I had the pork shank and my wife had the veal piccata. Both were very tasty. Bread is upon request but salads are not included with the meal.
Nice atmosphere and our server Sarah was very friendly and professional.

Now called Ciao Bella with a much smaller dinner and wine menu, but still maintains some of the classic dishes. Booths are gone, replaced with numerous tables and chairs, and it is LOUD when crowded. Wait staff and kitchen both became overwhelmed when restaurant was 60% full, leading to LONG waits.

Placed an order to go after leaving work and got there 15 min after it was supposed to be ready. They then kept saying they would go check on the order for me but never checked or kept me updated. I sat in the corner waiting for 1 hour for my order that I ordered 35 minutes before I arrived. You would be able to make your own pasta and sauce from scratch and crochet a whole quilt before they have your order ready. Very disappointed

This must be under new management because the name has changed. It's now called Ciao Bella.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. We had reservations and they claimed they didn’t get the online reservations because the lady was out that usually puts them on the book. What? You don’t have someone else to do her job if she’s out??? They were short staffed on Valentine’s Day of all days... they sat us down at the same time as another couple. The other couple was waited on immediately. No server ever came to even take our drink orders because apparently they didn’t have enough servers... don’t seat someone until you have someone available maybe??? After 20 minutes of sitting there waiting and the couple next to us already being served their salads, we left. There was no sincere apology from the manager (I believe he was a manager), only a “sorry no one waited on you.” The manager didn’t seem to be in a great mood and was clearly agitated in general. From working in customer service for years, you should never take that out on your customers. And the manager of all people!! I really have no words. Unprofessional, horrible service. Will not give them a second chance since they ruined an otherwise wonderful day.
