    This was our first time eating here. The food was really great, service was perfect. The only thing I did not like was that we were seated in a back dining room. The lighting was way too bright, and there was no background music. It felt sort of like a dinner. I know it was a busy night, but if we were to go again I would ask to be seated in the main dining room. All and all though, I would recommend this place.

    Definitely wanted a better table for an "in advance reservation". It was a reservation for two and we were told all the booths were set for four, then saw other parties of two sat there. Not upset, just jealous because those tables were bigger lol! Food was really yummy and everything was cooked with care and came out in an orderly time. Totally understand how service can waver on a holiday or when it is busy!

    Wonderful experience! We had only ordered take out from here and have been wanting to come in for a meal. Went for a Sunday afternoon late lunch. Our server was delightful and the food was delicious! We can’t wait to go back.

    The gnocchi was exceptional and the calamari was a large and perfectly cooked portion.

    It’s expected to include more vegetables in their menu.
