    Wine & pasta dishes were a big hit. Waitress spilled entire glass of white wine accidentally onto our table & all over me. While she moved us to another table & offered to get me paper towels, she never expressed any remorse. A simple “oops, I’m sorry! Or… whoa, sorry, didn’t mean to do that!” would have gone a long way. Wedding soup had lot of carrots & celery, like a vegetable soup, but no spinach. Only 4 small meatballs. Grilled octopus was excellent.

    Really rough night for service. We waited for everything from drinks, to bread, and especially the meal. The waiter kept saying they were understaffed but there seemed to be plenty of people wandering around and they weren’t that busy. The food was good when we finally received it but the experience was very disappointing.

    The spaghetti & meatball dish was OK except for several clumps of pasta stuck together. Should have been removed when plating. This was the case on 2 orders.

    We enjoyed the Summer special menu. The food was very good and the portions were enormous. Our server was friendly and very on point. We enjoyed the calm and relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely be back to try something different.

    My husband had the Carbonara which was not at all creamy but actually dry. It contained almost no pancetta. I had the pork panini which was a huge amount of bread with 3 very thin, dry pieces of pork and nothing else. The zucchini fries would have been good if they had not been terribly over salted. We will not be going back.

    Food promised to be good but service was horrible, waitress had attitude and did not know what she was doing - constantly went to ask a manager to every answers which were normal request like - may I have a kid chicken strips in the container to go or can you do side order of chicken to go… every restaurant on the planet - fancy as we do not eat in any other will do request! Never ever go to this one …. And not wonder why they are never busy!!!!! Service is the worth - we did not finish our meal, paid and just walked to another restaurant next to it - where we just eat almost every dinner.
