Appetizers were very good (meatballs; mussels).

A little disappointed in the entrees. Stuffed calamari was a bit tough. Papadella/short rib dish not much taste.

Server very helpful and attentive.

Atmosphere consistent with similar venues

A little pricy for a BYOB.

Was my first time eating here for dinner with family after a flight. And got to say the food and dessert were amazing! The place was pretty quick to get a table just keep in mind because we had to wait they take a break around 4:00-5:00 PM so you will need to wait before getting a table. But overall I would recommend coming here for dinner with family or friends!

This is a destination restaurant. Number one choice on my Italian friend's recommendations list, and I can see why. Loved the Antipasto Siciliano appetizer assortment platter. We weren't sure what we were eating, but it was all delicious! I had the special pasta with sea urchin in a garlicky sauce. Happy to take some home for lunch tomorrow. The fresh pasta in everyone's dishes was amazing. Highly recommend the limoncello for dessert. It's great to share!
