Food Poisoning!

My wife and I dined in today, ordering a Risotto Pescatora and Calamari Fritti. We substituted the salmon for white fish in the Rissotto since my wife is allergic.

The food tasted good - white fish was a little smelly - and the service was good. Our server was attentive and informative.

Unfortunately, I ended up throwing up in the restaurant bathroom after the meal. My wife started throwing up once we got home. Honestly, I wish I said something after I threw up, but just felt so dizzy that I wanted to get home to my own bathroom.

What a disappointing evening. After arriving for our birthday dinner reservation for my son we were seated in the corner, given water and promptly forgotten about. After a table who was seated 5 minutes after us was served their drinks we finally got the attention of an employee to ask for our waiter. The employee apologized and then said he could take our order. The food was delicious, but we were left with an unreasonable long wait between courses (other table’s food was brought out promptly) and without water refills, after asking for one. We got out of there as soon as we could. Lesson- don’t get sat in the corner, or better yet- get it to go.

We had tickets to a show at the Adams Theater and decided to eat at a restaurant close by. We were so happy we found this place. The food was amazing, the wine was fantastic, and the service was impeccable! We’re definitely coming back!

Amazing homemade pastas! The sauces were so flavorful! Only wish they had crudo appetizers and that their bread was softer as far as food. Portions were generous for the price. The ambience was cute but a little too bright on the night we went. Service was fantastic! We will make this a regular spot!

Absolutely incredible experience! The food was outstanding, every detail was thoughtfully handled, and the entire staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Truly exceptional service from start to finish. I can’t wait to come back and share this experience with more friends and family!

Pasta was not prepared properly but our server Marcello was extremely nice and attentive to our needs. Food needed some work but the excellent service provided was given in exchange. Good job Marcello !

Authentic Italian restaurant with fun decorations making you feel like you’re really in Italy. Food was amazing, house wine surprisingly great, and the service was top notch. Looking forward to adding this restaurant to the Italian food rotation.

Its really good restaurant.
Great food, all of ot tasyes great. Portions are hit and miss on what you order. One plate is too much, and other you leave hungry.
Atmosphere is great, but acoustics can get really bad.
Wait staff could get some proper training, but they are friendly and attentive.
