Obviously this is the place to go for great Italian food. Went here for the first time a few months ago... I know, what took so... long, right? Returned last night with some friends and my parents. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered, and though everyone wasfull we all ended up ordering dessert anyway! I had the scallop and mushroom pasta but I dug in too fast to get a picture,sorry... :) This was a bowl of pasta with a lightly seasoned olive oil sauce, small (Calico?) scallops, and mushrooms. Ididn't expect the bite-sized scallops, but they were appropriate to the serving in the bowl as they didn't need to be cut up. There was just enough sauce to be able to sop up the rest of it from the bottom of the bowl with a couple more pieces of thefresh homemade bread. I was cajoled into ordering dessert, so I got the cannolis and this time I took a picture before I stuffedthem in my face, lol! One order is two small cannolis, about 5 inches long. The shell was a little thick with a good crunchand the cream inside was a lot heavier than I expected, but not too heavy. The other dishes and desserts which everyone else hadand enjoyed included the veal parm, chicken parm, chicken almondine, fruit flambe, lemon cake, and cappuccino gelato. Read more
We throughly enjoyed ourselves! Loved all the history depicted throughout the place. We had a party of 10. A cozy little place.... Lacy & Nicole were great servers! Alex Fiato the owner came out and sang for my birthday. My grandson loved the bubbles &lights. The food was authentic and amazing!!! Definitely a wonderful experience! Forgot to take a picture of all the wonderfulfood, but got one of a single meatball. LOL! Read more
First things first, aesthetically speaking, absolutely adorable. It feels like going into my Italian grandpa's wine... cellar/hideaway. We had a large group and were sat at the party table, placed in the loft of the restaurant. Cozy, for sure,although, it is quite dim lit, in the room we were sat in, almost dark. I hesitate to mention that there are photos of DonaldTrump on the wall, which was off-putting to our group. Our server, Michelle, was very sweet & attentive, great service. Now, onto the food. The noodles are handmade delights. Perfect texture, not too soft, not too firm. The sauces were very disappointing,along with the lousy, soggy bread, and lackluster salad. If you like sauce very basically flavored, you may find it to suit you.Another thing it pains me to mention; the pepper dispensers/shakers really needed to be cleaned, they were all terribly filthy.I'll likely give them another try (if someone else is paying). I do think we should all continue supporting local restaurants. Read more
Small romantic candle lit restaurant with a great atmosphere. The waitress was personal and the food was fairly quick. You can... certainly tell the noodles were homemade and fresh. The wine reccomend was paired wonderfully. The portions appeared to besmaller but was enough to fill us up. The prefer you make a reservation here. Read more
