Fantastic atmosphere and service. Two had beef tagliata, one had lobster ravioli and one had chicken marsala, with arincini as app. Arincini was good. Our party raved about tagliata and chicken. Lobster ravioli was good but seemed a bit generic - would maybe try something different next time. Cannoli pie with cappuccino was a nice finish. Will definitely go back.

Too many servers standing around doing nothing when we got there and when we left. It did not have a good look. The service was fair, not real good. The food was not remarkable. The dining chairs were very comfortable.

We enjoyed a delightful meal. Thomas was our server and he performed his duties well. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us make excellent choices. Our appetizer of mozzarella and prosciutto was delicious as was our chicken sorrentino and eggplant parmigiana. The desert , a cannoli pie was outstanding. The ambience was lovely and the noise level low. We will definitely be back!

Food was microwaved service was not refined. Cleaning products on the table. Sardines were served in a plastic cup because they didn’t think we wanted it in the Caesar salad. Very wonky.

Started with the PEI mussles which were very tasty and the bread that accompanies we really liked. Had the swordfish..which tasted pretty good..nice flavor. The pasta that accompanied it was a large portion of not good pasta - very little flavor
