We had Togo the other night. The food was fabulous. It was the best Chicken Marsala I’ve ever had. We all enjoyed everything very much and will be back to dine in. Not to mention the wonderful owners who give back to the community and great staff. Overall a fantastic restaurant.
Most generous, and talented, chef in the business. Love everything about this restaurant - food is top notch, experience is always delightful, and Amy and Anthony are just the best neighbors on the planet, so visiting this restaurant feels like sitting down to a family meal. 5 stars, wonderful
We went there for the first time on Saturday night and it was SO good. We started off with their appetizer special which was a ravioli, but in a puff pastry, with the most delicious handmade marinara. My partner had the sausage with peppers and gnocchi and I had the carbonara. Both were exceptional. We finished with their cantaloupe and basil gelato. Everything was SO good and the service was impeccable. We will definitely be back!
