The manicotti was a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning. The filling was also a bit dry. I would add more sauce next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The filling was very creamy and heavy, and the manicotti shells were a bit too soft. I think I would have preferred a lighter filling and a crispier shell.
