LOVE this hidden gem! We found it because we met the owner's son while on vacation in Alaska and he told us about his family's restaurant. This place is fabulous! EXCELLENT food, lots of it, great atmosphere, We will be returning.

Wow, first disappointment ever there. Service was mediocre....and we were there early, the only table for about half an hour. Got my salad before my wine. Waitress did not come until after we were just about done with the meal to see how everything was. I very politely mentioned that my steak was quite overcooked and very dry. Mind you, I did not say it to get it free. But NO response.? Go back to better, Cafe Roma!

This place is a favorite of ours for many years when we lived nearby. Visiting again while in town after 3 years and didn’t skip a beat. Wish I would have talked to Frank (owner) earlier because he had 14 different tomatoes from his garden on menu this evening.

Excellent food for a business park area. Casual. Service was excellent, and the meal was reasonably priced. Very small location, and a little noisy, though.

2nd visit not as great as 1st - shrimp scampi was delightful; however, my eggplant parmigiana was too thick (and so they became grease sponges). Good flavor on breading and marinara but that cut was double what it should have been. Not sure we'll make the drive again. No, I didn't send it back as 3 others were dining (so I'd be watching them eat while my replacement dish was being prepared).

Really fantastic pizza, meatballs, and the golden beet salad was great and also great service! Really happy to find a good pizza locally. It’s been hard to do so!

I had such high hopes for this place, judging from the reviews.But it was ok. I asked the host for a booth, I noticed 2 booths were not reserved. He said every booth was reserved, ok, then how come there’s no menus on them?Alright, I got sat at a table. The lady was super sweet though, she was great. So I am looking over the menu and all of a sudden, they put menus on the booths. Ohhhhh looks like they were JUST NOW reserved, gotcha.Anyway, I got spaghetti, it needed seasonings badly, the sauce tasted like Ragu, the pasta was a bit al dente & I was not offered parmesan cheese. My friend stated their dish was very bland and the chicken was too dry. I like dry chicken so I wouldn’t have minded.Sadly I would not come back.

One of the best restaurants in the suburbs for Italian food. Our waitress provided great service and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend!
