Updating. Returned after the prior visit and everything was very good. They were busy but the service was excellent.

We ate there a few weeks ago and everything was fine. Wasn't able to reserve a table for dinner tonight but stopped by at 8:15. Told the host we wanted a table for four for just dessert. He said they were completely full even though there were numerous tables open. He turned away from us after that. Django, Malo and Centro are three of our favorite restaurants but after tonight, I doubt I'll give George anymore business.

Everything I had was incredible, starting with my raspberry limoncello martin, then the tomato basil soup (best EVER) with cheese tortellini, and then the main dish, chicken saltimbocca. Amazing. Will definitely be back when i’m in town!

the food was delicious. i loved the bread. but the waitress treated us noticeably different than other customers. we are in our early 20’s so i understand we may not seem the most mature or wealthy due to our age, but i don’t think that should affect service. she was much more friendly with the other customers, even providing more bread when she boxed up their food and just engaging in light conversation. when our food arrived, she didn’t ask if we wanted more bread and just took the basket away. and when she boxed up my food, i thought she might provide some with that, but she didn’t. i really enjoyed my meal and i hope that this experience is better for others. we aren’t loud or impolite so i think it was just our age that warranted her behavior.

Bustling place with big plates and standard Italian fare. Salmon was moist and tasty, eggplant crispy, crab cakes decent. Make a good cocktail. Was a nice meal.

Valentine’s Day weekend. Service was quick, and the food was delicious. The tomato basil soup was amazing, would recommend. I always get the Chicken and Prosciutto pasta, so I highly recommend that was well. Our server, Diana, was very fun and friendly. Great job from her!!

I had the cavatelli, my son had the bluecheese burger, and my friend had the rigatoni. All were excellent. The coffee was great. And the complimentary bread was good. It would have been better with a little marinara sauce. Service was a little slow, but it looked like they were a little understaffed. I have eaten their pizza in the past and I like it very much.
I'm going back next week to try the pizza margarita.
