Their sign says they close at 10pm on Sat. We come in and instead of welcoming us, they said that they are closing and are no longer serving. I said it's not even 9 pm and your sign says you close at 10pm. She said, no, the sign is wrong. OK!!!

Delicious! Really enjoy the chicken piccata so much flavor. Tried the meat lasagna very good.

Sad. I was in the mood for some Italian and so decided to try a new place. Let's just say I'm never going back. The chopped Italian salad was essentially just lettuce. The meat sauce pasta was tasteless and the pasta was overcooked. The only redeeming quality was the bread and chimmichuri sauce which was warm and tasty. Otherwise, I crossed this off the list.

Friend I had lunch at Pestos. Her food was fine. My food was awful. I had Eggplant Par-magian. The food tasted spoiled. I complained to the waitress. She said “there is nothing wrong with the food, everyone always likes it. It must be you” When it was time to pay, I didn’t leave a tip and wrote on the charge receipt the reason why. She came at me yelling that I should not write that on the receipt and berated me in front of the other customers.

Don't let the old decor prevent you from dining or taking out from here. The food is excellent. We have tried many dishes, and all were delicious. My husband's favorite is veal Marsala and mine is seafood cioppino. The lasagne is excellent. We see many take-out orders of pizza. The bread is warm and fresh, and we usually ask for seconds.

Food: The garlic bread was not great. The Carbonara did not look or taste like a Carbonara but was nice. The calzone was very good.

Service: even though there were only 3 tables (6 people) we had to ask for service multiple times and the food took longer than expected.

Atmosphere: for some reason the restaurant was playing what sounded like funeral music.

Did not disappoint. The pizza crust made well, sauces very tasty. I’ll order again and will most likely be where I’ll get all my pizza from now on
