100% lived up to the hype. Food was delicious, service was perfection, atmosphere was lovely and the entertainment was the icing on the cake. They even made my son something that wasn’t on the menu. I highly recommend this gem.

Food and atmosphere was very nice. However the service was not good. The owner was very rude to my wife on numerous occasions. I will not be going back.

The food here isn’t bad but the service is terrible on multiple visits. Food takes too long to come out. Over two and half hours start to finish. Better options nearby.

I just left this place and I will never go back. The food was okay, people in there were loud and cursing and the service was absolutely awful! The server John D. took our drink order and brings the wrong drink. Then tells us we need to order everything at once or else our entrees will take a long time to come out. So we ordered everything at once and our two pasta entrees took 40 minutes. After he took our order, he did not come back to our table NOT ONE TIME! We had to ask the bus boy for everything. I sat with an empty drink the entire dinner, no one asked if our meals were good, if we needed anything, nothing. The burrata was dry, the penne vodka was bland. We even had to ask the busboy to wrap our food and bring our check. After waiting another 15 minutes for the check, the server drops it at our table and doesn’t say a word, he picks up the check and doesn’t say a word, and then bring it back to sign and dropped it on the table and STILL didn’t say a word. It was the WORST service I’ve ever had. And then I called the restaurant on my way home because we were so annoyed and explained to the manager (also John) what had happened and all he said was “ok I’ll tell him”. He didn’t even apologize or anything. Overall a terrible experience.

Disappointing experience , especially for a Christmas Eve meal! Not only was the entrance of the restaurant blocked and cluttered with karaoke singers belting out loud renditions of baseball stadium opening songs and 1970’s Goldie's, they decided to contribute to the chaotic atmosphere by allowing random people to loudly croon a multitude of 4th of July hits …instead of Christmas songs or mello music. Absolutely zero consideration for the customers who came to enjoy a peaceful “ Christmas” meal with their families. Not festive nor appropriate…especially on Christmas Eve.
The poorly designed menu consisted of an ornate design that made it almost impossible to read the menu without using your cell phone camera and/or flashlight.
The food was served lukewarm and was mediocre at best. The audacity to serve instant mashed potatoes (yes it is so) dry greasy chicken cutlets and claim to be high end! I don’t even eat instant mashed potatoes at home which is where I wish we had eaten..
Honestly, for the $500 plus my family paid, we could have and will in the future choose a venue that is truly customer centered instead of a restaurant that felt like a seedy corner bar.

We were a party of five on Christmas Eve and very excited to come here. I am a person that has no issue paying for a great dining experience and great food. Well I was beyond disappointed, first the music was entirely too loud, if you’re gonna have entertainment keep it at a conversation level. The place is very gloomy, outdated and poorly decorated.
Next, who in Gods name serves INSTANT potatoes at a so called upscale Italian restaurant. I was like you have got to be kidding me, I’ve worked in many restaurants some very upscale and we would never serve instant potatoes. Hell I worked at an Ivy League college that served close to 2,000 for dinner and we had REAL potatoes!!! My food was lukewarm at best and definitely lacked in flavor and portion. Appetizers were extremely overpriced as well as everything on the very limited Christmas Eve menu.
So in closing we spent a little over $500 for a minus 5 star restaurant that I highly recommend not patronizing.

Very poor service. Seated next to partition in wall practically in the middle of a thoroughfare for staff. No offer for black pepper or Parmesan cheese for my pasta. Never again!!!
