and we chatted more with Mildred before... More

“Better than expexted”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 March 2012 via mobile

I was very hesitant after reading the reviews. I had already purchased my restauramts.com coupon, so we were committed for better or worse. Well it was definately better! Great fresh stuffed mushrooms, the steak was perfect and the homemade pasta and sauce was very pleasant! We would go back.
