Food here is always good. Something seems to have changed with their blueberry pie though. Used to be spectacular. Wondering if they changed the recipe or the pastry Chef. Just not quite the same.There also seems to be hard rock music playing in the bar area. Not really conducive to a fine restaurant ambiance, but not a deal breaker.

Many people have the same "terrible" reviews for the owner and (I think it's his sister) sidekick. The service overall was slow........seems waiters didn't show up and owner had to serve tables. Now I see why no one shows up to work for this duo...... Had to send back the ricotta cheesecake - due to being VERY DRY! Woman (bartender) owners sister - shows up rudely to the table arguing to all of us that it is "fresh" and it is supposed to be served that way! UGH! I have never had old, and dried out cheesecake. She was very condescending to our table and big attitude! BYE BYE!! Other people seem to have the same rudeness at this restaurant. See the reviews below!! Our friends agree, and we will all take our business elsewhere. They will surely lose out!!

My daughter and grandson came to visit, they wanted Italian. We found the place to be very nice, great attentive wait staff. I had the Lasagna, my grandson the Wahu Burger and my daughter had the Tagliatelle Cacio E Pepe. The meals were excellent and very "healthy" drinks.

We just finished our dinner and I have never experienced such rude and disrespectful attitudes. The owner’s daughter did not seat us early even though our table was open. We offered to go to the bar but she aggressively told us no. When we finally got the bill they charged us for 2 wines.. we had one. No apologies but she told us she didn’t care if we ever came., which we will not. I do not recommend stepping foot in this restaurant!!!

I rated 1-star because I could not rate Zero and still leave a review.DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT!I have never left a review of any kind but owing to my experience this past Saturday evening was obliged to post this scathing review. I have eaten at this restaurant before and have always found it average (at best), but it was my mothers birthday and could not find another option when my party size increased at the last moment so decided to give it another chance.There is a reason there were reservations available for a party of 10 just 2 days before. The bartender (whom I later learned was also the ‘manager’) was the most aggressive and rudest person I have ever encountered in a service role. She yelled at multiple members of our party within 15 minutes of arrival while we were waiting for our table, and when I tried to diffuse the situation she jumped at me and threatened me that she would ‘take care of things’.As I walked away, the bartender ran around into the restaurant and continued to scream and wave her arms around while breading my wife and sister. When confronted, the owner sided with the bartender and refused to acknowledge our request to watch the camera footage and provide appropriate response.The rest of the negative reviews on Google are certainly valid based on my experience, and as local resident I would strongly advise anyone against wasting their time and money at such a below-average and hostile establishment.

Went for dinner Saturday night, never happened. Bartender who is also the manager was aggressive, rude and unprofessional. Just an unkind, angry person. Argued with many members of my family over a reserved spot at the bar. When asked to speak to the owner, he told me he didn't see what happened so he would just have to side with the manager. Didn't take anything I had to say into consideration. Was very disappointed in the way we were treated. Won't be coming here again and I am telling everyone to stay away!!!

We are new to the area and wanted to try this restaurant. VERY IMPRESSED!!! Food was outstanding, as well as the service. The ambiance was so relaxing and quiet and we are definitely happy that we have found our new Italian restaurant.

Everything tonight was excellent at the corner of the quaint quiet area of the bar where we saw some friends. We started off with the artichoke appetizer special which was delicious. For our entrees, we had the filet mignon with mushrooms and prosciutto wrapped asparagus cooked perfectly. We also had the taglione pasta with shaved truffle butter sauce. The chef sent out a nice little octopus surprise with truffle Mayo on lettuce leaf that was also great. Finally we shared the strawberries in zabligione a nice way end the dinner with our espresso and cappuccino. Thank you very much Chef Guiseppe for a great Sunday dinner at the bar. We shall be returning soon.
Delicious Italian food. Our group of 4 tried various cocktails and wines and everyone was delish. Our apps and entrees were equally delicious. My linguini and clams was flavorful and plenty. The clams on the half shell was very fresh and the fried shrimps in panko bread crumbs was very very good. I suggest you give this great find a try. It's one of the better places we've been to in a while abs we eat out often. Enjoy.

Great food, fantastic drinks!!! Great people..My happy place for sure..
Worst experience EVER!! Do not waste your money! The man at the front desk was snooty because we didn't have a reservation. The waiter was extremely rude and rolled his eyes that we had a 9 year old with us. Like he was mad he got stuck with the table with a kid. He was very disrespectful and impersonable. My husbands steak was raw in the middle so we sent it back. The waiter was unapologetic about this and when he brought it back, it was overcooked and hard as a rock. When he cleared our plates and asked how everything was, we said it was terrible and he didn't care. He said nothing but cleared our plates. No apology, no offer to make it right, no let me get my manager, nothing. He did not even ask us if we wanted coffee or dessert, he just brought our bill. When we left, we again met with the man at the front station and he also asked "how was everything?" My husband explained our awful experience and he actually said " I don't believe you." That is just plain wrong. First rule of business is the customer is always right. Especially in a service industry. I could not believe my ears that he actually said that to us. We will 100% NEVER go back to this restaurant. I do not recommend.
