We have been walking past this place for a few years and decided to try it for a recent special occasion. First off, the service was wonderful, they have a younger staff and they were on their game, our server rattled off the many specials without even looking at any notes which was impressive. Sad to say the actual food and atmosphere did not match. When we walked in we were surprised since the outside gives off upscale and romantic and the inside is giving chain restaurant with mediocre decor. It was also very bright and loud so not the vibe we were looking for. We got the mozzarella appetizer which was a great start however both our entrees were very salty and drenched in sauces, my dish included brussels sprouts and you could not even tell what they were since there was way too much aioli all over them. For the price we expected more.

1 party took up the entire bar during happy hour. We had to leave and go somewhere else. Poor management.

We ordered takeout (CAB Filet + Pasta dish). The filet was very good, but we found hairs weaved into the pasta not once, but TWICE. Tried brushing it off the first time, but second time was just beyond. I guess that’s homemade pasta for you. Didn’t bother calling bc it wouldn’t change anything, just def won’t be coming back.

Best Filet Mignon in the area. And the Bolognese is outstanding.

The food was great, as were the cocktails. It was a busy holiday weekend, but the server soldiered on. Just a few condiments and extra napkins that took longer to get.

The food was tasty. Honestly, I would not call this an Italian restaurant. There wasn't really any Italian food. The service was slow as they were quite busy.

Our visit started on a sour note. It got better, but we expected better based on recommendations from friends. The sour was the hostess. We arrived 15 mins early and checked in. When reserving we’d requested a booth because my father is hard of hearing and booths help him be able to engage in conversation. We were verbally told it wouldn’t be a problem. When arriving the hostess told us our table wasn’t ready, but should be on time. We said we’d go for a short walk and return and she said no problem. When we returned on time our booth had cleared, but another party had been sat in the booth. When I asked why we weren’t given the booth the same hostess now said they save them for parties five and larger. She completely denied she’d told me differently. Mistakes happen, but rather than admit it she chose to lie. In addition a couple parties of three were given booths during the course of our meal. We accepted a table and the service was very good. Three out of four of us really enjoyed our dinners. We had salads, two pasta entrees, a chicken entree and a steak. The person having the steak didn’t care for the searing which they said tasted burned, but once cut away it was good. We also sent back a shrimp bisque that was delivered cold. Portion size were reasonable. Wine was good. It’s not an inexpensive place, but the value was mostly there.

Very good food. Staff was friendly and attentive. Would be nice to have a few vegetarian options. We plan on returning again soon.Vegetarian options: Not too much for vegetarian. Really only five was salad and one of the pasta dishes. It's possible they could have made something off menu but we did not ask about that option. The for was very good though.
Sat right at the bar, food was great, large portions. Great selection of cheeses. Bar had plenty of room as well, not right up next to the person seated next to

Lauren the bar manager was rude and not informative. Went for happy hour and was charged $19 for a glass of wine. When I asked Lauren about it she curtly said you should have read the menu.
