Good Italian food with great service and ambiance. We loved all the entres that we ordered. I also liked the entrance with flower decorations as it gives a welcoming feeling as we enter the place. I recommend this restaurant for good dining experience.

Outstanding gem hiding in the Muddy Branch shopping center. Have visited several times and the service and food are top notch! They serve authentic Italian meals at affordable prices.

The staff and the ambiance were great but the food was terrible. The spaghetti carbonara was dry, with thick blocks of onions and the bacon in it had a bitter aftertaste. The pizza was okay— definitely not worth the price you pay. We could not even finish the food and ended up leaving the most, it was a disheartening experience.
I’d also have let this pass and not left a review, but I returned to check their reviews again to notice those rating low have had similar experience to mine. Leaving this review because I felt sick the next day, and food was definitely to blame because it was bad ingredients.
The best food ever

A little on the expensive side since meals are ala carte. Drink suggestion from water was right on. Good service.

We came on a recommendation from someone who used to live in this area. While the chicken marsala was good, it came with a strange, bland small plate of spaghetti and red sauce. The sauce had no taste. I took off the plain noodles to eat with the marsala. We should have been offered plain noodles to go with the chicken dish. The bread was also served cold- only way to get warm bread is to order the garlic bread which wasn't that great. My friend had the chicken doratti and he now has a stomach ache. My son had the grilled salmon- it was served with a side of that awful spaghetti and red sauce which he did not eat. Having a side of roasted veggies would have been better. We also thought the prices were a high for the quality/quantity and you could go to other italian restaurants and get more bang for your buck!

Solid food, on the expensive side but a nice upscale atmosphere. It was a member of our party's birthday so they brought out a free tiramisu, which was very nice.

We were initially pleased with our experience at your establishment today, but unfortunately, it took a turn for the worse. The cappuccinos we ordered after finishing our meal didn't meet our expectations, which we politely communicated to the waiter. The issue seemed resolved when the waiter removed the drinks from the bill.
However, when the manager (a gentleman with a green shirt and glasses) approached our table to ask about our experience, things escalated. After my wife shared her feedback about the cappuccinos, the manager became defensive and argumentative, claiming that no one had ever complained about the coffee in 30 years. (Did this guy just come to our table to tell us that he knew better than us)The conversation quickly turned heated, with me joining the argument and the manager and me raising our voices.
What was initially a minor issue turned into a major problem, ruining our overall experience. We're disappointed that a supervisor/manager didn't handle the situation more professionally. It's clear that this individual would benefit from customer service training.
As a result, we're unlikely to return, and we'll be sharing our negative experience with friends and family, potentially losing you five local clients. We hope you'll take our feedback seriously and address the issues we've raised.
had a great experience the server was extremely nice and the food was delicious.
