We had the most fabulous dinner! Did not have a reservation and they made room four us. Had the stuffed artichoke, clams, salad, and 2 entrees. Everything was great! Can’t wait to go back soon. ☺️

We had 5 adults and split 3 appetizers/salads and 3 entres. More than enough food. Their eggplant appetizer is fabulous

Friends met for lunch before the wine walk. The atmosphere is quaint. The food was tasty. They made adjustments for a vegan guest. The wait staff was busy and yet attentive. I recommend going to this local establishment.

Really pleasant local Italian style restaurant. Reasonable prices, usually well prepared, but beware, they have a tendency to oversauce. pasta should have a sauce to accompany it, not swimming in it. But, with less sauce the food is consistently very good.

I'm Italian and have eaten a lot of Italian food. The food there was incredible. Everything from the bread, to the calamari, to the braciole. And the Merlot.
Excellent service. Attentive without being intrusive.
Sort of a nightclub atmosphere. U-shaped booths with leather upholstery. Lots of black and white photos of celebrities like Sinatra, Bogart, etc. in clubs hanging on the walls.
Wish I had taken photos - next time!

Best meal we’ve have in a long time! Everything from the service, meal, bussers, support staff, everything was awesome. Specifically our server Kelly. Nancy was also fantastic. You can tell everything in made in house and so amazing! The dessert topped it off. Will be back for sure!

I dined in last night since my last visit June 2023! This dinner was even better! I had 2 appetizers: the Melrose Peppers and Vesuvio Lambchops (both were DELICIOUS)! I was going to have their world famous Meatloaf, but the very cool gentleman in the table next to me got the last one -- LOL. (Oh well...great excuse to come back! Anyway, I actually I had it in my last visit!) So, I had the Grouper Franchese (my other favorite entree), which was also SPECTACULARLY DELICIOUS! For dessert, I had the chocolate cake! It was the size of Greenland and HEAVENLY DELICIOUS!!! The restaurant was very relaxing to be in that night and had some really good chill music playing overhead (unlike the obnoxiously loud club music at Lago in Lake Zurich--where I no longer dine at) and had 1 other (later, 2 other) tables of customers dining near me--Wednesday night is definitely a great night to dine here! My server, Kelly, did a fantastic job taking care of me-- she was very upbeat, personable, knowledgeable and efficient! I will definitely be back!

Amazing restaurant as I highly recommend if you love Italian food. Everything I’ve tried is so delicious. Desserts are delightful too. No complaints.
Fantastic Clams in white wine garlic sauce 👌 😋
