I love Maggiano's for a celebratory meal, either after I've finished a hard test or going out on a nice date. The food is excellent and some what expensive, but there are well priced options as well. My boyfriend's favorite dish is the beef medallions which are to die for. If you want something a little lighter I'm really fond of their shrimp scampi. It's the best I've ever had.
The atmosphere is very relaxed and you have the option of sitting outside. If you're looking for a quick lunch you can phone in your order and they'll have a table ready for you and your meal prepared so you're done within an hour. They also have a handy to-go portion of the restaurant.
