First time customers from Westchase. Our waiter, Mike, was friendly and attentive. Food was wonderful...Eggplant dish for me and shrimp, scallops and clams for husband.

So they are fairly new. Table of 7. Drinks watered down, bread plain, broccoli plain, noodles taste like they just came out the water with no seasonings. Personally I had the ribeye which was good. The chocolate cake was bad too. I will give credit to the service by our server Mike. Oh...the salad was good.

Always exciting to get new businesses in the area. I loved the decor, open patio concept. We ordered Spaghetti &'Meatballs (1 adult portion & a kid portion) and salmon. The pasta is pasta, but did not blow me away. The meatballs were GREAT. I ordered the salmon, not too good. It was also a bit expensive for where & what it was. Not jumping to go back soon.

Wowie what a rip off-ordered from the bar...a salad to go with Burrata...$16.95!!!! It came with a few slices of tomatoes cucumbers red onions, with like a cup of romaine!!!! I can see paying for something worthwhile, but really?!!!!!! I should have ordered the "burrata"! Straight up from the website, for &12.95!!!! It lists slow roasted tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and arugula!!!! Called to let them know why the difference? And they said they no longer have that one on the menu???!!! Wouldn't that be something to disclose to your consumer?!!!! The "Burrata" item is identical to the Burrata Salad and the only difference is Arugula, which is typically more money than romaine!!!! Change your website and remove the item if you no longer offer it!!!! Or better yet just charge your consumer the extra $4.00 and don't tell them! Wow it's just salad folks, and we don't live in Hawaii...I don't see your place succeeding if you're just out to rip off your patrons!!!! Buyer beware!!!!

Food was overpriced and was over salted. Also for an Italian restaurant the pasta was over cooked and lacked flavor. Also the flavored tea tasted like cough syrup. The wait staff wasn't very attentive at times. Portion size was all over the place, for the price that the dishes are you would expect a little more.

We simply did not enjoy this place. We were literally the only couple in the restaurant on a Tuesday night at 7pm. Our server was very inattentive and the food was only okay. We really wanted to like it but we just didn't. $9 for a kids meal? $18 for simple pasta. It's just too expensive for what it is. On top of that the door is hard to find and it looked closed. We will just go to the Olive Garden across the steer.

This place is awesome! Yes it's a little pricey compared to Olive garden, not honestly it's about on par with Carrabba's price point. Italian food is typically on the higher side anyway.
Deffenetly not a mom & pop Italian place but it's new and I wanted to try it I talk to our great waiter chris and he explained how they cook everything fresh to order and love the feed back of there customers. I can say I like the food alot I would deffenetly come back. The calamari where perfect not to crispy not to soft and the seasonings where just right the marinara sauce was very fresh and tasted really good.I ate the chicken parmesan in alfredo sauce and it was delicious also tasted the chicken marsala and it had great flavor and mushroom sauce tasted amazing. the in house cannoli was delicious as well the filling was very creamy and flavorful great dessert overall great place and atmosphere deffenetly recommend

Came here for my hubs birthday. We had a party of 17 and was able to book the reservation online through Yelp or Opentable which made it very convenient. I did end up calling them after making the original reservation due to number of people on the original reservation changing but the staff was friendly on the phone. I even received a text the day before to confirm the reservation which I liked. When we arrived they had the table area all setup. We were greeted by the waitress and told that there would be 2 of them working our table that evening. The one waiter seemed to be new and possibly shadowing because he kept getting my daughters Coke order wrong so I had to let the female waitress know each time we received a refill so that she could change it from Diet Coke to regular Coke. Service was a bit slower than I would've liked however we were a very large party so I was nothing but patient and won't hold that against them. The food was good -- but not the best I've had in the Italian realm. I ordered the Eggplant which I thought would've been served with spaghetti but it wasn't. It's just a heaping tower of eggplant! The eggplant is THICK and tasty but it ended up taking some of my daughters pasta from her chicken parmigiana since she had quite a bit which made it even better. So an area of improvement would be to serve this with spaghetti and if it's an option and I missed it for the wait staff to clarify that with guests. My daughter got the chicken parmigiana which was good but said she does prefer Mac Grill over this one. The serving size is rather large so it could be something that can be shared, at least the pasta is. There is only 1 chicken breast served with this dish. Others in our party also enjoyed their meals.

2 stars because the service was pretty good but the FOOD/DRINKS were gross. I feel like I burned my money. The only reason I didn't make it a big deal was because it was for a birthday, your hosts and servers are on point, but what's going on behind closed doors with your cooks and bartenders?? For the amount I spent, I should have gone to BJs next door.

Just had the chicken parmesan with spaghetti and the house salad. It was amazing!! The service was great...we had Chris (ask for him, he'll take great care of you). One of the managers even stopped by to speak to us...all in all, we had a terrific experience & would recommend it to everyone!!

Homemade Everything! absolutely delicious food. Save room for the Cannoli! Service was as good as the food. Definitely a new favorite.
