Stopped by there yesterday (4/20) on a humbug just for drinks and found my new favorite Italian restaurant!!! Everything about my experience was perfect. Everyone was so nice. The restaurant is beautiful. The meatballs were amazing! I had the best scallops I’ve ever had in my entire life! And I had the best cup of coffee I’ve ever had!!! Can’t wait to go back!! They get TEN STARS!!! Five ain’t enough!!

Wonderful waitress-great food & great service.

Drinks were good, service was great, and food was good! Christian and Wes on the second floor did an awesome job taking care of us and made sure we had everything we needed!! Only bad thing to say is green beans weren’t cooked and were lukewarm at best but it wasn’t my dish just a mention at the table. Def would go back!!
