Amazing. Wish I was able to give more than 5 starts. We had a family party for 100 guests in the private party room and every single thing was perfect. The food was amazing, the room was spacious and clean and the staff was terrific. We will definitely be back for dinner, and another party when the time comes!

Upscale Restaurant and worth it. The service was excellent ?, and the food was fresh from Antipasto,pasta, fish, vegetables, and desserts. Had the vegetable tower, mozzarella w pepper olives, arugula dizzed in w vinegar. Also had the octopus grilled so tender. The fried calamari was another delight. Dinner was Ravioli's with shrimp and a cream sauce with tomatoes. My brother had the pasta w Lobster & shrimp in a champagne sauce. The portions were a large great for the next day. The spaghetti with meat sauce was another dish that was delicious, great the the kids. Ate the Tiramisu and tasted the cheesecake. Had malbac wine, along w my dish, plenty of cocktails to pick from. Sorry about not photoing. I couldn't help but dig in. The portions are worth the price. Reservations recommended, take the valet parking.Parking: On Hylan Blvd.

Excellent dinner!! Went here for my girlfriends birthday with her family and we had a great time! I had the chicken with sausage and my girlfriend split the porter house with here dad. Her mom Chilean sea-bass linguini and we all loved our meals. We finished off our meals with lava cakes and which was a perfect way to cap off that meal!

Came here for the complete dinner special last Sunday. They have a ton of different options and the prices are very reasonable. My friend and I ordered the red sangria it was delicious. We all did the dinner special; Caesar salad, eggplant rollintini, fried zucchini, and mussels in white wine. We were all happy with our appetizer as they were enough to share. We each opted for a different variety of entrees; chicken francese, salmon, orrechiete, and i had the mushroom raviolis which were very tasty. The portions were large enough to bring some home. The only complaint was that once we got to dessert We ordered it which arrived very fast, but the coffee took forever and we had to remind the server. Other than that they don't rush you, we were in there for about two hours and the meal was great. We would definitely come back here.

They made the best chicken piccata I have ever had in my sixty six years. And the pasta is homemade.

I wanted to like this a bit more and three and a half stars would be more accurate and fair. Great attentive service is always appreciated and this place has that. Food-wise it's a bit of a mishmash. Great caponata at the start and some decent sfincione. The sweet and sour calamari is great. Now it goes sideways. Cacio e pepe tableside better be spot on. This one falls short. Pasta whole cooked ok was a bit bland and using a grana padana cheese is a mistake. The missing seasoned component of salt is found in a pecorino romano cheese. It is the authentic and correct way to make this dish. Also, a better toothier pasta like bucatini would be a better choice than what appeared to be linguine. The veal osso buco was good but it's accompanying risotto was full and lifeless and not actually risotto but slightly undercooked rice. Rookie mistake. The panacotta was too lemon-y and should have been made with vanilla bean in it as the lemon contrasted the very good blueberry compote. I think a few adjustments and focus could elevate this restaurant and would love to get feedback from an owner if reading this.

This is a really good spot. The food and service are great, and the ambiance is modern and classic at the same time. I tend to like places that have an oven just for pizza, and a full bar, so this scratches both of those itches. I also am partial to Italian restaurants that know what they are doing with steak, and this checks that box.The portions are good, and the bread is on point. It was a large group, so we passed around a number of apps and shared some fish and steak entrees. I recommend all of them. The only thing we didn't try was pizza, so we will do that next time.The only knock on the place is the location, which while spacious and accomodating of groups large and small, is unfortunately in a place where it is nearly impossible to park. They usually have valet parking which helps, but if you want to skip that, you will be driving for a bit trying to find a spot in a residential area.
Excellent service, outstanding food. A very nice selection on the menu and a pleasant atmosphere. Parking near-by. Put this location on your radar for sure. Enjoy!

Food: Very tasty, we especially liked one of the free breads that was very nicely cheesy. Not much to say, solid apps, and dinner. Didn't do dessert.Service: We were the only ones there at first and they had initially mentioned the whole menu walking us through recommendations and such. After we had established that I was ordering the chicken and mushrooms, and my grandpa was getting something to go later but nothing (as he had eaten recently) they disappeared for 10 minutes before coming back and confirming my order. They were a little slow on the drinks, as well as with the check.Atmosphere: The walls in the larger room seemed more Asian inspired than Italian, and the room was cold and empty feeling otherwise. The other issue was the chairs slid easily meaning my grandpa nearly fell when he was getting out of his chair.Price: A little higher than it should be, around 3-4 bucks less per meal and it's on value.

Went for Father’s Day. No pizza appetizers and no soup of the day. Extremely loud in the large room but I suppose that could happen anywhere. My husband ordered penne a la vodka with shrimp…came with four little over-cooked curled up shrimp. Not a fan of the two types of calamari we ordered. All in all food was ok.

Took my mom there for mother's day and her birthday for the first time. The food was delicious, the pizza was cooked to perfection, our dinners were big and so good and the pasta special which we got as an appetizer made fresh was cooked in the cheese wheel omg so yummy and our server Salvatore was so nice and very accommodating. We ordered so much food and appetizers and the price was very reasonable. Our new go to place for excellent food and service ?
