This is a great restaurant. It is consistently good everytime I go. It is very reasonably priced, even the wine. Great service and atmosphere. I'd highly recommend it.
Very nice place. A good alternative to seafood. Dishes were flavorful and portions were nice. I would go back next time I'm in the area.

Wow! My husband booked a table for our birthday whilst we were staying in the area.
Great atmosphere although it was very busy. Service was good but the food ...the food was outstanding! I think the best pasta dish I have ever had. The depth of flavor, the quality, the portion size....amazing!
The tiramisu.....just make room that's all I'll say!
This is a must visit place just make sure you book a table!

Pizza looked amazing. However it was burnt on the bottom. Maybe this is cooking preference not sure. It was still good.

A lot to be desired for the service for the price you pay but the food is very good. Try the cavatelli but maybe to go.

Pretty decent food for a small town. We were hard pressed to find vegan food around these parts that stay open reasonably late. Super tired of Thai food so of course, options are limited. My husband normally avoids cheese but on these kinds of trips he compromises and eats it. He actually loved his pizza. The fried artichoke salad was pretty good and the pasta with chunky sauce was quite flavorful. It’s nice I could get it without cheese. Server was nice and efficient.

This was some of the best italian food.I've had in a long time.. My wife had the shrimp scampi.I had the eggplant parm. It's definitely a recommendation.
Best meal we had all week!!! I was surprised we didn’t need a reservation to eat here. Our meals were amazing! We started with the Beet Napoleon. It consisted of slices of beets with layers of goat cheese topped with sweet balsamic onions and arugula. It was then cut into 4 pieces so it wouldn’t be messed up at the table. It was DELISH!!! I had the haddock special that consisted of a pan cooked piece of haddock over a bed of corn and zucchini chowder and crisp smashed potatoes and a garnish of arugula. The fish was cooked perfectly and the chowder had such flavor. I could have eaten a bowl of it! My wife had the chicken risotto which consisted of grilled chicken breast over a delicious bed of risotto topped with small tomatoes and a delicious sauce! Everything was amazing. Our server was excellent and was very attentive to my wife’s gluten allergy. I highly recommend this restaurant, and I know we will definitely be returning next time we are in Rockland! Keep up the great work!!

I took my daughter here the night before we were both running a half-marathon to carbo-load. First and foremost, the food was excellent and reasonably priced. It is simply great, traditional Italian food as good as any you would find in the North End. I had the baked penne which was perfectly prepared and arrived piping hot. For dessert we shared the chocolate cake which was almost like a lava cake with a runny chocolate core topped with ice cream. The service was also excellent - we never waited long for anything, and we were happy to get in and out of there reasonably quickly so we could get some needed rest.
I would also like to share what happened afterwards. My daughter discovered she had left her airpods in the restaurant - long after it had closed. We were dismayed to find out it would not open again until Tuesday - long after we would be making the 4-hour drive back to Boston. The next week I called to see if they had found them. They reported they had not, but would contact me if they did. To my surprise I received a call the next day from one of the staff reporting they had been found. At that point I made what I had to admit was an unusual request to ask if they might mail them to us at our home and I could repay them via venmo or something. They said they would have to ask the manager and would again get back to us. Shortly thereafter I received a call from the manager asking to confirm my name and address. He refused to accept any payment, and happily we received them within a few days. It is nice to know that it is not just a good restaurant but that it is run by good people. I will definitely be visiting again when I return to mid-coast Maine!

Would not recommend the staff has been rude and the food is ok. Definitely better spots in Rockland.
