    Kelsey our server was great. She was attentive and knew what she was doing as well as answering any questions. The food was amazing as always. Only thing the potatoes of the au gratin were a bit on the stiff side but still amazing.

    It’s been a while since I’ve been here and I was pleasantly surprised they now have house-made pasta, prepared perfectly Al dente too. Squid ink pasta and short rib pasta are the go-to’s. Prior experience with their bolognese made me not want to come back because it’s really hard to mess up bolognese. I think you just have to know what to order. Italian chopped salad also another great one to try.

    Beautiful restaurant, they were very busy the night we went, huge party going on, so service was a bit slow, but very understandable. We had the octopus appetizer, it was ok, not enough flavor for me. I had the cacio Pepe pasta, homemade pasta was so good, sauce was tasty , a bit dry, but yummy, hubby had the lobster pasta with a red sauce, so good, we ate every bit! Cheesecake was delicious, espresso martini was very strong and good! We’ll definitely go back!
