Worst meal ever!!! There unworthy to say they are an Italian restaurant.
I went to this place for our dinner for my husbands birthday.I thought we were going to have a great time but no.We walked and and first off the bat it was so crowded,we had to wait 30-45 minutes just to get a table for 2.Then we finally sat down and it took 15 to just order our drinks.Then we ordered food and the food took an hour for it to be served.My husband got the meatballs with spaghetti and there was a THERE WAS AN BUG!!This sent me off the walls, this was not acceptable especially on my husband’s birthday.! I then went to try my food and it I got the pizza. The pizza was rock hard and very cold, I Hurd my daughter talking about how the cheese was always so cheesy but it was rock hard!! I paid 78$ for this trash, I would not even have my worst enemy eat this.I would never come back to this dump and I would just go to Olive Garden, this was very very disappointing
I ordered the shrimp and scallops fra diavolo. I went based on the food reviews. I am disappointed, 3 shrimp 3 very small scallops, with sauce had little to no spice or taste smh.

The food was incredibly disappointing and lacked flavor across the board. We ordered the spinach manicotti in alfredo sauce with chicken, the seafood platter with white sauce, fried calamari, and the fagioli bianchi. The only dish worth mentioning in a positive light was the calamari.
The seafood platter was a disaster. The linguine was overcooked and mushy, and it was “loaded” with closed mussels, two clams, two shrimp, and a single scallop. The so-called white sauce tasted like an afterthought, completely flat and uninspired. The fagioli bianchi was equally unimpressive, resembling canned beans simmered with some diced onions until translucent. And the manicotti with alfredo sauce was bland beyond belief, with the chicken offering no help in saving the dish. A dash of salt and pepper would have done wonders if anyone in the kitchen knew how to use them.
We ordered takeout, so I can’t comment on service or atmosphere—though the restaurant itself looks nice enough from the outside. Unfortunately, the food was such a letdown that it didn’t matter. My wife and I ended up fixing the fagioli bianchi and seafood platter ourselves just to make them edible. Honestly, I’ve had better Italian food at Italian McDonalds aka Olive Garden. If I hadn’t been pressed for time, I could have made a far better meal at home.
I will never order from this place again, and I do not recommend it to anyone.

Alex is an excellent server to compliment the excellent food. We have dined close to a dozen times and have never been disappointed with any of ours or appetizers. Highly recommend for the best Italian Restaurant in Hagerstown and surrounding areas.
I would have given them six stars, but there's only five. This place is amazing. I had the veal parmesan with some of the most incredible flavors that I've had in a long time. This meal was obviously cooked with care, and the vegetables were fresh and perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned. I'm sure I'll be coming back.

Incredible food at an affordable price! We stopped in after a 5 hour drive and were met with the most hospitable service, great food, and relaxing atmosphere. Can’t wait for our next trip home so we can stop here again!

Don't let the outside or location fool you. In fact, it's with the drive. Business, casual, a night out or a classy date, they make you feel at home regardless. Very attentive and professional staff and quality dishes with perfect portions. Highly recommend!!!

Luis and his staff have a wonderful, friendly Italian place. White pizza is one of our must haves whenever we go. Tonight, I tried the special short rib ravioli, which was delicious and plentiful. I'm looking forward to lunch leftovers tomorrow. Others had chicken caciatori, Capalini pomadoro, and ribeye. All great choices. Can't wait to return.

The glowing reviews are absolutely accurate. Simple decor featuring pieces by local artisans available for purchase, along with a welcoming atmosphere with vintage Italian music along with some very friendly locals and pleasant, knowledgeable waitstaff. The Chilean sea bass and Capellini pomodoro were absolutely perfect. Truly the best fish I've ever had.
They offer an extensive, varied, authentic and fresh menu along with delightful wines and cocktails. As another reviewer said, I would give this restaurant 10 stars. Fantastic! I only wish I lived closer!
