Absolutely delicious. Calamari, salad, bread with oil dip, chicken parmesan, tiramisu, all very delicious. Courteous waiter. Fast service. This place should be packed every night, but it wasn't. It is gem of a find. Prices are fair but worth it. Go go go there.

Great food at a reasonable price and good service. We'll repeat next time we're in the area. Shrimp Angelini's was amazing, my daughter loved her eggplant parmesan, and my son enjoyed his cheese pizza.
