Excellent experience. We have been wanting to try here for awhile now and are glad we did. Excellent staff and hostess. Food was spot on. Meatballs were top 5 ever. Carpaccio was excellent and the pork was melt in your mouth. Will go back again.

I made reservations on December 13 to be seated in front of the fireplace as we were celebrating our anniversary. I received confirmation that we’d have no problem with our request. Upon arrival we were seated in another room as someone was already seated at that table. After speaking to the manager he informed us that The Governor asked for that table and they were holding that table for him when it became available. He could accommodate us at a different table which he did. Even though we were moved to the room with the fireplace it would have been a nice gesture by management to have been offered dessert or something for our disappointment.

Unfortunately, we must’ve come on an off night as I’ve only heard wonderful things about this restaurant. The entire restaurant was full and there was one waitress there to handle all of the tables so with that being said the service was unacceptable. I felt sorry for the girl as she was in way over her head and it was not her fault But that ruined the entire experience. The food was decent, but the drinks were not good and took forever to come out . disappointing to say the least.

Surprisingly impressed with the rustic Italian restaurant decor on arriving. Not your typical strip mall setup. Food was delicious, service superb.
