Mom Dad's Italian - Tallahassee

Alfredo, do not even think that it looked with heavy, probably half and half and flour, or if any heavy saw, is made so latent with maize starch. linguine mosquitoes- fresh water mosquitoes not middle neck, not fresh, frozen, and if they even use fresh mussel juice, it must be of days old, they are likely to use a seafood base u buy. it is a façade- beautiful looking place, terrible apologies for italians, then were around so many years, I am sure they just make it right - It's too bad.

Overall, the food at Mom Dad's was very good. My date had shrimp over fettuccini alfredo and I had veal marsala. We had water and italian margaritas to drink and they were very good. This is a very good option for italian food in Tallahassee.

We normally love Mom Dads. It is one of are go to places. BUT tonight was a big disappointment. The lobster ravioli was dry and chewy. I the the spaghetti a la buzzi and it was dry and disappointing. We spent $88 dollars and left unsatisfied. I hope next time is an improvement. Very Sad!

Super slow food delivery. It was good once it got there. Seated close to live music big loud party, so very loud.

Was in town for a football game — first in a long time — and decided to try to make the most out of a dreaded noon kickoff by ending the day with a good meal. So I dialed up open table and decided to see if Mim Dad’s was still even around! I was very happy to see it was, and had availability … so I clicked on the reservation button and then clicked navigation … that’s when it got interesting. My Tallahassee experience was outdated, but I quickly realized I wasn’t headed to where I remembered Mom Dad’s to be (in fact, I was pretty sure I was headed in exactly the wrong direction … but I pressed on. Now, my father was in Tally when M D opened in the early 60s and went with his parents … he took my mom there on occasion when they were students in the late 60s … my family likely didn’t eat there in the 70s … my first trip to my parents’ alma mater in the 80s included a stop … went to M Ds when my parents or my gf’s parents were visiting when I was a student in the 90s … my last visit was likely early 2000s as an alum … Okay, back to the current trip … we arrived just before the restaurant opened, and I quickly assessed that the new M D was more upscale … I sulked in and asked the staff if my family of 4 in our garnet and garish game gear would be completely inappropriate, and they assured me we were not likely to be alone in our dress. In short (eh, I guess I’m well past short! we had a fantastic meal .. I had veal parm and the wife had a lasagne … I forget what the kids got, but they were quiet while the wife and I had a proper meal and a couple drinks, so it was a huge win! The red sauce was as great as I remembered: hearty, tasteful and just a touch of a freshness (herbs? that I can’t put my finger on, but can’t get enough of. They say smells and tastes trigger the most vivid memories … and despite the little place on Parkway being a distant memory, this meal made my delayed return visit to Tally complete. Thanks Mom Dads …
