We entertained some friends from out of town. TB staff set us up in our own corner and were very attentive. Even accommodated us staying a bit too long...lol. We much enjoyed the food and service and much appreciate the great hospitality.

We were worried going in bc of all the reviews of food being salty and I am very sensitive to salt but we did not have that issue. The bread was very good but my only criticism was the oil and herbs could be room temperature and not cold bc it def would be way better. We had a cheese pizza with Roni and it reminded us of pizza we had in italy. The dough was light and charred just right in the wood oven. Just the right amount of toppings. We actually contemplated getting one to go home. I had the lobster ravioli and it was very light and delicious, my husband had the rigatoni della casa and he loved it. Not salty at all like others had said. My daughter had the Bolognese and it was sweet but we figured that was from the carrots or the wine. But it was delicious. Sam was our waitress and she was the perfect amount of attentiveness. My only complaint was they need a better selection of beer. A nice NE ipa from a local brewery would be good. Free dive doesnt cut it

the atmosphere was really nice. the appetizers were good and the service was good. however we were underwhelmed with our main dishes and the price was a tad high for the dinner overall.

Jorge with Offline - Joel the server was very professional and attentive, very great service! The bread was amazing! The spread was pretty good I would honestly put less minced garlic and bake whole garlic cloves with Olive Oil to keep the spread from overwhelming the palate with chopped garcil while not totally risking reducing the hint of garlic. The melanzane was very good! 10/10. The Pizza was okay I felt that the dough / crust lacked flavor! Brushing olive oil on the dough and crust will help with flavors, browning and keeping crust from being too soggy! 5/10. The Crème Brûlée was not bad but I felt like it wasn’t fresh, while the custard was great, creamy and cool the topping wasn’t crispy enough as if it’s been sitting for a long time. 7/10 but over all experience was good I recommend this place! And the server Joel 199/10 great service!

Nice, clean restaurant. Server was friendly, but didn't do basic server things: she didn't ask if we wanted anything to drink so on her second visit before she had left i had stopped her to ask if it was coke or pepsi products and then finally put our drink order in. Waited a while for bread as well which felt weird. Again, she was friendly, just missed the mark. Gave her 20% regardless. As for the food, I feel for that price, the food should not be as salty as it was. Both our dishes were extremely salty. We still ate them, but couldn't finish. The caprese app lacked balasamic glaze. Had a few drops of it on there as if they were running low. Disappointed in the experience as it had decent ratings.

Decent spot, food was pretty bland and unimpressive. Service was good though

I stopped in to order to go food. The server was in a terrible mood. Apparently it’s his last day today. I ordered chicken piccata with a side of pasta. Totally disgusting. The chicken is several days old and rubbery. My side of pasta was covered in red sauce. For $40 this is disgraceful.

We arrived and were greeted by the hostess and shown to our table. Our waiter whose name I was unable to hear because he whispered, appeared to be in a rush. When he returned with some bread and spice flavored oil for us he placed the items at the opposite end of the table which was very odd. I ordered the pappardelle bolognese as a main course along with prosciutto and melon with burata as an appetizer. My wife ordered the gnocchi bolognese. When the Prosciutto and melon came I cut a slice of the burata and gave it to my wife, who said the inside was thawing out. I tried it and she was right. Both of our main courses arrived, and what we received were big portions of bolognese flavored ground beef with some gnocchi for her and some pappardelle thrown in. To say I wasn’t impressed with either the overall experience would be an understatement. Sadly this establishment is one we will not be returning to.
New find. Very impressed, been there twice in last month. Food great, service and atmosphere very good.

food 4/5: I ordered the pizza with the sausage and the bell peppers and onions. The pizza sauce is so good! Very well seasoned have the right amount of sour and sweet flavors. The dough itself was pretty good. It didn’t have as much of a shoe as I would like for a Napoleon style pizza. the mozzarella cheese was a little tough and not as soft as I like it. Otherwise flavored very well.
service 5/5: surface was quick and efficient
ambiance 5/5: Rustic restaurant with a nice bar.

Just went there tonight for our Anniversary.. we we very excited to go after reading some positive reviews.. Service… not on target. Had to ask for water 2 times, asked for grated cheese 2 times, then asked for fresh pepper.. Chicken Marsala was good. My house special Pasta Bucatini was very starchy and overcooked. When asked how many dinner was, I told them… no response.. So glad some people enjoy TB, sadly we won’t be driving 25 miles to go back.
