1 word, delicious! The food was incredible! Pear arugula salad, carpaccio, bread, main dishes, dessert, all awesome. Get a reservation. Park out back. BYOB...which is great.
Great service and specials. Loud but expected. It was full on a Saturday at 6:30.
The eggplant is awesome. Thin layers that u know take time. Veal special was awesome. So was the branzino and gnocchi dish. Definitely go. Expect to spend a few $ but it's worth it.

My boyfriend and I came here last night seeking an intimate vibe and good food. The restaurant was nicely decorated, clean, and had an ambiance. My boyfriend's one complaint about the atmosphere was that the tables are very close together, but this didn't bother me. The service was very good, there were only two servers with all of the tables full and they did a great job being attentive. Now onto the food, starting with the breadsticks. They were fresh, soft, and had garlic flavoring. We ordered the famous meatballs as an appetizer. The meatballs were alright, nothing to rave about but what did get us was the marinara sauce they were served in. The sauce was fantastic, we asked the servers to bring us a small dish of it to dip our breadsticks in which was a great combo. Onto the entrees: I got the branzino special (mild white fish in a white wine sauce with sauteed spinach topped with capers), and my boyfriend got the salmon (seared salmon in a dijon mustard sauce with mashed potatoes and vegetables). My fish was very nicely done, the presentation was as good as the flavor. If you love flaky white fish this one is quite flavorful, the sauce was delicious, the sauteed spinach cooked perfectly, and the capers were bursting with flavor and complimented the whole dish well. My boyfriend really liked his salmon and I tried a bite. The fish tasted good and the dijon mustard sauce was nothing like anything we've had before. It unexpectedly complimented the fish nicely. He said the mashed potatoes were a little above average. Now onto the desserts: the cannolis were top tier, it was my boyfriend's first time having cannolis and he described them as life changing. They were very fresh, creamy, and flavorful. We also got the chocolate hazelnut cake. This one was good, but we ate the cannolis before trying it which already stole our hearts. In the end, our bill before tip was $127. We agreed this wasn't a bad price considering we got an appetizer, two fish entrees and two desserts. We left here feeling full, satisfied, and not guilty about the money we spent because it was all worth it. Not to mention, we really enjoyed the bring your own wine aspect. I would come here again.

We made reservations for 6. Had soup at 6:10, dinner at 6:15 and the check at 6:30. Not relaxing or romantic, just felt pushed out by the blond lady. The food is delicious, but I have never felt more pushed out by a restaurant. Wont be returning.

This was the first time here and had good expectations based on all of these 5 star reviews. We specifically went for the “homemade” gnocchi because that’s what my daughter wanted for her birthday. What a huge disappointment. I can not figure out why they have so many good reviews - the food was fair, at best. Appetizers were terrible - frozen mussels, frozen calamari, and we ordered their “homemade” meatballs because we were told they were the best! They were not homemade and they were not the best.
As someone who grew up in an Italian household and has made pasta, raviolis, gnocchi, meatballs, and sauce - I can safely assure you the meatballs and gnocchi were not homemade. Our waitress was nice enough but not so much that we can overlook the so-so meal, and for about $50/person (with tip), we won’t be back. My suggestion is to spend your money elsewhere.
