Great food and drinks, nice atmosphere. They even split our entrees into separate bowls since we were sharing, so that was nice if them. I only wish they had more space between tables for more intimacy for dates.
Prices are high these days in restaurants. Portions were adequate. Unless I'm happy hour- alcohol was priced high
Great food and cocktails!!!! Service was just OK. Seemed everything took too long. We were a party of three seated at a table for four and the table was congested. The staff should be better at clearing the table between courses. Every glass should have its own cocktail napkin. We only received one cocktail napkin with the water and didn't get a second with the cocktails. Two of our three main courses were mistakenly redirected to another table. The staff handled this beautifully by rushing the kitchen to prepare two more meals and comped us for the mistake. Well done! The mark of a great organization is how they handle mistakes and they were spot on! The restaurant is loud and very casual but the prices were a little high for the level of service and atmosphere. Last thing... there was an issue paying the bill. I gave the waiter my CC and he brought back the receipt, no credit card print out to leave a tip and sign. Again, quickly rectified by bringing the CC reader to the table but overall far too many minor hiccups. We will definitely try it again, just not on a busy Saturday night.
I had an event here for my sales meeting with 80 people and it was amazing! My team could not stop raving about the meatballs and all of the food. Super responsive when setting up the venue as well. We went to the night before to try it out and a few favorites were the truffle pasta as well as the salmon. So good and a MUST go to!
Excellent food. Delicious cocktails. Service was attentive, pleasant and humorous. Prices are slightly more than expected but everything seems to be more expensive nowadays.

Our first visit a few days ago was not too impressive. The restaurant is large, bright, and lively. It also is very loud. With all the metal and glass, there is no noise deadening at all. We ordered calamari as an appetizer and the quality was below average. For entrees, we had lasagna and chicken parm. The flavors for both were average; nothing special. The prices are a bit high, but not bad. The service was excellent.
Crostata was very bland, and almost no sausage. Portion was huge.
Had one of the insalate as well. Also huge portion, and it was good, but two others in our group split the Strawberry Burrata and the portion was significantly less. Mine arrived on a plate. Theirs arrived in tiny soup cups. Together they were given maybe 1/3 of mine.
Calamari was cold when it arrived to the table. Sent it back.

Great food, great service, only thing was we sat outside and it is like a playground in the middle of everything so there's a bunch of kids being kids so not a big deal.
The food and atmosphere is great! I have never had a bad meal or bad service. Highly recommend!

Overall the food was good. Flavors were good, presentation was good. Food was a bit delayed. A few things that didn't make the cut for a five-star review - Lighting was low--we were put in a corner table and the lights were not working so half our table was dark - Water refills were infrequent Server was very nice and polite, but service requires being both nice AND good, not just one or the other. Probably wouldn't go there again given the sheer number of Italian restaurants available with as good/better food and better service.
Outstanding food & service. It's my favorite restaurant. I had relatives from the UK visiting & they loved it too.
Great meal with friends! Environment was comfortable and quiet. Great Gluten Free dish pictured for you. We will be back!
The scratch-made Focaccia bread starter was perfect- Elevate it by adding the burrata and roasted garlic! Chicken Parm was delicious! Crispy breading and very tender. We will be back!
Food quality has noticeably declined. Will likely not return to this location. Disappointed
