Been here before and have to say I was disappointed in the food this time around. Had chicken parmigiana and the chicken was so dry more like a cutlet. Lasagna was just ok nothing spectacular. Service was great & atmosphere was great.

Everything was delicious! We had arincinni, peach burrata, cod Florentine, veal parmigiana, and chicken parmigiana. It was all good. It was the first time my daughter and son-in-law brought their infant son into a restaurant. The people next to the table we were seated at were very unhappy about having a baby near them. We asked to be moved and were obliged after some back and forth. We were seated in the back and our new server was Jake. Jake was incredible!! He turned an uncomfortable situation around. The baby never cried once but it was so nice to have a server who understood our rush to move dinner along kind of quickly. He was just super accommodating and kind the entire time.

We have eaten here many times over the years and have always enjoyed our food, service and the ambiance. This night was no different. We were able to book a late reservation (same day, on a Friday evening). The restaurant was busy yet our server Amy was attentive, friendly and prompt. I had a dish I get often and my husband tried a new special of the night along with the bruschetta and we both had house salads. My entree was as delicious as always and my husband's entree was incredible. Our entire meal was excellent.

Absolutely wonderful! The food was outstanding. I had a chicken dish and my husband had a steak dish. Both were cooked to perfection. Service was beyond excellent! She knew the menu and made several recommendations. She checked on us often, but not too much. They were busy, but never felt rushed to be done. We will definitely return.

It was our wedding anniversary and the waiter was great. A couple joined us and they were very annoying and the waiter handled them with grace. I will def go back without them. The veal Marsala and calamari were delicious

Quite possibly the best Italian food I've ever eaten! Multiple dishes are simply fantastic.

We enjoyed the food and server was pleasant. Our fav appetizer was not available but we had a great substitution. Thank you for making our birthday dinner wonderful.

A very busy evening for the restaurant. I called ahead and asked if I could get a table near the door as I'm in an orthopedic boot. We arrived and table was as close to the door as possible. It was a wonderful evening

Wife and I started coming here again after a not so good experience many years ago. We are very picky about our Italian. (Both coming from NYC and large Italian families.) In the past week we've been here 4 or 5 times. Lol. I love veal so I normally get one of the delicious veal entrees. Veal can be hard to cook as most often when I've had it it's overdone and tough. (Which is one of the reasons we stopped coming years ago- overcooked veal) Last night I decided to change it up and had the Tenderloin Voldastano. Very good. I was cutting the tenderloin with my butter knife. Plus it had a good flavor. Pasta is always light. Unfortunately my wife's meal wasn't as good. She had chicken. She's had different chicken dishes this past week. Last night's chicken was way overcooked and ridiculously dry. Sauce was also very watery. Waitress was awesome and changed out that dish with a GF vodka cream sauce with sausage. My wife loves a good vodka sauce. This was very good. Last week she had 3 different chicken dishes with a different cream sauce each time. Chicken was little over cooked and somewhat dry even with the sauce. The various cream sauces all were very flavorful but very watery; like the pasta wasn't fully drained when they put them together. That kinda killed the meals for her. Understandably so, as who likes a water cream sauce? Should be thick. Won't stop us from going back. Service is always good and staff is always friendly.

Disclaimer first, if you love to see Fettucine Alfredo on the menu at an Italian restaurant, then this review is not for you. My wife is Italian, and we lived in Italy for several years, so we are somewhat picky about Italian food. I was excited to have the peach and fresh mozzarella bruschetta, but they were out of peaches and I was talked into the caprese. Super disappointed. Looked like Costco mozzarella, definitely not fresh or buffalo. I left it untouched, and the server did not even ask me if there was anything wrong. Was offered parmesan for both our fish dishes (an Italian "no, no". Others in the restaurant seemed very happy with their food, so if you like American-style Italian food, give this a go. I will not return.

Fantastic experience...food and service were out! Our server Taylor made it a great and fun night!

We were seated in the back section which has a garage door and feels more patio style. A couple was allowed to bring their dog inside the restaurant in a stroller and it did bark, so that was disappointing. Our server was mid, did not give a thorough overview like the other server in the room did with his tables. The food, however, was fantastic. Bread, salads, and entrees were delicious. The ambiance would be romantic inside but the back room did not have the same upscale atmosphere especially with the dog stroller present. Overall it was a good experience but could have been better if seated inside the main room with a different server.
