The service was good . Or at least the girl that helped me. The amount of food is terrible! It was like they gave me half of what regular pasta places give me. I'm not a big guy! I weigh 160 and walked away hungry and cost me $23 for just pasta no meat ! Sigh! I will not go back, what a bummer

Had dinner here for the first time last weekend. My server and the host that seated me were both okay. I ordered the shrimp and scallop pasta dish- it was bland and flavorless, and noodles were a bit on the harder side. My server brought out bread and my soup first, and yes the soup was delicious. However the bread was simply just bread and also my server did not give me any dipping sauce. I saw a male server walking around with sauces and serving his tables really well. May come back to give the restaurant another try, hopefully will have a better experience.

This is the Creamy Mushroom Braised Beef Risotto and the Costolette Brasate and Gnocchi !!! The first dish were boneless braised beef short ribs topped in a creamy mushroom sauce served over a side of risotto and asparagus! The meat was nice for a braised beef dish, and the sauce was not super bad! The mushrooms were super good in my opinion, and I wasn’t really a big fan of the risotto because I’m not really used to cold rice, but it was good! The asparagus was pretty good! The second dish were braised beef short ribs too but with a savory marsala gravy sauce served with a rosemary butter pesto gnocchi and asparagus! The sauce for this dish was soooo much better than the mushroom sauce in my opinion, so the marsala sauce is definitely a good choice to get here! It was thick, savory, and a dark red color! The gnocchi had a strong pesto taste, and it was nice to eat! We also were given bread and soup! We tried the minestrone and the seafood bisque! The minestrone soup didn’t taste like Olive Garden’s, but it did taste much more authentic and real! The seafood bisque was superrr good, and it was filled with so much flavor! We went on Valentine’s Day, so it was a bit busy, but the workers did a great job serving us!

Siena was good. Lobster bisque delicious especially with the bread. Wonderful service and wasn't too bad with my little kids. Will ask for light dressing or dressing on the side next time. Will get the bruschetta next time, had major fomo

The most wonderful male hospitality professional provided the most excellent service on the evening of 12/31. He gave more of a managerial/ownership vibe, but possessed a wealth of knowledge and common human courtesy. Wine knowledge. He even opened the door upon exiting. Food was great!

I have came here 3 times and it has always been good service and food. They are always checking up on us. My favorite things to order are the vanilla Italian soda and the pasta siena, I still have so many more foods to try but so far those are my favorites. Overall I love this place, the staff are nice and friendly, and the food is great. This place never disappointsParking: So far I haven’t had any problems with parking. But because there are many stores nearby it would be understandable if it were hard to find parking.
