Everyone was amazing on the serving staff from the Hostess to the bartender to the incredible server Roberta. The manager was solicitous and attentive. The wine was other worldly and the food obscenely delicious. Cannot wait to take more of my family there

The overall experience was okay, but I won't go back. Some of the food was only luke warm and a bowl of plain pasta with olive oil was ridiculously overpriced at $19. A few bright spots - the gelato and tiramisu were delicious and the fried artichokes were well prepared. It was pretty noisy at 5pm, I can't imagine how noisy it gets later in the evening.

This is an authentic Italian restaurant, one which rival most good restaurants in Italy’s what a find! As someone who lives in Italy half the year, this restaurant deserves to be a destination. I ate there twice in three days.

I love the restaurant, really I do. Today was different. The pasta was so salty, i could not eat it. I sent it back. The replacement came and it was fine. The server was gracious and immediately rectified the situation. Just an off day I presume. It is a wonderful place!

We’ve been patronizing the restaurant since before COVID, both the restaurant and the grocery. Consistently, the food, service, and overall dining experience are excellent. On this particular occasion, there were three of celebrating a birthday. From start to finish, the service could not have been better — efficient, friendly, and helpful. All three of us had the special Branzino dish, and each had a different salad or appetizer. The dishes all exceeded our high expectations. We could not stay for dessert, but purchased a pint of the Desire gelato for consumption at home. Needless to say, the gelato was over-the-top.
