Al Fresco - Table reservation

I'm glad other people have had good experiences here, but I genuinely don't get it. I've eaten here multiple times because of proximity, both for dine-in and takeout, but never been impressed with the food. The most recent attempt was the final straw.

Ristorante Al Fresco is a casual family Italian cuisine BYOB restaurant serving lunch and dinner located in Mt, Laurel, NJ. I ordered the buffalo meatball starter.

I would like to give this place a 10+! Not only delicious food, (and plenty of it) but the staff, can not express how pleasant, efficient, and friendly they were to not only our party of 17, but every other party that was there. The place was packed! Don't forget it is BYOB.
