We started with a very nice Rose wine then a very good Pino Noir with dinner. Food was pretty good - great Caesar salad with generous anchovies on top. Excellent fresh out of the oven crusty Italian bread. Seafood pasta and penne pasta both pretty good. The atmosphere on the patio was comfortable and inviting.All together, we have a nice evening with friends!

We have been there many times. The server never told us the specials, but told other tables. She forgot to bring us bread, olive oil and vinegar and we asked several times. She didn't ask if we wanted another glass of wine and cleared the table while we were still eating.

Steam table quality of food. Very surprised by 4 and 5 stars.

We cannot remember eating at a place with food that was this bad.Eggplant Parmesan tasted like they used the cheapest mozzarella they could find.Service was lackluster at best.

Had a delicious dinner. Very good quality and very nice staff!!!!Thank you for the evening.
Patio was closed because of the wind and staff did an admirable job with the shortage of tables. Waitress was very pleasant and the food was very good , I had the chicken marsela and it was delicious.

Dry chicken was replaced with a fish dish offered by the waiter. Then the bill came and the charge was $16 more for the fish dish! We questioned this and the answer was, you ordered the fish it’s more expensive. We thought it was offered in exchange for the chicken. It wasn’t. We weren’t told that. How ever a free glass of wine was delivered to us. The restaurant felt this was a good exchange. Personally I think this was not a great way to handle the situation. I feel like we were led to believe the fish was replacing the chicken. The free glass of wine wasn’t even necessary. Or asked for. I don’t think you handled this very well.

Excellent service, from the moment we walked in the door... Waitress, Diane, was so sweet and accommodating, as were the busboys... Overall ambience, good food and great service make it a winning combination. Can't wait to go go back with friends.

Really delicious meals and prompt, gracious service. Fresh chunks of Parmesan served with warm bread for the table is a nice touch. Good wine list too. We'll go back—definitely recommend ?
