I heard really wonderful things about this restaurant. Friends had recommended and one in the party had eaten there before. I think I wasn’t wowed as I wanted to be and that is unfortunate as the service is excellent and all were very friendly and accommodating. One of the specials, the escargot app was bland and tasteless, even tho they were plentiful and came in a buttery, rich sauce with a pastry puff accompaniment. The rack of lamb was not tasteful either and 5 were served, not a full rack. I did like the salad very much, all dinners come with them and the mashed/veg mixture was good. Not sure I would go back and there are so many other amazing places to go back to and some others to try.

This place is a gem, a real throwback to when dining out was a pleasure. Been here several times for lunch and dinner. Warmly welcomed each time. The service and the setting and the food are all top-notch. Great fish always, and many traditional Italian dishes to choose from. Good sides, too. Each dinner entree comes with a lovely salad , nicely presented with a tasty house dressing. I feel fortunate to live nearby but would drive longer if I had to. many of their regulars come from other towns.

This place has had several health code violations as recently as January 2029. I would not eat here as I fell ill after eating here.

First time diner. Appreciated that the bartender went out of his way to make a margarita just the way I like it. Had a delicous salad and pasta with seafood. Also liked that we were not rushed through dinner. Warm, cosy environment with outdoor seating. Unpretentious and very good food. I'll be back.

Dinner was delicious and the desserts were to die for! The service was fantastic especially for a very large group. The salad dressing alone is worth a visit. The owner, family and staff were all terrific making our visit memorable. We will have dinner here again.

Fresh ingredients but very stingy portions. Shrimp scampi with angel hair pasta, shrimp, capers, tomatoes and feta had 5 shrimp and a sprinkling of the other ingredients but lots of angel hair. Same with Caesar salad; 3 croutons and 5 parmesan flakes. Disappointing and expensive. First and last time for me. Much better Italian in the area.

Our experience at this restaurant was truly unforgettable—one that neither my girlfriend nor I had ever encountered before. From the moment we walked in until the moment we left, the family-run staff went above and beyond, showing exceptional kindness, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality. The food surpassed all expectations, and the overall ambiance was warm, welcoming, and perfectly comfortable. We couldn’t have chosen a better spot to celebrate our anniversary. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would—this place deserves a 15/10. Highly recommend!

The service was excellent especially with a group of 16 dining. We all had amazing dinners and dessert to die for! The salad dressing alone is worth a visit. The owner, his family and staff were all wonderful as was the ambiance of the dining room. We will be back, often. Thanks for making our night perfection!
