The food and service is usually very good.
Johnathan is the best service person. Just ask for him and his service and the food will have you going back.

Atmosphere is an because most may appreciate a more reserved atmosphere. But clearly there are regulars here and they appreciate and know each other. Food was amazing. Servings were large. The side salad was more like a full salad in other restaurants but at a side price. The pasta and sauce were excellent. Bthrnfreah baked bread was worth waiting for n our server was prompt and checked in enough to show he was there for our needs. We weren't expecting much when we say the outside. But inside is a little bit of Italy!!!

I had a poor experience. I was seated immediately, but wasn't given a menu until 40 mins later. The entire staff was busy entertaining and conversing with a birthday party that was happening at the bar. My own waiter ordered a shot of alcohol for theirself and I watched them swing it down. Other wait staff were drinking at the bar along with the birthday party. It was very unprofessional. I spent over 2 hours there, and I was by myself.

Well, I'll start off by saying I wish I took photos of my food. Not sure what came over me.
We sat at the bar and Shannon took care of us. She's friendly and on point. Great bartender. The people sitting to the left of me and to the right of my wife were super friendly and we had great conversations. The drink menu has something for everyone. I ordered an old fashioned. The drinks are strong just the way I like them. The food here is really good. I ordered the cheese ravioli with meatballs for my dinner. I didn't think I could eat the whole thing... but I did. Their bread is fresh, hot, and yummy. Chicken soup is just like your Nana's. Salads are fresh greens no rotting lettuce to be found. Next time around I'll take photos and add them to this review. I will be back for more.

Unbelievable experience. Top notch Italian food. Quality ingredients. Cooked with love. Casual, yet high-end. Homemade gnocchi with pink sauce- unreal and incomparable. Veal sandwich- homemade bread, quality meat, overall amazing. Prices significantly undervalued. Varied atmosphere. Bar setting. Casual booths. Centered tables. Separate rooms. Willing to accommodate. Unique needs and requests. Children welcome. Politely request separate space. Avoid disruption. Classic music. Overall- memorable and excited to return.

I have been coming for years, last night 5-30-25, I was with another couple and my husband, the other couple had a gift certificate that I gave them for Christmas, $75 certificate, the card certificate I had $75 written in pen on the back of the card which I do to all gift cards I give out, we left $175 with the gift cards included… bill was $144…We left the gift card and $100 bill in the check folder, we are outside for 5-10 mins talking before getting in our cars to leave and the waitress comes out with the check folder saying we had enough for the bill but only $6 for a tip!!! They all know me in there and I always tip well… the waitress said there was only $50 on the gift card… I said what??? I gave that gift card to this couple and I said let me see the gift card… when I looked I said “this is not the gift card we left”, the waitress insisted it was… I looked at the gift card and there was no writing on the back of $75… I kept saying this is not the card we left!!! Well I dished out another $23 to cover the tip which we had already paid for… the mystery is… “Where is the original gift card we put in the bill folder with the markings of $75???? Sad but for this reason, I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO EAT HERE AGAIN!!! It’s been bothering me all night because I just had the gift card in my hand that was put in the bill folder with the $100 bill…. Makes me wonder and sad at the same time!!!!

***THANK YOU FOR GETTING BACK TO ME!!!
THE GIFT CARD I GAVE THE WAITRESS WAS PURCHASED BACK IN DECEMBER FOR A GIFT, ON THE BACK OF THE GIFT CARD I WROTE WITH A PEN $75… WHEN THE COUPLE HANDED THE GIFT CARD TO ME TO PUT WITH THE BILL I SAW MY MARKING OF $75 ON THE CARD, AND ALONG WITH THE $100 BILL WAS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO COVER THE BILL AND THE TIP, WHEN THE WAITRESS CAME OUT TO SHOW US THAT THE GIFT CARD WAS ONLY $50 , WHICH IT PROBABLY WAS, BUT THAT WAS NOT THE GIFT CARD WE LEFT!!! I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THIS WAS NOT THE GIFT CARD I LEFT WITH THE CHECK FOR 2 REASONS: 1- THERE WAS NO $75 WRITTEN ON THE BACK OF THE GIFT CARD …2- THE GIFT CARD WE LEFT HAD NO MARKINGS ON THE FRONT BUT THE CARD SHE PRESENTED TO US HAD SOME THING IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THIS PARTICULAR CARD…. IN OUR DINNER PARTY TWO OF THE 4 PEOPLE WITNESSED WHAT THE ORIGINAL GIFT CARD LOOKED LIKE!!!
THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THE GIFT SHE PRESENTED TO US WHEN SHE CAME RUNNING OUTSIDE IS NOT THE GIFT CARD THAT WE LEFT ON THE TABLE, THERE WAS NO $75 WRITTEN ON IT AS THE CARD WE LEFT HAD $75 WRITTEN ON THE PLASTIC GIFT CARD!!!! THAT IS WHAT DISTURBS ME THE MOST, LIKE WE WERE MADE A FOOL BECAUSE SHE KEPT INSISTING IT WAS THE CARD WE LEFT AND IT WASNT!!!!

Pasta with three kinds of mushrooms was exquisite! Paired with a glass of malbec and a shared limoncello dessert!

I went to have dinner at your restaurant. We sat down and waited for the server. Placed my order, fish n chips. I saw that the waiters were taking bread to each tables but, I was never offered any bread. I then got my order, fish was ok but the french fries were cold n burned. It looked like someones left over french fries. I paid my bill but never complained. I got home n than called the restaurant to ask if they offer as complementary bread to every customer and they said yes, that the bread is served as complimentary to every table. I felt as I was treated unfair.

Love this restaurant. Have been multiple times. Food is delicious. We took friends there last night, 5/13/25. There was only one waitress and one bus boy as the hostess went home. These two staff handled everything for the entire restaurant.The waitress even bartended.She was amazing!!! We all wanted to help her. It was very busy for a Tuesday night. I hope you appreciate her and the young man that assisted her. Commendable!

WOW, this is the first place I've placed a p/u order for a Meatball anything, other than at a Federal Hill restaurant and gotten Delicious, Homemade, Fresh Meatballs ⭐ It didn't need the cheese.

I've been driving past it for years and you would never know it's here. I saw a takeout dish someone had and asked where she got it. I definitely plan to go in and enjoy a full meal...Soon

I ordered over the phone and when my boyfriend got there to pick up my order 25 later, the man on the phone never put my order through. The Lady suggested to retake the order but who wants to wait after the fact?? Hopefully they train these folks better!
