Good food and good service. We were grateful to find a restaurant open on Christmas Day. Christmas Day was Wednesday and their Wednesday specials were $9.99 drinks and $12.99 pasta. I had the baked ziti off the $12.99 pasta menu. My husband had chicken Vesuvio. The food had really good flavor. We were also offered a salad with our meal for an extra dollar. The quality of salad was very good. I had the balsamic vinaigrette dressing. I ate every drop of the salad. As an appetizer, we had calamari. Again very good we will definitely come back.

It was great. Good is really good. The staff is top notch. From busmen to the servers to the manager who never stopped moving and delivering meals to diners. Our server, Tori was the best. Fun, engaging and attentive. We will be back.

Have been going to D&B’s for 20 years. Sadly the food quality has declined tremendously in my opinion. Used to love their Parmesan crusted chicken, this time it resembled old airline food or a frozen meal in my opinion. The burgers seemed good, so I’ll stick to burgers and chicken fingers I suppose because we do love the convenience of food + games in one location.
