We have been eating here since they first opened their doors, literally. The food and service have always been great. However, our takeout experience on November 14, 2025, was horrible. We ordered two Pasta Frescas, one Pasta del Estate with shrimp, and one Chicken Cacciatore. The portion size of the two Pasta Frescas was embarrassingly small (see photos - I apologize for the messy desk). When I opened the containers and saw the portion size, I called the restaurant to inquire. The young lady who answered the phone was incredibly rude, defensive, and disrespectful. She told me that they now have larger to-go containers, so it just appears that the portion sizes are smaller. In addition, she also stated that the portion sizes are pre-measured. I told her that I have been ordering the Pasta Fresca since the restaurant opened, and this is the smallest portion size I have ever received, regardless of the size of the to-go container. I was very nice to her, despite her rudeness. After about two minutes into the call she said to me, "...we're very busy, and I don't have all day to spend on the phone with you." I then asked if I could speak with a manager, and she said, "...that's not necessary..." I then requested to speak with Armando, then she put me on hold, came back on the phone, and said that I could not speak with Armando, and that the owner would be calling me. It is now December 20, 2025, and I have yet to hear from the owner, or any other representative of the restaurant, for that matter. The Pasta Fresca is priced at $15.95. A pound of dry pasta can be purchased for $1.00. These portions contained about 1/4 pound of pasta. In addition, the vegetables in these dishes barely cost $1.50 each. The margins on these portions is obscene. The least they could do is add a little more pasta, which is dirt cheap. I understand and appreciate that restaurants, like every business, exist to make money. However, restaurants only make money when they have customers. When customers are happy, they keep coming back and spending money. When they get treated like yesterday’s trash, they don’t come back. It is disgusting that any customer should be treated this way. That being said, after eating here since the doors opened, we will not be coming back, and this is so incredibly disappointing and sad. I was so hopeful that the restaurant would have made this right with me, but they failed to do so.
Decent Italian food if you don’t feel like making it yourself. A bit expensive, but solid.
The only place to order Italiano food from💚🤍❤️

The lasagna was amazing. As well as the tiramisu. They gave me a side salad which left much to be desired. For the prices that you pay it could’ve been better. It was just lettuce with a few vegetables on top. The dressing was good, but there was not enough of it.

What a great experience!
Haven’t been there in a few years (since before COVID) but will definitely return after such a wonderful meal.
The shrimp scampi was what drew me there and it exceeded expectations.
Rest of table enjoyed Pasta Pollo Pepperone and the Chicken Francese.
All the food was delicious. Came out fresh, hot and well prepared. Our server, Erika, was beyond awesome!

This was my first time coming to this restaurant although I’ve driven by at 1 million times a coworker and I met here and we were not disappointed. The food was fantastic. The service was great as well. I ended up trying the salmon di mare. It was flavorful, and the portion size was amazing as well. The hot chocolate was good too would recommend and will be returning.

My favorite Minestrone Soup ever
I cant believe I have lived here for 15 years and never been to this establishment. Food and service were excellent. Its a very cozy spot for a date. The only drawback would be space is difficult for parties large than 6. We will definitely be back soon.

This restaurant was recommended by locals. The food was delicious. The minestrone soup was not the typical soup I was expecting, It was so much better. It had such a great flavor. The service was also good.
