The food is fantastic! The ravioli and ve and the sauce are great. The mussels are always fresh and done just right. Don't forget the garlic bread, it is made with big pieces of real garlic and nice and crusty!!

My cousin took me out here for my birthday and we didn't have a reservation, but I bet their back room is nice. I was seated quickly and service was prompt. I thought about getting the aglio e olio with a side of sausage, but ended up getting the broccoli rabe and sausage pasta~it seemed a little water logged to me, but my cousin says broccoli rabe has a lot of moisture. His penne vodka looked great.

Consistently great food. Owner is warm and welcoming. Always checks in with customers to ensure his high standards of quality food preparation have been met. Huge portions. Best Italian Wedding Soup ever! Especially crowded on Saturdays, but quaint and comfortable atmosphere. Has a liquor license. You'll be glad you went.
