The carbonara was disappointing in taste. Also, we asked for no protein but it had what looked like chicken. My spaghetti marinara arrived with meat sauce. (We are vegetarian.)Conversely, the servers were caring and willing. And the atmosphere is great.Vegetarian options: Well, there were options but not carried out.

$200 of disappointing food for a birthday dinner. Our waiter was in dire need of a shower and deodorant. Our $50 steak was inexplicably spicy burning both of our mouths to the point of not being able to taste anything after one bite. Shocking since requested no seasoning. Snarky unempathetic service from the waiter when requested that steaks be remade. Other dishes were mediocre. Not offered complimentary dessert for birthday despite noting at reservation and when arriving at restaurant. Would not recommend.
Super nice atmosphere by the fireplace. My scallops were delicious.

Our family of 5 made a reservation for 5pm for Dinner on a Sunday night. We had a lovely table and everyone was super friendly. However, our service was very slow and it took 2.5 hrs for us to eat. The slow service is not a relfection of the servers as they were very friendly, but it appeared to us they were understaffed. It took 90 minutes for us get our dinner and when we did get food we werr very underwhelemed at the quality of food for the steep pricetag. I would not recommend this place for a nice dinner. We have heard good things about the bar area, but as we had our kids with us we did not get to have that experience.

We had a great night here! We enjoyed the specials (crab risotto and rib eye) as well as some regular menu items, all of which were great. The flavor profiles are unique and much more Italy than Olive Garden. Our server was fantastic, informative, and quick. The atmosphere is dark and romantic, flickering electric candles and all! The sleeper favorite menu item was the orange Italian cream soda! ?Kid-friendliness: Would not bring children.

Excellent. I had the pesto eggplant for an appetizer and the linguini and clams for dinner. I’m an eggplant fanatic, add they nailed it. The linguini was cooked perfectly. The sauce was great. The house bread was served with olive oil and basalmic, just like it should be. There were multiple people taking care of us, and our waitress was exceptionally helpful. The decor is kind of old Italian with a romantic vibe.

Excellent entrees although the scallops contained a bit of sand. Great service and professionalism. Atmosphere is relaxing and definitely not packed to the brim like many of the other restaurants in the area. We thought the antipasto was not the best and the cheesecake was okay, but the entrees were exquisite enough on their own to make up for this. I would dine here again.

Had a wonderful experience at the restaurant. The food was phenomenal, the service was exceptional, and the drinks were fantastic. Looking forward to returning soon.
This is the best Italian food in central Oregon, and, they have a bar.

Really outstanding meal on Christmas Eve. They were really busy, but both the food and the service were spot on. I applaud their consistency - I’ve enjoyed every meal I’ve had there over the last 15 years. Seldom 4 stars but nearly always 5 and just so consistently good.

Had their chicken Marsala dish everything was cooked fine but for this to be a signature dish it was lacking flavor… sad to say Olive Garden beat them in flavor hands down ..May try again but would order something else .. service was great

Delicious food. We tried their signature cheese bread, cheese ravioli with chicken and Alfredo sauce and pollo allo romano.The desserts were also good. We tried tiramisu and gelato.Would recommend coming here.
