“This is one of THE PLACES to come for authentic Italian food ! If you want to try something different, unique and outrageously delicious, try the " caralli Bada Bing" !! Strongly suggest you split this dish as an appetizer with someone as it's so rich ! It's prepared at the table side using in house made pasta, tomatos, basel, and aged Parmesan cheese scrapped from a 100 lb wheel on the cart ! It's a show preparation and out of this world delish ! Their other dishes are excellent as well, and all pasta is made in-house !Reservations are a must in prime season, especially if you want to eat between 5:30 and 7:30. There are many good people to wait on you here, but Linda, Donna, and Colin are outstanding !! Enjoy ? ? !Features: No masks, but tables sanitized after each guest leaves the table.Parking: You may find parking hard to come by in the free lot behind the restaurant, but we've always found a place on the street within 2 blocks.Kid-friendliness: Certainly attentive to our every need !!“

“We loved the bada bing shrimp, meatballs, calamari, and burrata for starters. I wasn't a fan of the VALDOSTANA DI POLLO (fried chicken balls/bites). They didn't have a great flavor and the sauce basically tasted like melted garlic butter. We ordered the Sacchettini Milani for dinner and it was delicious. It has a light pear flavor that isn't too strong with the Gorgonzola cheese sauce. Everyone at the table loved it!“

“This was by far the BEST Italian food we've ever had. My husband is Italian and from the northeast, and we were so impressed!! The owner is extremely accommodating and generous. We came in late as we were passing by heading south on the highway, and we were so happy we did. I had the chicken marsala which was cooked to perfection. The eggplant parm and gnocchi with bolognese were fantastic. My youngest son had the spaghetti and meatballs. They were the best meatballs we've ever had!!! Everything was delicious! We ended the evening with a delectable slice of tiramisu. We live more than an hour away, but we will be back for sure. This place is amazing!!“

“No line to enter. Waiter was friendly and took our order promptly. Food came in a timely manner. No one checked with us after the food was delivered. No one asked to refill our beverages. We summoned a waitress to bring our bill. This was not our original waiter. Food was good but the service was lacking.“

I heard about this bakery from a local, otherwise would have never known it existed. I can never seem to find local bakeries.“

“I’ve heard for years that we needed to go get pizza from this restaurant and finally did. VERY good quality, heavy pizza. Highly recommend! I ordered the food to go so I cannot truly speak on the service but the lady who took my call and then helped me when I picked up was friendly. Will definitely be ordering again.“
