What a great surprise! I stopped for lunch while waiting for a tire repair and had a wonderful afternoon here. The manager / owner was delightful. I had a great pasta dish and soup and enjoyed everything so much I bought two beautiful looking pizzas for the family for later. The clientele all seemed like regulars and boy do they love the place.I will certainly be back when in town for work.

The bread alone gives this place 5 stars! It’s cute restaurant with very attentive and wonderful service. It can accommodate large parties and small groups. The provide delicious bread rolls and dipping oil to start. We also tried the garlic knots and were pleasantly surprised at the quantity we got for the money. The portions are generous! We also tried the “Pasta Your Way” where you pick which noodle and sauce you want. We got the spaghetti bolognese and linguini carbonara. Will definitely be back!

2 times I have ordered from this location and two times my order has not been completed on time. The latest time we ordered 3 Pizzas, 3 days in advance for 2 pm, and when we got there we were told it would be another 20-30 minutes because they had another “large” order come in that their pizza cooks had decided was more important to finish first. What is the point of being able to order ahead and set a time if they can never actually keep to it?? If you have an order for 2 pm, plan accordingly so that your orders can be completed in time. Done ordering from here. Food is ok, but not the best Italian I have had. The pizza is passable as good, but the prepared foods leave something to be desired. Wife got a chicken and pasta dish and basically got 1 pieces of chicken that was pounded so thin it was nearing paper thin. Customer lost

From the minute I walked into the door, the family atmosphere hit me like a wave. The people that manage this place of the highest quality and the food matches it. I had a stromboli which I usually avoid because they turn out gummy and nasty. This place was a complete opposite. The bite of fresh garlic in the crust. The salty nuttiness of the mozzarella, the quality of the pepperoni and thin sliced sausage. Everything deserves the chefs kiss. This restaurant is an hour and a half away from my home in Greenville but well worth it several times over. I will definitely be back.

Lovely place. Super nice owners. Delicious pizza. Huge servings. We will be back soon. Got 4 meals plus out of 2 lunch specials. Highly recommended.

2 Lasagnas w/ salads. We drive 45 minutes to eat here. Very nice staff ?

The food was great and the service was good. The only issue was it took 1, yes , one hour plus to get our food. When question about others getting there after, we arrived, we were seated first, and they got there meal before we got ours, this was several families, the waitress got upset with me. She basically called me a lier.T= To. T I P SI = Insure. - - - - - -P= PromptS= Service

We heard great reviews and thought we finally found a Authentic Classy Italian Restaurant... WRONG!  It is sad that it was nothing special and expensive for what we got.  Biggest dissapointment ever!We got seated in a booth next to a table of 6 with a patron super loud, we then get our dipping bread in a "paper bag" really?  Ordered the zucchini fritti and it was over fried, we ordered Chicken Francese and Chicken Parmesan both with Capellini, the Francese got delivered with linguini. Had to reorder the pasta ugh!  I asked for the sauce to be on the side for the Chicken Parm and the waiter reported that the Kitchen cannot honor that request (no class), never have I  been treated like that.  We drove 23 miles one way to have  Chicken parm about 5 1/2 inches in diameter for $19.00 (I can get a Costco 5 lb Roaster for $4.95 , and yes there was cost associated in preparing it).  Well let it be known NOT PLANNING IN GOING AGAIN.

Have been a customer here for about a year, ordered food tonight and the order was wrong, called the restaurant and got an attitude from staff on the phone and basically said it was my fault the order was wrong. It was all good when you needed support during covid and now it's well your fault the order was wrong. Three of us all were standing there while making the order and all heard the correct order. Just lost several customers that supported you when you needed it. Not now
