Being Italian, I’m very picky, I like a nice homemade sauce, and being a southern Italian, I love red sauce well the meal I had here was terrific and very Italian, and I know from experience being that my father owned Italian restaurants in New York, and he was born in Italy, that this was good real Italian

We live locally and I am going to give you a very honest opinion because we want every restaurant to survive that is local. Party of 6...Meals were skimpy...very skimpy, especially the chicken piccata, marsala and Frances. Eggplant part was burnt. Prices are up there, especially for the size of the portion and the lack of including a side salad. The red sauce wasn't the best and asking for more because dish was needing it, I wish I hadn't. I knew there was no reason to get the attention of the owner, or tell the server(who was very nice, as usual), because I knew what the answer is...."it is what it is". Owner should be out of the kitchen here and there as this is so important in a local restaurant. It shows that the owner is in tune with his loyal and new customers and wants to please. Drinks were ok....pricey as well for the amount poured. Please get it together as everyone wants to see you succeed.Parking: Shopping center type of parking...plentiful.

We went to dine yesterday, my husband had the lasagna with bolognese sauce. I have to say 3 people could from this single serve. I had the chicken piccata. It was tasty but I enjoy if the chicken would have been sliced thin. Our waitress was fantastic. She constantly visited our table to make sure everything was good.Vegetarian options: Limited
We will not be back.worst italian food I have ever had $29 veal marsala was so all and thin floating in Marsalis broth instead of sauce. The cook obviously can not make a sauce as my husband and daughter had a soupy pasta meat dish served to them as well.the waitress was very unprofessional the $ 3 salad was edible but nothing to write home about. The 3 tiny hard rock chibata looking cold pcs of bread were not edible.we thought the original Italian restaurant that was here was bad. This tops it

Moved to this area recently and heard good things about the Italian food here—— and yes! It’s true! I love chicken Alfredo and I tried it here. So yummy! The sauce is exceptional, tender chicken (and generous portions) and the broccoli was not tough and not mushy! Just right?Friendly staff and the cook/owner came out to say hello. What a pleasant experience the four of us had here ! I almost licked the plate?We will be back??andddddd u must try the pistachio dessert!!!!

I actually don’t feel well this am. Think it could have been the bread or salad. This place is ok, but I m not sure that we will go again. Menu has about 8 veal dishes. Why? I had the shrimp scampi, really just linguini & shrimp. Very watery. Please find a different way to make garlic bread. Go to Publix and buy some frozen. It would be better. Calamari was hot but all of the breading fell off when you pick it up. Ordered a glass of wine and finished the app & salad before I had to remind waitress that I was still waiting for my glass.

Booked 2 weeks in advance for Valentine's Day and they well overbooked. We didn't get seated for nearly an hour after reservation times and we weren't the only couple/group to experience this. They didn't tell us there was a limited menu at any point until the server handed it to us.

We're seated right away in a busy restaurant. Wait staff was friendly and efficient. We had 2 issues felt rushed but it was Valentine's Day so we understood about that and even though my wife's veal Madeira was very tasty the portion was very small. I would try to go again on a less busy day to get a better idea of what the restaurant is.
Waited 15 minutes for someone to wait on us. Then they argued about who was going to take our table??! Then they asked if we wanted anchovies on Caesar salad and yes they charged without letting us know.. When we questioned this owner came out and argued with us. Drinks are very expensive. $15. Per drink is very expensive. Not going back. We have had a less than good experience every time we went!

Excellent service. We were seated immediately. Server took our drink orders and starters as soon as we were seated. We started with Risotto "meatballs." Rice shaped like meatballs and served with marinara sauce. Salad was large and full of nuts and raisins with vinagarette dressing. We ordered Eggplant parmesan. Portions were plenty for 2 people. Overall the food was very good but everything could have been served hotter. Our friends ordered chicken masala and also enjoyed. The portion didn't seem as large to me but they were satisfied. I would definitely return and ask for items to be heated longer.

We always enjoy our dining experiences here, and especially love the lasagna bolognese. It is mouthwatering, the best we’ve ever had!!’ Highly recommend it!
The food is amazing! For apps, I had the risotto balls. It was so so but my colleague enjoyed them. For entree, I had the Scallop & Prosciutto alla Vodka. This was simply amazing after they switch the marina sauce to the alfredo sauce. It was even better the next day.
