"The Eggplant Parmigiana dinner came with a side of spaghetti. I asked for my sauce on the side and it came in a generous, sized container. The eggplant was topped with sauce and melted mozzarella; it was tender and delicious. Molinara's sauce was savory, not sweet, and not acidic at all. The side salad had fresh, crisp lettuce with ripe, delicious tomatoes, red onion, mozzarella cheese and pepper rings. The large portions allowed for another serving of everything. Molinara's is one of my favorite restaurants to order from. I've never had a bad meal or problems with an order. I highly recommend them and I will certainly order the Eggplant Parmigiana again! "
"Holy cow, best $15 I've spent on Doordash in years. Spaghetti with Sauce with Meatballs was delicious and enough for two meals. The SALAD I got with my dinner exceeded my expectations to the point I had to leave this review. Huge fresh clean salad, lots of greens onion and fresh grated cheese, just delicious. Nice job guys!"

"Ordered the Chicken Parmesan Dinner and Fried Ravioli ( 8 per order ). Everything was delicious and they listened to my special request to substitute Alfredo, which was much appreciated! The ravioli was gone in minutes, amazing. Side salad was a little underwhelming but everything was there and seemed fresh. The garlic bread was huge with the dinner as well. 10/10 would order again."

"This place used to be amazing. I am not sure if they swapped ownership or something but as of late they are really poor quality. The subs are lacking on meat and the flavor isn't there anymore. The cookies are subpar quality as well and PLEASE do NOT get the garlic bread. Most disappointing garlic bread I've ever had. How do you even do that?"

It was good but the portion for the price was not. the Build Your Own Pizza was ok, definitely smaller slices and an off taste a bit. wouldn't really order again 😕"
