   The food was great! They need to work a bit on their timing. The salads came and we barely started when the entrees were given as well. The appetizer came at the same time as our meal. However the dishes we tried were delicious and we will be coming back

   My daughter had the pizza and said it was pretty good, I had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was meh. It took a while to get served, once we ordered the food came out pretty quick.

   First time dining here. The food was great and the decor is adorable, but the service left something to be desired. Although our waiter was nice, he was a little clueless and we had dirty plates just piling up on our table as the next course was arriving. Only forks on the table - had to ask for knives. Not enough table settings. It was a little strange. No hot tea or decaf coffee, which seemed odd to not have either. And unfortunately it’s a small place which gets incredibly cold because there is no outside double door. Every time the door opens, a massive draft comes in. Multiple tables at the front had to ask to be moved. We’d love to come back, but I think there are a few kinks to be worked out.

    We ordered the arancini appetizer. While delicious we received 3 portions not much bigger than golf balls for 12.00. They came to the table warm, not hot. We had pasta entrees and they were good. Portion size good but, not large- no take home. You don’t get bread at the table. Our server asked if we wanted a slice of bread with our entree and we all said yes. It was a very thin half slice of bread. It was buttered and grilled. Definitely not big enough to soak up the sauce from our pasta. We had tiramisu and vanilla gelato for dessert. The gelato was good a single scoop. The tiramisu was delicious but, was a 2x3 inch piece for 9.00. Our server was pleasant but, not overly attentive. We were sat near the front door and it was 20 degrees outside so, it was not pleasant when the door was opened. One thing that I hate- the server had a hand held device for taking payments. She swiped my card then handed me the device for tip and signature. The device had buttons for 18, 20 and 22% tip or a custom tip button. I don’t like a server standing over me watching. To me it’s uncomfortable. We had a nice lunch(off dinner menu) but, We thought it was a bit pricey especially for the portion sizes. Probably won’t order off dinner menu but, will probably go back and try the lunch specials which, sounded yummy.
