This was the worst Caesar Salad I’ve had in a long time—Somehow, they managed to get it wrong. Definitely avoid the large size; the small has much better proportions.

The pizza is solid, but that’s where the positives end. It’s more of a pizza place than a true Italian restaurant, and the rest of the menu items reflect that. I won’t be returning anytime soon.

My boyfriend and I came in this week. We had the Tre Carne, the pizza was amazing and the service was top notch. Our server was Doug and he made sure we had everything we needed. It was a lovely evening.

We just absolutely have always loved the pizza here. This time I thought I’d go outside the box and order the bolognese pasta. Omg….so amazing…home-made pasta Especially cause I added some truffle oil to it=extra YUM! We had the BEST server, Steven. He was super friendly, knowledgeably, and attentive. It’s tough to find good servers these days that have all the qualities and I’m an ex server/bartender myself. We really enjoyed our evening!
