Good tasting food. Got the balsamic chicken sandwich, very flavorful. Fair price, will be back. Recommend this local restaurant.

The taste is so so. Anemic spaghetti Bolognese. Very watery and bland. Forgetful place. So so service. Not encouraging for one to come back. They don’t seem to care if you do.

Everything about this restaurant is SO good. The food, the atmosphere, and the staff. It was a really experience to be here and my partner and I will definitely come back. I highly recommend this place if you love good food ?

Nothing very special about the food. Didnt expect the serving size to be small considering the price. Almost 27 dollars for a small plate of fettuccine and 16 dollars for 15pcs of small calamari. The taste is ordinary. The ambiance I would say is ok. Music is fine. In terms of service, my biggest pet peeve is to be rushed. The moment I checked my phone here comes the server asking if she can clear my table. I do not like to be rushed esp if my plate isnt clear yet. I like to enjoy my food and my time. Do not rush me. This server whose name is Riley still came to pull the plates away.

The staff was helpful with recommendations and the food was delicious. The pizza & cheese stuffed chicken are our favorites. Been coming here for 12 years, and the food continues to be great.

My husband and I’s fav place! We went here for our first date 6 years ago and have come back ever since. Our go-to for date night. The chicken & mashed potatoes were delicious. Loved coming back and reminiscing about our memories from our first date. Always a joy coming back here! The bread and spread is always a bonus! Freshly baked & you can tell of it!

PAY IN CASH!!! Went here on Saturday and the waiter Marco, stole my card info. He went on to buy over $600 worth of stuff, he spent $300 on tat supplies.. which makes sense since he does have a lot of tattoos. I always use Apple Pay but this was the first time I used my physical card!
Mediocre quasi Italian. Noisy. Wait staff attentive if squeezed. $$.

We sat at the bartop, the bartender walked past us 4 times before even acknowledging us, the restaurant was not busy. She gave us menus and got our drinks, took another 15m to come back to get our appetizer order, and then we had to flag her down to get our dinner order in because she was talking to 2 other servers. During that time, another couple came in and was waiting for her to acknowledge and bring menus. Our food took almost 20 mins to come out, not because of the kitchen, but because our server/bartender was chatting with other servers. I saw our food in the window for almost 10m before she brought it to us. Food was delicious, but the service was definitely lacking.
