What our visitors say
My husband and I just returned from enjoying this wonderful meal. Although we had enjoyed many restaurants around this one, we had never been before tonight. The opening salad was large and the fresh tomatoes added a freshness that was a perfect start. The main course was tender and the noodles were a perfect pairing. The dessert was the best compliment of sweet and tart in a puff pastry. We also enjoyed a Kitty Cosmo drink from the menu. Our server Nate was attentive during the busy rush of the evening dining and we will definitely be back.

Johnny's Italian Steakhouse - Altoona
We had this for dinner Wednesday evening & it was fabulous. The salad with tomatoes was amazing, the braised Iowa beef short rib served on tagliatellle noodles with fresh vegetables was fork tender & tasted so good. And the rhubarb galette was made with puff pastry & had more flavor than any dessert I have ever had & had just the right balance of sweet & tart (& I bake rhubarb desserts). This is one of the best meals I have ever had anywhere!
