Based on my inability to be seated, and treated like a second class citizen, I was told to leave without a reservation. Poor customer service does not even begin to describe what we experienced.

Atmosphere is nice for a quiet night out or even a larger party. Reservations are recommended. Service was decent and food was good but seemed to have too much salt or some spice that dominated the veal. Pasta has a mild flavored marinara that was not much better than a jar of ragu. I'm sure they have pent of other delicious items and their specials sounded good so don't be afraid to try something new.

It was amazing. Their food was delicious. They're staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. It's a cute little restaurant kinda hidden but their food is amazing.

First time trying this place. It was actually pretty good. A friend recommended while visiting family. I will say that I personally have had better fettuccine but my mom ordered it and liked it so that's what matters. The Greek salad was really a spinach salad as there was literally ONE olive and as shown those 3 little pieces of feta. The waiter brought out a small cup of olives which was nice. The little round things in the picture are fried mozzarella with marinara sauce. Very good! The pork chop was so tender and seasoned just right! It wasn't my order but I had to try it. It was sooooooooo good! I ordered the cheese manicotti. It was OK. The edges were a bit hard like it was under or overcooked. The waiter was terrific. Super attentive, friendly. I can't remember his name for the life of me but it was different. They only open for dinner and I think you have to make a reservation. Good music, nice atmosphere. All in all we had a great time.

The service is good but confusing.. It felt like we had every server tending to us at this restaurant which is nice but not used to it. Would like to make sure that we can give a good tip to one server that took care of us. The food was okay.. Not worth the price. I ordered the chicken parmigiana. The plate size was very large which i appreciated. But the chicken and the sauce was very bland. Did not taste like it was seasoned well. Cool atmosphere though.

Absolutely amazing food!! The lighting was low so I thought maybe a more intimate setting . I was wrong !!Only thing that wasn't good was the drunk table of women so loud took away from the intimate vibe .

Its good, peroni on tap would make it great!

My favorite restaurant! Everything is excellent and the service is great!

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. My husband and I went for our anniversary, as we have never tried the place and felt like having good authentic Italian food. Well, this was not the place for that! The entrees were OK, nothing spectacular. The bread they give you is not very good at all. We each took a bite and that was it. I'm sorry but you better have some good bread if you are an Italian restaurant! What really got me, however, was the fact that they charged me $16 for a side caesar salad! The menu said you can add a soup or salad for $4.95. When the waitress asked if I'd like to add either I said "yes, i would like to try the caesar". It was literally romaine lettuce with 2 croutons and like 2 small pieces of parmesan cheese. The dressing wasn't very good so neither my husband nor myself even finished it between the 2 of us. When the check came and I saw the price I questioned our waiter. He very rudely explained to me that it's a "house" salad that you can add for the $4.95 price, then proceeds to basically rip the check out of my hand and goes and runs our credit card for the full price. I could not believe the lack of customer service he displayed in that moment. I also can't believe they have the gull to charge people $16 for some lettuce! I will never step foot in this place again and will make sure my family and friends don't either.
