    My companion and I both ordered the homemade fusilli with the special Sunday sauce and two meatballs. Delicious and a huge portion! I took home enough to warm up for lunch today. The wedge salad and cannoli were tasty too.

    We had a nice dinner before going to a play. Nate our server and was very professional waiter. The menu was limited but the Chef made up for it in a variety of nightly specials. We had the Clams Casino and they were top notch. We would recommend for a casual night out with your partner or first date.

    They closed the kitchen an hour early. When I arrived told me I could only have pizza. Reluctantly ordered a pizza. Crust was burnt—vegetables were raw. Really disappointing experience.

    Sunday Sauce and Meatballs make the perfect meal and end to the weekend! Great service from Suzy and a marvelous ambiance.

    We had great food and great service. However, there was no table available when we arrived, even though we had a reservation. We had tickets for the RPO, so we opted to eat at the bar rather than wait for one. It was ok, but not the ambiance that a table would have afforded us.
