We hadn't seen our friend in a long time due to her husband's illness, but we finally got together for dinner. The restaurant offered a wonderful selection of salads, pastas, and chicken dishes. The beet salad was outstanding, as was the mixed greens with roasted vegetables. I was worried that the main courses would be small, but I was wrong! Each dish was generous enough that we ended up taking home leftovers. My wife's lasagna was enormous—I would recommend it for sharing between two people. My tortellacci came with five pockets filled with cheese, and I asked for roasted tomato sauce instead of vodka sauce; it was delicious and perfectly seasoned.

The table was unstable and the chairs wobbled. The calamari appetizer was disappointing, so we sent it back. Next, we tried the shrimp appetizer, which was overly salty and almost inedible. I ordered a Margarita, but it was the worst one I've ever had at a restaurant, so I sent that back, too. After that, we had seen enough and requested our check to leave and find somewhere else to eat. They didn't charge us for the appetizer or drinks, and I made sure to leave a generous tip for the waitress, as it wasn't her fault.
The food is fantastic! However, during our last visit, we were served by an older lady who was quite rude. We observed that if you ordered drinks or appetizers, she was friendly, but if you didn’t, the service was drastically lacking and she was unpleasant. Even when we requested bread, it felt like a struggle. Meanwhile, the larger table next to us received an abundance of bread without even asking! It’s disappointing to see one negative experience overshadow such a wonderful local restaurant.
My visit was not very pleasant. The waitress seemed to believe she could remember all the orders without taking notes. Out of our group of four, she only entered three dinner orders, which meant my husband had to wait an extra 20 minutes while they hurriedly processed his order. You really need to get organized over there. Book a table now
Stopped in for lunch with my daughter and made a meal out of absolutely amazing appetizers. Honey ricotta, crispy zucchini, and arancini were all fantastic. Service was perfect and we had a wonderful time. We will go back!
The ricotta cheesecake was the best I've ever had, and the blackened shrimp appetizer was fantastic!
I always love the food from this place. The quality is exceptional, and the service is excellent.
Very good food. Ate inside and felt very safe with the precautions they are taking Book a table now
