Okay let me start off by saying if you want a real review this is as real is it going to get. Went in there today for high hopes. Been wanting to try here for a while everything looked good on line. So we ordered our lunch . I ordered the beef marsala and my husband ordered the chicken rollatini we were asked do you want a soup or salad, I said I'd do the soup and my husband said he'd do the salad assuming it came with the meal because she didn't specify that it didn't after asking us. Not realizing after getting our bill that they charged us for it. Definitely didn't want a super salad but it made it sound like it came with the meal. Secondly , I ordered a side of meatballs because I wanted to try them and that's what I really really got disappointed!!!! these meatballs are frozen meatballs, I could not have been more upset about this. The bread came out the bread was delicious. The soup was actually pretty good as well, The salad came out with no dressing nothing on it for that price I don't even know. My beef marsala came out The beef was ok . But I don't know about Marsala sauce this was basically beef broth and maybe a half 1/2 of a cup boxed fusilli def not a Marsala . My husband's Chicken rollatini was basically broth as well and maybe one small slice of half of prosciutto. We kept hearing the microwave open and shutting the entire time we were there assuming that all of our meals were microwaved. And with the deception of having his order of super salad and get charged for it after making it sound like it came with the meal is very very dishonest. It's unfortunate because I definitely would have loved an amazing place in the area. If I want microwaved food I'll go to the local store and get it myself.. so disappointed. How about getting charged for our salads when she made it seemed like it came with the meal we go out offen this response was excuses the food was not good at all. And they are frozen meatballs my husband's eats them and he knows the brand lol

Would not recommend this place service is terrible they close at 8 arrived at 6:40 there were bunch of tables available and was told sorry we’re not taking anymore people. There was plenty of open tables and time left to order and got denied at the door. So good luck with this place it’s clear they pick and choose who eats here

Me and my girlfriend went today to celebrate our anniversary. It was our first time there. The atmosphere was very cozy, like having dinner at grandma's. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was great. Definitely plan to try and make it a monthly visit whenever possible.

The complimentary bread came with a couple of complimentary arancini balls in meat sauce. Sauce was awesome with rib meat in it.... added that to my chicken parm order, for on the pasta (+$2). The chicken wasn't completely hot, but not cold (I did mention it to the waitress). Had the tiramisu to finish, which was excellent and creamy! (Apologies forgetting the photo until after it was attacked!) SURPRISE - They comp'd the dessert due to the not-hot chicken! They didn't have to, but that was very nice seeing as I hadn't complained, just gave a heads-up.
Beautiful Evening !
Bobby~Robert Dagostino The dinner was superb. Your restaurant’s atmosphere is profoundly nostalgic, evoking memories of family& friends across generations. The numerous memorabilia on display are truly wonderful . Your establishment masterfully replicates the comforts of home, mirroring the warmth and hospitality of dining in one’s own house . The entire dining experience is impressive simply delicious! Our favorite part of our dinner is when you pull up a chair and shared a cordial with us reminisced about all the old times. Such a beautiful blessing. ..We love you ♥️♥️♥️♥️

If you're looking for an authentic taste of Italy, look no further than this charming little restaurant that feels like a warm embrace from the past. From the moment you step inside, you're transported to a cozy, rustic setting that exudes the charm of old-world Italy. The decor is delightful, with vintage touches that spark nostalgia and immediately set the tone for a memorable dining experience.
The atmosphere is wonderfully inviting, filled with the soft glow and the gentle hum of conversation, making it a perfect spot for both intimate dinners and lively gatherings. The staff here are truly exceptional they greet you with genuine smiles and a warmth that makes you feel like part of the family. Kaily, our server, was the epitome of hospitality attentive, knowledgeable, and always ready with a recommendation that never disappoints.
Now, let’s talk about the food! Each dish is a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and crafted with love. From the homemade pasta to the rich, savory sauces, you can taste the tradition and care that goes into every meal. The menu offers a delightful variety, ensuring there's something for everyone to savor.
Overall, this little gem encapsulates the essence of what dining should be a celebration of good food, great company, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I can’t wait to return and relive the enchanting experience all over again!
