The entire staff was warm and engaging, and the cozy atmosphere made the experience even better. The fried calamari was excellent, and the manicotti bolognese was truly exquisite. Highly recommended .I’ll definitely be returning.”

The restaurant is located in the Howard Beach section of Queens. They prepare Italian cuisine. Soups, salads, pastas, entrees, pizzas, desserts and beverages are available. We ordered the baked clams oreganata and fried calamari appetizers. The margherita pizza was prepared in an on site wood-burning oven. The filet of sole oreganata and linguine bolognese were selected as entrees. The food was excellent and very well-prepared. The pizza was freshly made and tasty. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Absolute family vibe!

I had one night staying near JFK and picked this spot out of the blue and I couldn’t be happier about my decision. I travel for work so I like to sit at the bar. Upon entering I was greeted with a warm welcome and treated like I was a “regular”. Sal and Felix behind the bar were amazing and the service and attention to detail was impeccable. The manager (Nick, I think) was accommodating to my dietary needs and the food was great. If and when I come back to Long Island/the JFK area this will for sure be my first go to for dinner.

Staff was very nice. Food was average. I hate to say it. But olive garden is better. Not what I expected from an expensive Italian restaurant.

Great find in our travels. Recommend stopping if you’re in the JFK area and have time to unwind and enjoy quality time with friends and family. No rushing, good food, great time with friends

Went here recently for a dinner party… food was disappointing. I ordered chicken parm… the sauce was an orange color and tasted off. My son had the pork chop which he said had no flavor either. My rigatoni which was cooked al dente (thank you) and was good. We had some appetizers which were also good.

To access the party room, you have to walk through their main dining area which is a nuisance. I felt bad for people trying to eat there with people constantly passing through. Maybe consider opening the door in the party room?

Service was courteus and attentive. They have valet parking which is obviously a plus.
