Excellent Italian restaurant, you’ll think your in the center of Federal Hill or Little Italy, NYC. Large parties may have a short wait

Although I have not eaten here in quite some time, I did stop for a couple of holiday cocktails and the servers were absolutely pleasant and courteous. I will be returning for an Italian meal soon and will review then..

Kudos to the Chef! The food here is outstanding!!!! I’ve been a few times and always try something different. Never been disappointed! If I lived closer I would eat here every week! I’m about 30 minutes away.

Veal and chicken parmigiana were absolutely awesome. Best marinara sauce and delicious chicken soup and pasta fagioli. Will return very soon. Busy little restaurant so try to get there early. ❤️
Eating here helped me better understand history. I now realize why it was so important for England to go to war over spices.
I didn’t take any pictures of my own, but if you scroll through the pictures left by other reviewers, you will see how bland the pasta dishes look.
We had a party of 5. I ordered eggplant parm and my partner ordered chicken parm. They looked as bare and basic as something someone who has never stepped foot in a kitchen would make. The red sauce used must have been a can from a generic food supply warehouse and heated up with nothing added to it. It lacked flavor or spice. A jar of Ragu would have been a major upgrade. This sauce was so incredibly basic and uninspired. It met the bare minimum requirements to be “red sauce”.
I didn’t try my partners chicken, but she only took a couple bites before stopping all together and making a note that with every bite she could feel and taste the oil dripping from it. My eggplant was so thinly sliced, I felt I was eating more breadcrumbs than eggplant. I also only had a couple bites, because I felt I was only eating deep fried breadcrumbs.
All of our pasta also came out overcooked.
We ordered 2 appetizers to start. The mozzarella sticks were a hit at the table but the calamari was flavorless, and again, tasted more deep fried than actual substance.
The waitress was kind, but when we asked her about the specials we were told “they are written down in the front”. Which is a minor complaint, but seemed a little silly to pass the responsibility of finding out the specials to the customers.
Then on top of all of this, there was 45 minutes between placing our order and receiving our food which is a on the longer side to wait for a party of 5. That’s a normal size family. We watched tables who ordered after us get their food before us. Maybe the kitchen just wanted to make sure the pasta was going to be overcooked?
Something that was unpleasant that is out of the restaurants control, and not something that effects the rating I gave it, but we were seated by some extremely rude guests who would not stop making comments about our party the entire time. I wasn’t made aware of it until I left and my partner brought it to my attention. But they were upset that “young people could be so wasteful with their food”, like it was our fault the food was so terrible? I only mention it to include the clientele. Cranky, entitled boomers.
If you’re in the Scituate/Glocester area and looking for a place to eat, Italian or otherwise, I’d suggest making your way down to Cuozzos, Famous Pizza, or Cindy’s. I promise you that pizza places sell a better tasting pasta dish. Heck, I would make the effort to drive to Killingly CT, or Johnston. There’s plenty of restaurants with better quality food.
This place is not a good restaurant, let alone a good Italian restaurant. Whoever is in the kitchen is doing the bare minimum to make the food edible.

Really, the only gourmet food in this part of the state. There are pizza/sandwich joints around, but, this, this is quality food. Nice little place, great staff and excellent food. Small town/family vibe, class act!

Very cute place, first time here, food was good, staff.was polite, tables are a bit to close together but we had a corner table. Our pasta dishes where a bit expensive, but also large portions, just way to much food for me. Did take a long time for our food to arrive. All in all, worth a end visit.
