Absolutely wonderful food! Homemade, fresh and delicious. My only hope is that you hire more help. Mary was absolutely wonderful... but she clearly had too many tables and was overworked. I would hate to see you lose a great server over this. Overall, a greatmeal and would def go back! Read more
The gnocchi was the best I've ever had. Pappardelle with lamb sauce is excellent as well as the brussels sprouts appetizer and... spinach side. The desserts are excellent, especially the mousse with spicy toffee sauce. Read more

Oh no matter what orderthe carpaccio best, best, best!!! Read more
Wasn't sat or acknowledged for a few minutes after entering, place was half empty on a weekend. Friend of mine talked about this... place before, not much has changed. Stick to the cheaper side of the menu for sure, won't change your experience. Complimentarybread and seasoned oil for starters, then I ordered the Carpaccio which has raw beef. Beautiful plating, but what is so spicyabout the sauce? Mustard shouldn't take away this much from the dish to where I thought I just ate a hot chicken wing. Noambiance music either, noise canceling methods are needed around the ceiling too. Some of the customers had to use the lights ontheir phones to read the menus, it's so dark in here. I would still come again for their unique food choices ???? Read more
Me and my family were in town for visit. We came to this restaurant because of online reviews and it didn?t disappoint. We were... a party of 5 and we got three appetizers and four entrees. The olives tapenade is amazing! That was a preview of what wascoming! We ordered the beef carpaccio, the mussels in white wine and the snails as appetizers. The three dishes weredelicious. For entrée we order the Linguine al granchio, the cavatelli, the eggplant and the gnocchi. The pasta is homemade andis really good! We have to say that all the dishes were amazing. The pasta were cook perfectly al dente, we loved all of them.But the gnocchi was the best gnocchi we ever had, it was fluffy and not dense at all. It was just the perfectconsistency. Overall the restaurant is clean and following covid 19 procedures. We saw the waitress wearing mask all the timeand cleaning as she goes, washing her hands after taking the empty finished dishes, also cleaning and disinfecting the menusafter we used them. Very happy with the experience there! Amazing food and service! Read more
Don't let the strip mall fool you, this is a quality restaurant! Reservations are recommended if you want to eat here. We... ordered a shrimp and cauliflower pasta dish and a brisket pasta dish. Perfectly cooked pasta and shrimp. The brisket was tenderand tasty. Both were fabulous! Portions were big enough for several meals. Wines were numerous and they let you take home thebottle if you don't finish the wine. Atmosphere is similar to many NYC Italian restaurants. Intimate. White tablecloth. Our billwas around $85 with tip. 2 entrees and 2 wines. Worth every penny and the 40 minute drive. Can't wait to go again!!! Read more
