The place was packed a d our waiter ran his feet off. The only 2 things were could have been a backup to the waiter and the... room we were in had 2 large groups and a few smaller tables. It was very loud in there. Read more

I did like the cloth tablecloths which is why I gave the place one star. Caprese salad was so disappointing for $15. Cheese was... okay. The tomatoes were hard and absolutely tasteless. I ordered spaghetti bolognese. It came out with two huge meatballs that Ididn't ask for. I tried them nevertheless. Hard. Tasteless and appeared to be something they kept from the night before. So, avery mediocre salad and lousy pasta for $60 For a restaurant that promises a real taste of Italy, I'd say they need to tryharder. Read more

Eggplant Parmigiano very good. Good service. 4th visit. Selections are a bit heavy w dairy. Could use more vegetables or... healthy sides or dishes. Read more

The #1 thing about this place is the service! Always top-notch, friendly, efficient! The food is spectacular also!

Small, quiet but very nice atmosphere for a night out. The service is good, the foods are delicious but not outstanding. There... is a missing note on spices which can make the food taste better. Read more

Atmosphere is nice for a quiet night out or even a larger party. Reservations are recommended. Service was decent and food was... good but seemed to have too much salt or some spice that dominated the veal. Pasta has a mild flavored marinara that was notmuch better than a jar of ragu. I'm sure they have pent of other delicious items and their specials sounded good so don't beafraid to try something new. Read more

First time trying this place. It was actually pretty good. A friend recommended while visiting family. I will say that I... personally have had better fettuccine but my mom ordered it and liked it so that's what matters. The Greek salad was really aspinach salad as there was literally ONE olive and as shown those 3 little pieces of feta. The waiter brought out a small cup ofolives which was nice. The little round things in the picture are fried mozzarella with marinara sauce. Very good! The pork chopwas so tender and seasoned just right! It wasn't my order but I had to try it. It was sooooooooo good! I ordered the cheesemanicotti. It was OK. The edges were a bit hard like it was under or overcooked. The waiter was terrific. Super attentive,friendly. I can't remember his name for the life of me but it was different. They only open for dinner and I think you have tomake a reservation. Good music, nice atmosphere. All in all we had a great time.
