The restaurant is very cozy and welcoming. I was looking for real homemade meatballs and I found them here.
Because I'm a petite person with a small appetite I ordered the meatballs and tiramisu to go.
The 4 large meatballs were excellent 👌 and the gravy delicious! Similar to what you'd find in Little Italy in NYC. The tiramisu lovely and flavourful.

The restaurant is so comfortable and inviting the minute that you walk through the door … the wait staff is incredible (our server was Alex), not only in knowledge of the menu, but in making sure that every part of your meal is exceptional. Highly recommend and we will be back .

This is the real deal! Authentic Italian, which we have been looking for. The depth of flavor in our entree's were amazing. Staff were quick, friendly, and efficient. We will definitely be back. I don't think I'll be able to do Olive Garden anymore as this was top notch and within the same price range.
