    Wednesday night is Pasta night. Dinner is served family style with foccia bread, Ceasars salad, and spaghetti with huge meatballs. Great dinner, cheerful efficient service, for $15. Can't get better than this!

    Food was delicious. Service was exceptional. A little pricey. Expect to spend at least $100, including tip for 2 people.

    Small venue, but nice. Service was excellent food was good and prices were fair. Menu options seemed adequate and the wine selection was fair and priced accordingly. Would try again but you need to request a table by a window which we didn’t know in advance of our reservation. Only had maybe 12 tables and a bar which u can order at as well

    Loved the food and there seemed to be plenty of wait staff so not really sure why when we had a 6:30 reservation we didn’t get out food until 8:30. On a good note we had extra time with friends. We already had a reservation again for next weekend with a different group of friends. Hoping we won’t have to wait that long again.

    Everyone in our party loved their food. We ordered 1 of every dessert, all were excellent. 6 in our party, each dessert was someones favorite. The only negative, being an Italian from NYC, (shhhh) is no bread, a little olive oil with some spices. Our table May have ordered a bottle of vino😘
