    Came here for Christmas Eve dinner. We booked a table for five and arrived on time. Restaurant was 2/3 empty at 4:30pm. We were led to a 4 person table. Hostess realized it wouldn't fit and asked us to return to the front until she figure out where to seat us. It took some time to figure out where to seat us. But finally we sat down. Food was good, typical Italian. The appetizers were tasty. Entrees were mostly finer, but the seafood squid ink spaghetti was okay, not the best I have tasted. Service was also good; our waitress (an Italian girl) was friendly and attentive. Food arrived very fast; and empty plates were cleared out even faster. The holiday rush I guess.

The service is equally amazing. The servers are attentive, knowledgeable and kind. The atmosphere is cozy but elegant. We are officially on our way to being regulars here.

    I loved this place!! The wonderful man in my life brought me here for the first time the other night, and It was a wonderful little place. The atmosphere, people, staff members, and ambiance were simply wonderful!! The food is so good, and the portions are no joke, I ordered the Lobster Fettuccine, and it was so delicious. I was able to eat a good amount, take the rest home. I did try to Tiramisu, and I felt like I was in HEAVEN!! It was silky, delicious, not too overpowering, and just melted in my mouth. I 100% recommend this place. Perfect for a first date, night out, or family dinner. 🥰
