We always wait a few days till after Valentine's Day to have our dinner out to celebrate. We like to avoid the crowds and louder atmosphere. We came in and were led to a table situated between the door and a large group celebrating a birthday (the other half of the restaurant was quieter and had open tables). The entire meal we had the freezing wind as DoorDash orders were picked up and had to speak up and repeat ourselves to compete over the loud noise. Service was slower, we ordered no appetizers and got the salmon and truffle pasta. The salmon was amazing and the truffle pasta was just alright. The server only came by a few times, was brief and not personable. There was more sitting and waiting than there was eating. Overall disappointed, and the restaurant didn't live up to the hype.

Made this reservation for Valentine's day. There was zero information that there was going to be a special menu. We sat down and were immediately disappointed to find this out. I had spent the past week looking over their regular menu to see if this was a place both my girlfriend and I would enjoy and the regular menu looked great. This special holiday menu was so puzzling and frustrating. They had about 7 main courses which most were around 40$ and contained seafood, we just wanted pasta. I got the short rib pappardelle which i will admit was good, but my girlfriend got a pizza which was a sad excuse for a pizza. Literally just 2 layers of dry dough with cheese stuffed inside. 28$. Really ? The value was insanely bad for what we expected. Also was charged for each soda I got which was frustrating considering the glasses i got were probably less capacity than a 12oz can. Overall I wouldn't return here on a holiday. Maybe need to give it a shot on a regular night where I can expect what my choices are.

Got the burrata with prosciutto as an app along with a spinach and feta salad, both were great! Ordered the truffle pasta, great but over priced at 37$. Ricotta cheese cake was excellent but small. Food and service were amazing, manager even came to check on ever table. Food slightly over priced on some items..

Overpriced for simple Italian food. They charged an arm/leg for large group dinner. $60 per person just a meal nothing special and drinks were extra:way overpriced and not even good!

Food was average for the price charged. Waitress was not attentive; didn't check in us even once throughout dinner (it was not busy at the restaurant). Busing staff was nice and helpful though. Don't think we'll be going back.

My dinner was delicious, but the portion was small...especially for the price. My margarita was not good at all. It was also served in the wrong glass and with all of the ice, there was barely any drink in such a small glass.

We have been coming to this restaurant since we moved here a year ago. The service is always amazing. We live nearby and wanted a good restaurant with good food and service and this place is it. We usually have Merita, server, and she is very attentive and great personality. When it's busy, we sit at the bar and Frankie, the bartender, is the best and very accommodating.

Beautiful restaurant and good food. The waitress tonight was very obnoxious when we my finance asked for Chicken Francese which they didn't have then asked for chicken Marsala and it's a no. I asked her to recommend something close to what he wanted and her response both times "only what's on the menu". I understand it's Christmas Eve and she is working but come on...., rude is not acceptable. She insisted we order our appetizers and entrees on a rush. For a party of 9 she got her tip automatically so no need to give good service.

It was Christmas Eve, buy we had a reservation and they still seemed surprised to see us. Took a long time to get table set up, forever to get menus dropped on the table and eventually to order. Most of the food was very good, but we were eager to leave before dessert.

The service was sub-par. They left us waiting for long periods of time with no waiter in sight. They apologized but still the meal took longer than expected due to the lack of service. The food quality was ok. It used to be better.

We had a great birthday dinner for my daughter. Evening started out and it was a little loud and hard to hear one another, but as some tables cleared out it was much better. Food was excellent (delicious kale salad with shrimp and two people had the bolognese, which they loved.) Highly recommend!

Service pleasant but somewhat slow. Two tables quite noisy and caused us to switch tables. Biggest complaint was orecchiette too salty, Always seems to take a long time to get butter, and iced tea never served in same glass size. Veal scallopinecquite tasty.

This was my first time at this restaurant. I sat at the bar waiting for my family to arrive. I ordered a Dirty Martini and was disappointed to find out that the bartender used Stoli Vodka. I figured a place like this would use top shelf products. Although I was disappointed with the bartender, I must mention that the table service and the food were pretty good.
