Ribeye was quite good, in addition to the soup.

Server was nice enough but not trained. Beers were flat and I couldn’t drink mine after two sips. We ordered sea food that was not fresh so we did not eat it after tasting it from fear of food poisoning. Prices are a rip off for the kind of food and drinks they serve ($50 per person). The worst is the place itself: it is musty and dusty. I could not breath well the first 30 min I was there. 5 star Google reviews and number of stars overall guided me to that place but I’m not going back there ever again. If locals want to keep this a secret gem, fine by me.

Wonderful atmosphere and the our food was prepared by a real chef, something we have been unable to find of late.Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, checking often to insure a pleasant dining experience.It is pricey but worth it. We will be back.

Room was dark, calimari was tough, (like chewing on old rubberbands). We ordered a bottle of wine. The cork fell apart in the process of opening the bottle and the wine itself was breaking down, as if it hadnt been stored properly since 2007.( that was the year on the bottle). Paid $36 for a $15 bottle of house wine that we barely drank half of. Mentioned to the waiter that it was bad and got an apology but still had to pay for the full bottle. Been wanting to try this restaurant for quite some time. It was dissapointing and will be quite some time before we go back, if everParking: It was decent, fairly well lit

Service was good, calamari was like chewing on old rubberbands, paid too much money for an old crappy bottle of house wine from 2007 that obviously hadnt been stored correctly. ( the corked fell apart as it was opened and parts of the cork were floating in it.) When you set the glass down it separated into water, juice and sediment. We've been trying to find time in our busy schedules to give this restaurant a try. It will be a long time before we go back and spend $170 for two people on an "ok" meal

This is a hidden gem. Cozy little restaurant off the beaten path. We all had something different and it all was amazing. And us Italians in the group who can be a bit picky on sauce, Italian approved!

Food is really good, but to make this restaurant better, some redecorating needs to happen, such as getting rid of the mirrors.I agree this place smells musty and the Carpet is probably responsible and needs to go.

Kinda stuffy atmosphere with many dolls and various wall hangings that look like they'd be impossible to keep dust free. Also quite pricey ~25/person. That said, the food was great, I mean really tasty! Service was friendly too. We will be back but probably for special occasions instead of casual nights out.

This place is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. Easily the worst restaurant I’ve ever been to. Right when you walk in it smells musty. The food was bad and we ate maybe 10% of it, so we sent it back. The server immediately got an attitude and ran into the back screaming profanities about me and my wife. Then he brought the bill back and our bill went from 108.00 to 105.00$. When I mentioned this the server became irate and ran to the back, screaming more profanity along the way about how I was “broke”. When I confronted him about his rude behavior he just kept asking “did you pay? Did you pay? Then leave and don’t come back”. Bro, you couldn’t PAY me to come back. Trashy staff and trashy location, spend your hard earned money somewhere else.

Was there for my sister's dinner rehearsal and the staff did an amazing job with keeping up with the tables and keeping the drinks full . Food was amazing and servers did an amazing job so friendly. Kept making sure we were OK and seeing if we needed anything. Great food great environment great place in general. I look forward to coming back.

Love the ambiance and the food is great. Our server took good care of us, as always. Lobster ravioli is my favorite.

My husband and I were there last Friday-the food was great and the owner and staff amazing. This is a hidden GEM a little out of the way part of the charm. Stop in and try them or if you haven’t been in awhile go back. Thanks for a great night the oysters rock were phenomenal and the tiramisu oh wow!!

Building and decor are a bit outdated and we were skeptical at first. But the food and service were outstanding! We will definitely be back.

Michael Becker

Oh my god the best chicken Marsala and filet ever. The place isn’t much to look at and has a hint of that grandma smell but some of the best food we’ve ever had. Would go back again and again DONT Hesitate!
