I'd give it a 4.5. The food was good, not great, because the pizza tasted kind of stale. Otherwise a great experience, promptly seated and the atmosphere was pretty quiet. The staff was quick and attentive. I'll go again and see if it was a one off event, or an every time thing.

Great service and food! My daughter has been wanting spaghetti and she devoured the bowl. The garlic bread and pizza were so delicious and flavorful. We will be back for sure!

We got to go order of Italian sausage sandwich and spaghetti. I always get Italian sausage sandwich and this one wasn't very good. Wrong bread and was soggy. Chips weren't crispy and no onions. Peppers I had to put back on the sandwich. What a soggy mess. Be long time before we go back.

My experience here wasn't the best. I only gave 5 stars because of the food. It was fresh and hot and it was delicious. I noticed when we walked in some were staring at us. We were seated and I started to feel this weird energy. As I Iooked upon the room there were others staring . The waitress took our order in a rushed way and walked off before we were done ordering. We got our food pretty fast. We got our check even faster. I noticed while the waitress conversated with us it seemed almost like a rushed conversation. When we received our check she never stopped, just sat the check on table as she was walking away and said something that we didn't catch because she was walking and talking at the same time. I noticed another table was receiving their check, but the waitress's transaction with them was a little different. She stopped and talked to them, thanked them for coming and handed them bags to put their to go plates in. I felt like we weren't supposed to be there or something. The food overall was amazing. I want to recommend but I don't know if that would be a good idea.

Had hair in the French onion soup, garlic bread was dry and hard and the chicken fettuccine was sliced super market meat with hardly any sauce.

Poor dining experience. For some reason they seated us in the private dining section where a group was having a party, so loud we could not converse with each other, plenty of tables in the main area empty. So we moved ourselves. Then the food was brought, not what I remembered. Oh well, I will remember this visit.

Disgusting display of what was supposed to be a chicken alfredo dish, with a side cesar salad and simple breadstick. Ordered through DoorDash, I don't know if that's the reason for lack of effort put into my meal but it was absolutely atrocious! Firstly, what was supposed to be alfredo sauce was water on fettuccini noodles, probably just drip off from the strips of unseasoned, microwave chicken that was thrown on top. I'm sorry but alfredo sauce coming from an Italian restaurant is a pretty basic, simple dish... Parmesan cheese and olive oil cooked down. This is not my expectation, this is what the dish is, so if that's not achievable then you probably should change the label of the dish. Secondly, the breadstick, which I paid extra for, is a ball or rounded dough, not oiled or buttered, slapped in the oven burnt at the bottom and dry as all hell. I had to choke it down with the surprisingly great unsweet tea, which was the ONLY thing worth of the $30 I paid for a nasty plate of I didn't not know what. Even the salad was unwashed and thrown with like two shreds of Parma cheese. Horrendous. So disappointed. Please get it together! There was no effort at all. Also please add plastic utensils and napkin's at the least.

Gourmet Pizza of Artichoke and spinach and other vegetables. Loved the crust, but the toppings were so so. The spinach was a big disappointment of what seemed like the use of frozen. I also had a nice caesar salad just that the dressing was over powering that was not fresh but bottled. Had wait for ice for too warm of sweet tea.

The shrimp on the pizza wasn't de-veined so my first bite was grit. It was also soggy. Service was good. The hot wings were pretty tasty.

I give this restaurant 5 stars because the food is excellent. I suffer with diabetes and generally pizza is a definite no no. However offering their multigrain crust, my GLs doesn't spike. I am able to enjoy eating pizza again with my Wife.
