The ambiance was really nice. It is a family friendly restaurant. We had 4 appetizers, 2 pies and drinks. We ordered t he Plain Jane and Margherita pies. The Margherita was absolutely delicious. The Plain Jane which was a cheese pizza for the kids was not good. It had no flavor. You barely taste the cheese and dough flavor was bland. I would still go back just order the Plain Jane.

We went here with a party of nine to celebrate a birthday. It was the first Saturday after the new year. The food was delicious. We got both Italian meals and pizzas. The dessert was just so so, but that didn’t really affect our whole dining experience. We liked the lively vibe being that we were with the younger generation which likes Italian food, but wanted a more lively restaurant. It’s definitely lively and a wonderful ambience. We will give them the benefit of the doubt that it was a Saturday and although it didn’t seem overly crowded, we seemed to wait a very long time between getting drinks, ordering the meals, but the worst was between dinner and dessert. And then getting the bill. I do want to say that when we were attended to the waiters and waitresses were very friendly and I don’t want to take away from them . But, we probably should’ve skipped dessert and just left. However, I would definitely come back because the food was good and the pizzas were wonderful. I just hope that they upgrade the wait times !!
