Very good food and atmosphere. Definitely suggest making reservations. Chicken French is best

Seating was terrible. Packed in like sardines. Had reservations for 7 people. Put us next to door to outer section. Wait staff kept walking by and because they squeezed us in, kept bumping into us. Carrying dishes close to our backs. Also the acoustics are nonexistent. Couldn't carry on a conversation with the person sitting across from You. Too loud not an enjoyable experience at all. Food was good. But that's not enough for me to go back there.

Very busy and unable to have a conversation at our table too loud and too many tables not enough room. Service was very slow we waited over an hour for our entrees. Waitress kept apologizing. The steak was tough mostly bone and hard fat couldn’t eat it. It was our anniversary dinner out and it was disappointing.

Limoncello has been on my list to try for a while. I was finally in the area and am really glad I went! The restaurant is huge inside, with mutiple rooms and sections. We went on a quiet Wednesday night and were seated in a patio type room. Our server Carolyn was friendly and accommodating. The drink list is extensive, with numerous cocktails, beer, wine, and non alcoholic choices. I had a paloma and my husband and I started with the artichoke french (tasty). For dinner, he got the gnocchi with vodka sauce and peas and I got the Portobello pappardelle. They both came with a small salad, and we got the limoncello dressing at Carolyn's suggestion. The meal was great, I had enough leftover for lunch the next day, and I'd order all of it again. I'm not in East Rochester much but this restaurant is worth a drive.
Very busy Saturday night. It was very crowded but the food was fantastic and the employees were awesome!!

Nick and his team in the Kitchen are some of the best in traditional Italian meals that Rochester has to offer. Always a great meal in somewhat cramped dining areas.

I've dined at this restaurant a couple of times before and had great experiences. However, when I recently ordered takeout, including their pizza and wings, I was disappointed. Just look at the picture of the wings—they were awful. They even looked dead because someone decided it was a good idea to add 1 Liter of oil in the take out box and drowned the wings to death.

2nd time there, both visits the food was delicious! Red sauce is tangy how I like it, cheeses are fresh. My husband and I made late 7:30pm reservations the Friday after Valentine’s Day. When we arrived we were told to wait for a few minutes which I didn’t mind. They had nice live music playing and good drink specials. However, it was now nearly 8pm and there were 2 tweens with their parents hanging out at the bar. They were loud and taking up room. In my opinion, 8pm seems a little late to allow children at the bar. Especially during cocktail hour with live music playing. Then we were seated next to a large family with a toddler and infant. As a mom of 4 I get it, but maybe hit up the 4:30/5pm dinner hour and let the adults who pay babysitters to go out later some peaceful eating?This family didn’t leave until close to 8:45pm. The tables around us were all couples. Is it possible to seat larger kid friendly tables away from couples?Again, food was delicious, even though our server didn’t bring us bread, or silverware. She was a little nervous or uneasy also.Good prices, good drink menu.
