I'm looking for a good Italian together with some friends and this restaurant was incredibly great and had an enjoyable experience. Food was so good, made to perfection and the staff were so professional; attentive and accommodating - from the drink choices to the food selection everything was delicious! I'm so impressed with one of their staff; he really took the time to check everyone was happy! I'll return for sure.

Besides the decor and atmosphere making you feel like you are in a small Italian village, the food is absolutely amazing! Everything we have tried here is memorable to the point where we just have to return again. And we have never been disappointed. Love this restaurant!

Great pre-fixe menu. Service is split between the other more casual location, but it was good overall. Food made up for any potential lapse in service. Looking forward to trying other dishes on the menu.

Went there this past Mother's day. It was a busy rainy day. The food did take a little bit of time however, the staff did the best they could to make the day pleasant. However, there was a family that was there that made nasty remarks constantly because of their wait time for their dinner. This made all of us very uncomfortable. I felt if they were that unhappy, they should have left. When our food arrived, it was fresh and delicious. I will be back there for sure. Maybe patience is needed but worth the wait!

They may be okay for takeout pizza, but their eat-in restaurant is a disaster. After more than an hour wait, we complained, and they said the kitchen was backed up. However, a look around the restaurant revealed nobody had been served food since we arrived. It was if no one was working in the kitchen. They couldn't even be bothered bringing us more bread. After an hour and half, we said we'd have to leave if our food didn't come soon. About 10 minutes later our meals were brought out by the clearly annoyed waitstaff. After that, they did come around with water pitchers in an effort to salvage their tip, but we just wanted to eat and get out. The worst restaurant experience I've had in years.

Made reservations on Friday for the next day (Saturday), for 13 adults, for my wife's birthday celebration. We never had the opportunity to dine here but the reviews were pretty good. Restaurant is very small but atmosphere is very nice and cozy. Staff was very pleasant and working hard. Food was delicious and all of our guests enjoyed their meals. Gave a three star rating due to the fact that it took just over three hours to complete our dining experience. Apparently the chef has one helper and if he has a delivery to make, the helper steps out to make the deliveries. Three hours is an unacceptable amount of time for dinner! We made the reservations in advance for a reason. Only wish the restaurant did their part and brought in the sufficient staff to accommodate the workload.

We went there on a whim and were extremely happy Yes the best pace was very empty But as for the decor and the food-- can't say enough Not a complaint at our table of six We don't like being rushed at all and the pace was perfect Yes parking sucks but worth the quest to find a spot for a dinner that will leave you feel big full and happy This is from a fat guy trapped in a skinny guys body

The ambiance is perfect for friends or for a date. The food is made to order and it shows. Every entree includes a pasta or a salad. I highly recommend you try it!

It was my first time there & I absolutely loved it!! Atmosphere was like sitting in a Italian courtyard!! It's a BYOB. Food is excellent!! Perfect setting for a romantic dinner. It's true it does take awhile to get your food but I loved that! Expect to be there for at least 2 hours. Service was excellent!!
