New to the area and trying out restaurants. This place hit all the things I wanted. Server was, kind, checking in, refilled waters constantly, offered to make us fresh coffee to go along with our dessert. The cost of dinner was appropriate for the amount of food we ordered. Everything we ate was delicious.

I haven't been here in about 20 years. This used to be our family's go to place when I was growing up. Tonight we stopped in to give it a try again. I have to say that it was an evening of nostalgia and great food. The meat lasagna was almost exactly as I remembered it. The wedding soup... same. Even the crusty bread took me back to a time in the late 80s and 90s when this place was always booming. The decor has changed and for the better, but the service, the food and the happiness I relived tonight was all the same for me.

Very over priced for just okay food and small portion size. Use to be a good restaurant not any more. Do no recommend

Came here before and the food was amazing, and tasted like my nonna's. Second time around no so great, potato balls tasted frozen and the baked ziti only had small amounts of meat and definitely not baked. Waitress was amazing though! I will come back to try again, and hopefully something changes.

My friends and I were doing a scavenger hunt for a friend’s birthday, and one of the challenges was to eat pasta at this place. We asked the owner how fast he could make the simplest plate of pasta, for which he whipped up this pasta in this lovely red sauce. Upon trying to pay, he didn’t charge us and said to come back for some beer or drinks. He was super kind despite us being kind of annoying with our request. The patrons were also really nice, asking us about our hunt! I therefore recommend this place to you to support the owner!! Thanks for cheering us on in our scavenger hunt!!!

Classic Italian Bar and Restaurant. One of the few left in Little Italy. Great Italian food that tastes like Grandma's cooking. The owner Jamie is usually around to make sure your visit is top notch.
Also included a nice bar areas with TVs to watch sports.

I went this past Sunday evening on a whim for dinner. The gentleman who greeted me (also the bartender, busser, and manager by the looks of it - he was a champ!) was so friendly and welcoming. My server was very sweet as well, and very composed considering the volume of diners she was serving! Looking at the menu, the prices do seem a little high, but the portion was huge, enough for two people, and came with a cup of an amazing homestyle Italian wedding soup. I wish I’d gotten a picture of the plate. I had the ziti - the sauce was delicious, not too heavy, and very flavorful. I came in starving and left stuffed. I will definitely be back!

The food the so so, but the price is a bit high. We got two entries to go and spent over $70. Very little amount of sauce for the stuffed shells. Won’t go back again.

I had a pretty disgusting experience here. I ordered an alfredo dish and my plate came with what looked like the last customers marinara sauce leftovers? It was honestly disgusting I did not even want to send it back because if my plate has leftover food on it god knows how unsanitary the rest of the place is. I would check forks and spoons as well when dining in.
Don't come here. We had a party of 12, and we were practically the only people here. It took 2 hours to get our food and when we asked for boxes because we didn't have time to eat, they got upset. The chef came out and embarrassed the new server in front of us, despite the server getting our order right. The Italian egg rolls had nearly no meat in them. Definitely won't be back.

I went for the little Italy and was amazing! I ordered a MATILDA with chicken and I really looooveeeeeed it!! Apparently the prices were higher than normally because of the festival.
