Reviews
We called ahead because they don’t take reservations, just a call ahead. I would recommend calling an hour or more before you would like to eat. I mis- judged that based on other reviews I thought we could get in within a half hour but we had to wait an hour and 20 or so. It was definitely worth the wait. Just noting this detail for others to avoid my mistake.
Family of 4 had bread (the olive oil & basil dip was delightful, and cheese sticks (cheese pull over an arm’s length!) for appetizers, two glasses of wine and two sodas (standard) and four pasta based entrees (shrimp al limone, veal parmesan, and two chicken fettuccine alfredo) for just over $200
Pasta was fresh and perfectly cooked. Chicken with the Alfredo was over-seasoned and the al limone sauce was lackluster but shrimp were spot on (according to a teenager). Veal was perfect and the chunky marinara was spectacular!
Overall, would go again and everyone left happy & full!
Salads or sides do NOT come with the entree and must be ordered separately.
We chose to sit outside on a nice day. You can hear the go-kart track next door but it didn’t really bother us.
Started with a couple of delicious watermelon margaritas and the Mussels appetizers. Mussels in the white wine broth were really tasty!
For the entrees we tried a couple specials: lobster ravioli with lump crab meat and pan seared scallops with orzo.
Both were cooked really well, pasta was perfectly al dente and was full of lobster and crab.
The scallops were seared perfectly and came with a lime wedge and red pepper flakes. Really enjoyed it!
Highly recommend!
Also, the drinks were on point!
