    The food and service were quite good. The post-Rose Bowl crowd made it too noisy to hear each other. If I lived in the area I’d definitely return, but I try for a calmer night.

    As you would imagine, the place was packed for NYE. We had a reservation at 7:30, arrived 15 mins early and fully expected to wait past our reservation time. We checked in with the hostess, who advised that they would come find us in the bar area when our table was ready. My husband kept checking with the hostess and each time was advised that there were 2-3 tables ahead of us. Finally at almost an hour past our reservation, we asked again as to the status of our table and we were dropped from the reservation and told that the hostess had walked through the bar, called our name and could not find us, so they moved on. This was a complete untruth, as we watched every person walk by and had them confirm the name of whom they were looking for. Ultimately, my husband asked for the front of house Manager, who was lovely and did her best to seat us quickly with a comped appetizer. Despite the error, the entrees were delicious.

    This is my favorite Italian restaurant. I’ve been dining here since the 90s. I am glad they survived Covid and the food is still just as delicious.

    We waited 45 minutes after our reservation time. After we were finally seated, 5 minutes later they asked us to move to a smaller table. They comped an appetizer. They forgot the order of the table beside us. The owner introduced himself to us, asked how our food was and shortly after he was sitting at a prime table while other customers were still waiting to be seated. This restaurant has potential, but didn’t deliver on a very busy night.

    Had to wait 25 minutes after our reservation started before we could finally be seated. The waiter was nice but misheard several of my items ordered and we didn’t realize until the food came out. Food was ok but some pasta dishes were exceptionally salty. Drinks are really expensive here, with everything starting at $25 minimum.
