Everything is made from scratch and it is evident in the flavor of the food. The small plates themselves were already enough to have me come back in the future. Pasta was al dente. Our server was kind and attentive. The restaurant is next to the mall entrance so you will be seeing all the hustle & bustle of the mall-goers coming and going.

Service was quite slow. We were seated in the bar area even though we had a reservation. It was loud. The portions are quite small. My 14 year old has to order 2 pasta dishes just to be satisfied. Spent nearly $300 for dinner for 4 people. Kind of ridiculous.

I meet up with my prior working colleagues a few times a year and decided on meeting up here. All I can say is that the food, ambiance, and service was amazing! I was bragging to my husband about it and he’s excited to try it out, hopefully next week! Lol the truffle garlic bread is soooo good! It’s a MUST!

The food had a good taste but it came to the table on the cool side. Boyfriends pasta was very hard. The service was good. The manager took our deserts off the bill. I would dine again to give the restaurant another chance.
