It was fine, manager was nice enough to serve us while the server was busy. Food was delicious.
Was pleasantly surprised by the meatballs, chicken parm sandwich and pan fried mortadella.
Would prefer other options rather than just fries with the sandwich.
Bathroom needs to be cleaned a little better.

Great Italian food! Recommend the chicken parmigiana, bolognese, lasagna, carbonara, Caesar salad, ravioli! Awesome wait staff, great drinks, recommend the martini. Wife and I have been there several times with different family members and friends and always walk away impressed. My daughter loved the bolognese.

Food was actually good as the salmon tartar was surprisingly tasty, and a good crisp Caesar salad, our server was nice and tried hard, but a plethora of unforced errors made us regret our visit. Late food, forgotten food, poorly made poached eggs, etc. Nothing was comped, although extensive apologies. Seems hit or miss.

Decided on a whim to make a reservation because we always see people in here and the food always looks good as we pass by - and I’m so glad we did! Best pasta we’ve had in a LONG time. I got the bucatini carbonara and it was perfect. My partner got the rigatoni with vodka sauce and it was also very good. The tiramisu espresso martini is amazing. We will be back!
Food was good. Drinks were good. Server was great. Management was AWFUL. Had a reservation for a table of 3 here. We stayed a while but were consistently ordering drinks after our meal was finished, not just taking up space. $225+ into the bill & this manager w/ these thick ass glasses on walks up to us & tells us that someone else reserved the exact table that we’re sitting at and that we needed to cash out and leave. Apparently, when you make a reservation you’re not allowed to stay more than a certain time (never heard of, not listed anywhere in writing). After asking for proof that this was the policy, thick ass glasses manager proceeds to parade around the restaurant giving all sorts of dirty looks to my party but never came back with proof. When confronted about how he approached us, he was NOT receptive to any of the feedback that was provided.
Not once did thick ass glasses manager offer another table, another area to sit, NOTHING. No solution to the problem THEY caused by overbooking. We were not being obnoxious, loud, or doing anything that would make you want us to leave your establishment. Putting people like this in charge is the reason why small restaurants go out of business. Ownership will probably be clueless as to why people no longer support their business. Thick ass glasses manager definitely needs a lesson on hospitality. This place will probably be out of business in a few years, just like the restaurant that occupied the space prior to them. Especially if they continue to hire poor management, which is really unfortunate for the ownership.
As I said before, the food was good, the drinks were good, and the server we had was great. But this will not be a place that I recommend to anyone in my network.
SN: Yes, we still tipped our server well, it was not her fault the night ended the way that it did. She was nothing but nice to us.

1/5! The food and service were great, and a special shout out to Iman. However, we had an earlier reservation and stayed at our table for about 2.5 hours. The manager approached us and mentioned that the table was reserved for another party in 10 minutes. Mind you, when the manager first approached us, the table had just gotten another round and barely drank our drinks! We asked if there was a time limit on reservations, and he said yes, but when we requested proof, none was provided. After waiting for about 15 minutes, we had to ask our waitress to call the manager back, and when he returned, he simply said, "Yeah, I have nothing for you."
We weren’t offered any alternatives—no other tables, no seats at the bar, just told to leave. This was despite the fact that we were still ordering food and drinks, not just sitting there idly. To make matters worse, another manager came up and asked if we needed bags for our food, clearly implying it was time for us to go.
The most frustrating part was that as we left and drove past the restaurant 10 minutes later, the table was completely cleared with no one seated. It felt like we were rushed out for no reason. We were celebrating my sister’s birthday and left feeling disappointed. All they offered us was a free shot and then asked us to leave.

I was so excited to try this restaurant. The service and atmosphere were great. Our server was awesome. Unfortunately, the food was just mediocre at best. I thought we were being pranked with the amount of cheese on the salad and the pasta dish was EXTREMELY salty. The calamari was great. For the price of this restaurant, I expected the food to be much better. Maybe we had a new cook or something but give them a try. I hope your food comes out like the reviews I heard! We won’t be going back though.
Good food and great vibe.
