replying to u/PopRockLollipop: Gaia! They’re not operating as a restaurant anymore but she was like this mean (and I say that with all due respect) Italian lady who would literally turn the lights off at closing time if people overstayed their welcome. My husband screwed up our reservation once and she made him stand there for a good 15 minutes while she looked for a third folding chair for him to be seating at our makeshift card table. But if you were respectful, then she liked you and she’d send you home with a bag of Italian pastries.
“That pesto lasagna is incredible”
