Food was delicious and service was excellent and friendly. I attended a birthday party at the restaurant and the chef came out to our table to ask if we were enjoying the food. I highly recommend.

Parking: Parking available on the side and in back of the building.

I love the classic decore of an old vintage restaurant. Place was not very busy, so the weight staff was excellent. I don’t understand how this is 4.3 stars. Definitely deserves better. I got the eggplant Parmesan and it blew me out of the water. Absolutely the best eggplant Parmesan I’ve ever had. I’m not even an Italian food guy, but I’m definitely coming back to visit my sister for this joint. Highly recommend this place very good. Oh, and I forgot to mention the great bread.

We were a party of five. The waiter was standing on my left taking our order. It was my turn to order but before I had a chance to turn my head towards him he tapped on my left shoulder. Like two or three taps to get my attention. That’s never happened to me in a restaurant by a waiter. I just didn’t like that. That was rude. But the food was great. We’ve been here several times already and loved everything. But last night I got the special: Linguini with clams mussels and shrimp. The seasoning was spot on and the pasta was cooked perfectly. But the mussels were sooo tiny. The shell size was fine but the meat inside were almost nonexistent to maybe half and inch. The clams were good. The shrimps were small and overcooked. Several appetizers we ordered were all delicious.

Dinner for 4 on a Friday night, so perfect. We had a corner round table, which I really love and such delicious food. Started with a mango salad with goat cheese, and a mozzarella tomato and red pepper app. The service was friendly and professional. Many nice dinner specials were offered. Our dinners were great and a plentiful amount for the price. Dessert was also so nice, and many to choose from.

This was one of our go-to places for years, and we are back!

We were all very happy with our food, the last table out, and we didn't feel rushed. Thank you!

Wednesday night May 29th, 2004. We were the only ones in there the entire time, and to no surprise, Benny has an attitude. He needs to chill. Not a pleasant experience. Ehh

Recently went for dinner. My veal was tough, soup very thin and the carpet is filthy. It needs to be redone. I would not go back or recommend. There are much better byo restaurants around.

Food is made to order. Good recipes and imported tomatoes. A little on the pricey side but justified by the quality. I will return.
