The food was great, but the manager was a complete jerk. She ripped a glass of wine out of my 21 year old neic's hands when she thought she was under age. The food was great, but the tone was so negative by the hostesses and manager lady.

Went midweek, got seated immediately. Waitress had excellent product knowledge and was very friendly. I noticed within a half hour of opening there were allot more servers and helpers, so service was exceptional, they were on point.Be prepared for allot of food, this was our first time and we did not know what to expect, we were very surprised. Italian Nachos are like no other, excellent. Salads were on point and the meals were too. I wouldn't call it traditional Italian, but it's light years away from a chain style place. Head a chicken dish with an excellent gravy with perfectly cooked potatoes and very flavorful broccoli.Looking forward to trying out a few more dishes there for sure.

We got to the front door at 5 o'clock when they opened and there was a line of people around the end of the block! Even with all the chaos we were seated in less than 5 minutes and dinner within 20. All 3 of our dishes were fantastic and I can't wait to go back! The service was wonderful as well.

Love the atmosphere, great table service, impressive selections of beer and wine, if you're into that. I had the linguine alle vognole, great flavors. A good place to make the carbs count.

Not wowed but it's Italian food. Don't know that I'd consider the food far above that of a restaurant chain like Macaroni Grill or Olive Garden.Worth a first try.... definitely not worth an hour wait.

Great food,exceptional service, not expensive. if you like Italian food this is the place for you. This restaurant is my number one pick in Billings. Only tip is if you have two people get a salad and split an entree unless you like leftovers.

It started with a 20 min wait and then our table for two was seated in a back corner in a partially enclosed room with a large party with screaming children who were running around. I ordered the $10 glass of prosecco after seeing the glasses of two other customers served at the bar while waiting filled up to about an inch of the brim. Mine was, sadly, not filled so full. We ordered the caprese appetizer, the veal scallopini,, and pasta Ravenna. The food was served fresh and the entrées were hot. They also have complimentary garlic bread that is delicious. The service was Ok. She checked on us and we weren't in need of something, but she didn't connect with us and her visits to our table felt like she couldn't get away fast enough. If I ever eat here again, I will order take out and enjoy the great food in a better environment.

It was a fantastic amazing dinner!!! Food was great!!! Service was amazing!!! Our servers were friendly and nice!!!! The dishes we chose were really beyond delicious!!! Simply thank you for a wonderful evening out and creating a wonderful date night!!!

Love going here and getting the Italian Nachos! One of my favorites to eat as a meal and not just an appetizer. My boys love watching the cooks toss up the pizza dough and spin it around. My family always finds something they like to eat here and the portions are a good size. The garlic parmesan bread that they bring out to is wonderful and the staff is always friendly.

We had a wonderful meal. I ordered the Linguine Alla Carbonara, and it was delicious. I tried a little bit of everything that the rest of our table ordered, and it was all delicious. Overall, a fantastic experience.
