   Stazione di Federal was very pleasant. Great service, nice ambiance. Delicious focaccia, peach panzanella beautiful presentation and taste though peaches weren’t quite ripe. Eggplant pasta delicious, lemon and basil primavera good taste but slightly dry. Complimentary cannoli for my birthday delicious and very generous! Tiramisu enormous and beautiful. Only complaint was choice in music: classic rock and disco. Personally have no problem with either but it did nothing to complement the ambience. If they want to avoid Sinatra and Dean Martin that’s OK but maybe check out the soundtrack to Big Night to get some ideas. Overall, a lovely night and a wonderful experience. Will come again.

   Excellent value. Service was exceptional. Wine list very comprehensive and by type and regions of Italy. Menu varied, something for everyone. Loved the architecture and ambiance. Beautiful space and natural lighting. I had the delicious Beef Capraccio and Porcini Mushroom with delicate pasta purses. Husband had a tiered tomato and bufalo mozzarella Caprese Salad and Pork Milanesa. We enjoyed everything. A bottle of Abruzzo region red wine paired beautifully. We finished with a Sambucco each and took home bourbon cheesecake. Food scratch made!!!! Will go again!

   We were a party of six to celebrate my birthday. I had read mixed reviews for this restaurant but was willing to give it a chance. The salads were excellent, but when our meals arrived, my shrimp were cold and undercooked. Can't get rid of the feeling of biting into rubbery uncooked shrimp. Another person in my party had scallops and they were undercooked as well, and a third person in the party also had undercooked scallops. Not sure how you get that wrong. Two of us sent our meals back, my shrimp came back overcooked. They did comp two of our meals, (the third person didn't want to send his back, but we told the server at the end of the meal that his was undercooked too.) They brought out a beautiful plate of cannolis with a candle on it, those were delicious. Not sure I'd rush back there again.

   Absolutely fantastic I have Celiac and I was able to eat the gluten-free items with no issues. I even waited 3 hours after dinner to make sure before I wrote this review

   The shrimp were overcooked and dry in the scampi appetizer, but Marsala sauce in the chicken entree was delicious. Service was excellent, and ambience very nice.

    A nice dinner but just a few tweaks would have made it great. Pacing on courses was rushed, braciole was a little overdone, clams were a little bready - fabulous wine list, terrific short rib ravioli
