The pizza is very good, the rest of the food is really not (including deserts). That’s a shame because the place is really nice and welcoming

Great vibe, nice servers, but WAY OVERPRICED!! $60 for 4 Ketel One cocktails which was not surprising, but when you charge $4.50 for a splash of cranberry and soda???? Really? Is this the new norm?? I don’t know about you, but whenever I order a drink, and I ask for soda or tonic, it’s part of the cocktail.
We shared a pizza which was outstanding, but an individual for $36, an appetizer for $18, salad for $16 for a grand total of $150!! With the tip $180!! Outrageous!! Almost $200 for 2 of us, and I was still hungry when I got home.
Never again.

Since when is pizza $21-30? In Italy you pay $5 for it.
Food is good, but get ready to pay dearly. If you manage to find parking.

Waiter was inattentive, pasta with clams and seafood was bland. No desserts left by the time we finished our meal. Pizza salty. I don't get the attraction. For me it's a no.

My friends and I were quite excited to try this place but left disappointed. The restaurant looks nice and was not crowded. We were sat indoors because they had no open tables outside which was fine with us. The mussels admittedly were good and my friend enjoyed her truffle pizza. The pasta dishes arrived fairly quickly except my lasagna. I had to flag the waiter down and ask him to check on my order. By the time it arrived, the rest of the table was almost done with their meal. The clam pasta my friend ordered was beyond al dente, with no seasoning, she barely ate the dish. Whereas my lasagna pasta was overcooked and mushy. Plus they don’t have fresh parmigiana and we had to ask for bread which is supposed to come with the table. They charged my friend $21 for a mediocre martini after three people came to figure out her drink. One of about three tables inside, the waiter addressed our table twice. We do not plan to return.

Terrible restaurant.
On my first visit, despite my dissatisfaction they charge me the full price and said I should give the place a 2nd try and they’ll “take care of me”
Last night I was craving pizza. Me and my partner are “Piola” pizza fans and wanted to try something else.
I ordered 2 personal pizza and one glass of white wine. Paid $7 extra for Burrata which was SPOILED tasted sour and fermented and we tossed it.
The pizza was super average. Every time we picked a slice; the entire toppings slide right off.
Then the bill came. It’s was $87 dollars. I couldn’t believe my eyes. We order the same size pizza twice a week for $40 for both.
Left 18% to the server who was very sweet and kind, and paid over $100 in total for just wanting some pizza. What a rip off how do they have the guts to charge that.

The service was disappointing and overpriced. It wasn’t worth the cost, and the quality was poor. I wouldn’t recommend it.

The place looks cozy and nice. But service could be better.
I ordered a cocktail( which I’ve got after my meal) and a pizza, but previously I asked about the sauce ( red or white), the server told me about red sauce and when it’s came out - no sauce at all, a lot of cheese only.
When I asked the server, how it should be - he wasn’t able to answer.

I would like to leave a big “thank you” for a guy( not sure who is he, maybe busser or runner) who didn’t speak English, but he was trying to help and make his job good.
