Dined here for New Years. The parmigiana was a bit chewy, but the focaccia, the pasta, and the service was incredible. There was a loud mouth few guys in the restaurant during our visit so that brought the vibe down a bit. The service was fast and friendly. Food was truly delicious. Would return again for sure!

Great pasta and chicken piccata and the wine was really good. A reasonably priced Italian-American neighbourhood restaurant with a TV at the bar, a loyal crowd and gregarious, welcoming hostess. I'd eat here again.

Stellar service, a delightful dining experience! There were 11 of us and as you might imagine we sampled quite a few dishes and all were excellent. I highly recommend any of the homemade pastas!! My personal favorites was the squid ink pasta with calamari. The tricolor salad was delicious as well. Great meatballs as an appetizer.
