Food and atmosphere was great, front staff was great, food service was good, but our waiter was not the greatest , it felt like he didn’t want to be here, he came and just brought us water didn’t even ask if we wanted any drinks, He never came to give us refills on our drinks, other than our lazy waiter it was great and yes it was the waiter that didn’t care about his job or he was having an off day because the other waiters and waitress at other table that I could see were great. But like I said the food and atmosphere was great, will come again …

The restaurant was really nice. We had to change our reservation and they communicated well with us. The food was good and the pricing was actually not bad for a more upscale vibe. Meatballs were really good for an app and the steak/beet salad was really good too. Filling. Cheesecake passible but the tiramisu was good! I found the chicken linguini to be slightly oily. It was far too loud in the restaurant. We were having to shout at the table. We were in a booth. Hard to hear eachother. The parking is also difficult as they share it with a few other businesses. You do not want to run late as you have to wait for a spot. Otherwise great, would try to come for lunch (if they do lunch) as even a weekday evening was too loud.

I really like the atmosphere here but the food and service is quite average. Tried the fettucine, Pizza, appetizers and all were decent, but that's not my expectation coming here. However, the cocktail selection is very commendable.
In my opinion, it doesn't compete with the very best Italian spots in the city but worth a visit.

I already was asked to put a review in. The food is good and the staff friendly and accommodating

Great food, pricey, but worth it. Staff was great.

We came here to celebrate my daughter’s birthday, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing: service was very slow, we waited a long time for our food, and when it finally arrived, it was cold.

We ate lunch at this restaurant a week ago and we noticed a change from our last visit. After being seated we waited 15 minutes for anyone to acknowledge us. When the server finally came over, she asked if we needed more minutes. We ordered and it was another 15 minutes before the food came. The server brought our food and was carrying my salad up on her forearm which slid up her arm and her breast fell into my salad. I was still served the Caesar salad. I have eaten this salad many times before and noticed there was only one quarter section of egg. Normally there are two. The other patron ordered the steak and beet salad which was lacking in all ingredients including only three small pieces of steak and two cherry tomatoes. We have ordered the bread here before and found the serving size on this visit to be greatly diminished. My pasta dish was fine, just not enough pasta. Overall the food and service was not adequate on this visit.

My first experience was pleasant, id say 2 or 3 years ago, my friends and I sat in the lounge, wasn't too busy, was intimate, warm and welcoming, staff was very friendly. However this visit did not share the same feeling; I made a reservation and got in a little early, but before I was sat, the hostess was bickering with an expo or server, I stood there for a very long and awkward time, finally sat, and here he comes, the very nice and soft spoken man asking us for our drink order, maybe a little too soft spoken, there it is, the music. Upbeat Sabrina Carpenter esc blaring from every speaker this restaurant has, I had to get him to repeat himself every time he spoke to us. Water it is. The cheapest drink was 15 dollars, and I couldn't help but notice a server, making his rounds like a prison guard, giving me a death stare every single time he crossed our table, let's try to ignore him, at least OUR servers nice. What do you know he's serving us, if our first server was hard to hear you should've gotten a load of this guy, mumbling through his greetings, hovering over the table, it was so hard to make eye contact with this gentleman. So there I was, eyes glued to the menu, wait wasn't bad, mussels were quite good, shrimp pasta was passable and the pesto gnocchi was incredible, prices are a little unjustified, service was okay, don't think ill ever come back, not from the neighborhood so the drive is NOT worth it... TLDR : overpriced olive garden 😙

I had a really good experience here. The waiter was great, she provided recommendations, she was quick and bubbly. The food was delicious, I had never had homemade pasta and I was super impressed. The portion sizes were great and the prices were pretty decent. If your looking for itialian I defiantly recommend you try here.

I ordered food from here and it was pretty terrible, I’m from down south and I eat Italian food pretty regularly. I also ordered garlic bread but instead of getting actual bread I got a rock hard piece of pizza resembling a cracker 😂
My two cents
DONT EVER EAT HERE
