Not Old Spaghetti Factory...I ate there once and I hated it! Sorrentinos sounds good.

Never been to Sorrentinos so that will possibly work for me. I am Diabetic so am supposed to watch what I eat. Sometimes I do most times I don't. So don't make any special changes of plans for me.....I will do what most of you do.

I second the Not old spaghetti factory vote. The pasta is just not that good and sometimes it's downright crappy.
Sorrentinos is nice.

Sorrentino's won't be cheap- 35++ and it will be a set meal. 2-3 appetizers, a choice of pasta entree and a dessert. I called and checked- they said that to accomodate a group of 30 people on a Saturday is difficult. And for a group this big, it will be 15 % gratuities, probably.

Well I guess if the meal is a little more expensive I can deal with that.

Me too And Greek is generally pretty simple enough that everyone should enjoy it. I LOVE Koutouki Taverna South (from "The Family Restaraunt)...however its very pricey. Know of any Greek places that are around 30 per person?

I'm worried....

I don't drive and I think I will be poor that week...
so I may just have to brown bag it!

Sorrentinos would be my vote though...great food everytime I've been there and "worth it " ykwim...
although greek is good too...lamb is yummy!

It doesn't really matter to me except I don't like spicey. (food that is)
I went to a Greek restaurant once and there wasn't one thing on the menu I liked.
What about a buffet somewhere. Eat as much or not as you want.
Just my 2 cents.

Hey, Pasta, Salad, Greek, Chinese, I love seafood too, but then there is not much I don't like. It's only one supper--we'll be fine. I'll bet they all have some really good chocolatey desserts :mrgreen:

What about Red Robin's if all else fails? Just throwing out ideas here. Earls Tin Palace (not even sure it is still called that)?

Regina - if it does end up being a Greek restaurant, I will help ya order! There is some dishes that are quite tasty even for the picky eater that I am! Do ya like eggplant? Mousaka is nice!

Peggy - Are ya looking to keep near downtown or GMCC? If I can help ya out Peggy just let me know!
