Decided to try this place out with family and friends, and we were all disappointed with the experience.Firstly, the table we were seated at was extremely close to other tables and the wall to the point where we were not comfortable in our seats.Secondly, for an appetizer we ordered the fried pickles, and they came out burnt, and the breading had no flavor, so we essentially just got hot (as in temperature) pickles. One of us had ordered an entree that came with a side salad which was delivered at the same time. The side salad was served on a small plate, but was piled high to the point that mixing it was not possible. Additionally, they put sweet peppers in their salad (which is bizzare), and despite being an Italian restaurant they do not have Italian dressing as an option for their salads.Third, the food was delivered to our table as it was made, so each of us got our food at different times. Additionally, I ordered the Shrimp Alfredo (which cost about $20-$21) and was disappointed to see a small helping of pasta, and five shrimp. The shrimp had been peeled...except for the tails, which was confusing since now the shrimp are covered in a thick alfredo sauce which means I had to cut the tails off with a knife rather than having them peeled, losing some of the protein in the process. The noodles were cooked excellently though, and the sauce was rich and creamy. The rest of the food was fine, except for the Stromboli and French fries. Their French fries were bland, and despite being served as the food was made, were lukewarm. One of our group members had asked for a small amount of ricotta in their Stromboli, since this restaurant uses ricotta in their bolis, and there was still a considerable amount inside.The server was attentive to out table though, coming back often to ensure our drinks were filled, and to see if we needed anything. We did not tell her about any of the food issues, as we didn't want to bother the chef, since they have multiple signs stating they were understaffed.The lighting in the restaurant is pretty dim, and when combined with the decor, just makes the establishment appear dirty, rather it is or isn't. As stated earlier, the seats are placed very close together, making the experience very claustrophobic.

Order large pizza extra Sauce. My pizza came with basically no sauce and crust was so dry you had to drink glasses of water to get it down. NEVER AGAIN . DOMINO'S MAKES BETTER PIZZA

Delicious wood fire margarita pizza! The pasta dishes are so good with large portions. Staff is super friendly and very efficient. Will definitely be back!

Ok, so if you haven't gotten wings here you're missing out. You have to eat the wings there because they get soggy in the to go box from all of the steam. Wings are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Perfectly cooked. Wood fired pizza was amazing as well. Staff were great too! 100% recommend.

Good pizza the dough/crust was a little thick and chewy for my liking. The flavors on the margarita pizza were good. I would have liked round slices of Roma tomatoes. Overall good food I will go back.

First impression was what a wonderful atmosphere!We were greeted and seated quickly.Our server was kind and informative and attentive.Menu wes extensive and many things looked appealing but we opted for wood fire pizza because it is not easy to find around here.We were not disappointed! The pizza was delicious. Crust done to perfection. Ingredients were fresh and very flavorful.Will be back!

Had dinner here and was not impressed at all. My one child had tortellini that wasn't very good and he only got maybe a dozen pieces of it on his plate. He also asked for Alfredo sauce instead of tomato and when the bill came, we were charged $2.50 extra for the Alfredo, on a kids menu item!! We also ordered the loaded ocean fries at just under $10 and got less fries than you would get as a side to a meal and they were soft and greasy. The food was absolutely not worth the price, especially the upcharges. I understand paying more for a substitute but not 1/2 the cost of the plate. Only got 2 stars because of the attentive and friendly staff.

Come for the food, stay for the wine! Veal parm was excellent! Asked about wine, found out they make their own in house! Had a glass, very delicious! Went perfect with the food! I came on business and will be back in a few weeks! Pizza looks good too.

Ordered through door dash.Was very good. I'm sure it would be better there and not steamed in a box....Margherita and a Gluten-free. It lacked a certain zing in the sauce that i like, but very good nonetheless.Want to go there and check it out in person :) Fries were delicious too.

I used to love this place. Their Burrata, Alfredo sauce and bread were amazing! My most recent order (jalapeno poppers, fettuccini alfredo with added chicken) was extremely disappointing! The chicken($4 upcharge) had been badly freezer burnt before cooking - more than half of it was completely inedible, the alfredo sauce was not as I remembered it -- much more runny and less savory and flavorful as before, and the side of garlic bread could barely be classified as such. The bread itself was hard as a rock, and not even enough garlic butter to give even a tint of yellow. The cheese in the jalapeno poppers was thick and grainy - ate only 2 and threw the rest away. I have high hopes for the side salad - will eat that for lunch today. Even the packet of ken's blue cheese dressing was warm when I received it. Overall, a very underwhelming dinner for my $30. I don't think I can justify spending my money there again, for they quality they're delivering. Service has always been great, though!

Ordered a gluten free pizza and was given a regular one, caught it two bites in. The waitress argued with me. Was given a gluten free one that wasn't hot through and cheese wasn't fully melted. What will be a night of stomach pain for me could have been much more serious for someone else.Manager was wonderful when he was made aware, and stressed that he would be sure to talk to servers about the importance of making sure gluten free is observed.

Amazing food! Great service!!

Fantastic service and food. Wood fired pizza is to die for. The Cannoli was imported from Italy and was fantastic. Staff was great at answering questions about the menu and making recommendations. There are options for the fine dining side and for those are less adventurous with food. Great prices.

I am a traveling nurse, so I favor local business for food and drinks. This restaurant has very friendly staff, and really good food! The fire oven pizza is worth every penny! As I was getting ready to leave I ended up ordering a Tiramisu to go when I found out it is imported from Italy! It is so good!

Tried the wood fired Margherita pizza, was not disappointed, my wife and I both enjoyed. Also have specialty cocktails which I thought were very good. I would definitely return and the service was awesome!?
