Hey Mambo! Mambo Italiano! Talk about your pizzeria. I recently was out at the movies with some friends and one of them decided we should go here afterwards considering we were all hungry at that point. You walk in and it's a quaint little place with lovely decor. You sit down and you're asked what you want to drink. You can either order your entrees or pizza then or take some time to think it over. It's quite a laid back environment for a group of friends or perhaps even a date for that lucky lady. After you order you are served fresh garlic rolls to tide you over while you wait on them to cook your order. Now let me tell you something, these rolls are fantastic. I'm sure you've figured this out but in the chance you haven't let me say it, I love to eat. I judge complimentary appetizers by how many I eat. I actually have to remind myself that I have a pizza coming so I don't fill up. Then comes the pizza, fresh out of the oven. It's absolutely marvelous. Being a male and growing up in the era I have, I've eaten my share of pizza in my life thus far and this ranks among the top. Bravo Rotelli, Bravo. The bottom line is if you live in the Charlotte area you are doing yourself a disservice by not eating here at least once, but I'm sure after one time you'll want to return.

Ok, so today I was in Rock Hill and I found this place. It's not the flashiest place on the outside but then again appearance doesn't count for much in my book. What matters is the food. This place is a buffet so you sit down, a waitress comes to get your drink orders and away you go. It's a standard chinese buffet, they've got your soups, your entrees, your desserts, they've got the whole shebang. The food is fairly decent as far as taste goes. I can't complain about the tea either. I can't find anything to critique except one area, the price. I was dining there with two others and the total was roughly $35. Folks that's more than $10 a pop after everything is all said and done. So the thing is if you are taking a group of people there you should make sure you have a decent amount of cash on you.
