The food, service & ambience were all superb!!
5⭐️

Absolutely fantastic meal! We had seen the specialty pizza on social media this past Friday and I knew I needed to try it. The online reservation times for the next night were limited so we called and they were able to squeeze us in earlier on Saturday (so grateful!). Everything was amazing. The apps were top notch, fresh, and served in a timely manner. The roasted garlic for the bread - sooooo good. I don’t eat any sort of seafood and I had some of the calamari that was ordered...read full review

Food was ok- Wouldn’t go back though. Pasta was four bites and pizza was very soft in the middle. Pumpkin burrata dish was just undercooked slices of pumpkin with burrata on top (mostly inedible). I also noticed the manager talking down to her employees and micromanaging them. It was upsetting to see.
