The Tuscany Room

Don’t listen to the other reviews. Try this place. I’ve had dinner at The Tuscany Room three times and had three solid meals. Nothing was overcooked or swimming in oil as the other review suggets. Regarding the waitstaff, perhaps English isn’t their first language but it adds to the charm. They are certainly not on the older side. That’s a gross exaggeration. There is one elderly gentleman who buses tables and fills water glasses. Maybe on a busy night he brings out the food? I saw him in action and he didn’t seem moving slowly to me. Often times slower service has more to do with the chef or kitchen staff then the waitstaff anyway. I dine is the best NYC restaurants regularly so I’m no stranger to a good meal. I wouldn’t recommend this place unless it was up to par. In fact, the owners of The Tuscany Room had a restaurant in the city. Read the article hanging in the entry way. There are plenty of cookie-​cutter Italian places in the area but if you like a quiet and unpretentious place with good food then The Tuscany Room is for you. If you’re looking for a place where teenagers quickly serve you food that has been heated in a microwave then try Olive Garden or Macaroni Grill. That might be your speed.

Don’t bother with this local Wayne BYOB. The food was swimming in oil and overcooked, and the waitstaff appeared to have problems making it to the tables at all. The waitstaff did appear to be much older, and I am not dicriminating against the elderly, but they took 45 minutes to return after the order. Some of the other tables had the same problem. We asked twice for bread and when it eventually came after the long wait, it appeared to be day old (and somewhat stale). Not sure if the place is going out of business or is just mis-​managed, but not worth the effort.

Just okay… the food is okay and the service so so. Last time we were there the waiter spoke VERY little English, not conducive to a good dining experience. There’s so much competition in the area, I hope they survive. On the upside, it’s BYOB.
