Lived in Longmont for many years and never tried this place. We finally checked it out last year and the dish i had was really good. Ive been back 4 times since and I’ve been let down every time, even with the dish i got the first time. I keep trying new dishes to see if I can find something that I like but cant seem to find it. Today I tried their chicken piccata. This is one of my favorite Italian dishes but their version of it is pretty bad. Id go so far as to say it was the worst chicken piccata I’ve ever had. The chicken seemed to be boiled in the sauce which was very soupy and thin. There must have been an entire bottle of capers in the dish as well. I ate it but was really unsatisfied with it. Additionally the calamari was rubbery and very chewy. The waitress was kind enough to comp the calamari though. I wasnt looking for anything to be comped, I just wanted a good meal for lunch. I hate to leave bad reviews especially to local establishments.

To my husband for his birthday. The food was amazing and the staff were wonderful. We sat at the bar and the lovely ladies that served us were extremely pleasant and had wonderful suggestions for food and drinks. Highly recommend eating here.

I always enjoy eating here. I tried the chicken mozzarella which was very good.
My dining mate had the raviola and both of us enjoyed a nice meal.
Kudos to our server, Adam. He portrayed the genuine hospitality that a fine dining facility deserves!

Stopped by for restaurant week dinner and had a pretty good experience. We came towards the tail end of happy hour, which runs daily 3-6.
The complimentary bread, classica (moz and tomato), and meatball appetizers were all pretty good. For entrees, we ordered the lobster ravioli and linguini shrimp scampi. Both dishes were pretty good, but nothing special. The tiramisu was delicious. We ended up with more than enough food.
Happy hour drinks were decently priced at $10 for specialty cocktails, which were overall pretty tasty.
The ambiance doesn’t feel much like a nice Italian restaurant, which brings it down a notch. But the service was good.

Unattractive decor and people, even for Longmont standards. Was hoping for so much more. Tables crammed together with a bunch of wannabe yuppies? Im sure most of these people have never set foot in Italy. Doesn’t matter if chef was raised in Rome. He wasn’t cooking our dinner. My chicken picata was bland and tasted like boiled chicken with lemon water. No wine as advertised. Dinner for 4 was 200$ so really was hoping for a good dinner. Ive had the real deal and this wasn’t it. Won’t be going back. Server was marginal, when asked for some shaved parm for my dinner he wanted to charge me 4$ after my entree was 25$. He should have given me a little bit. ?? Most of these looked happy with their dinner, like beauty, everyone has their own opinion based on what they have been exposed to. Most of the restaurants in this area are barely ok. They are used to this standard. Yuck in my opinion. I have travelled the world and this experience was subpar.

Our food was delicious-large portions.
Our server Troy was wonderful and helped us navigate the menu for our appetizer and dinner choices-it was our first time having dinner there.
We will definitely return.
The restaurant was very clean and had a good casual atmosphere

A casual and well-rounded experience. The duck special was great. It was hard to choose from the extensive menu but: the seafood scampi, chicken/veal parmigiana, and ravioli were all recommended. Prices are very fair and reservations are easy. The hazelnut chocolate mousse dessert was amazing. Brandon served us and did a great job. Really nice night out.

I was craving good italian food and decided to give this place a try. It was crowded but we were seated right away. Service was good. The food was ok. The artichoke we had for an apptizer was impossible to cut through let alone chew. I order the spaghetti and meatballs and honestly the meatballs were pretty good.

What a treasure! I wish I lived closer (WI) so I could try every single menu item. As soon as I walked in the smell was glorious. The staff was attentive, our waitress Victoria was so friendly and sincerely interested in our experience. The food was some of the best Italian I’ve had since Italy. The friend who brought me said she and her family have never had a bad meal, and they each had 2 or 3 favorites. After 4 days of an intense work training, it was literally soul nourishing.

Been wanting to try this place and finally did! Solid Italian fare. Went with a group, and everyone was quite happy with their meal. Some got the parrapardelle special and they really liked it. I got the rigatoni salsiccia and it was very good. As the wait staff described, and very homey comfort food style pasta. The homemade sausage was delicious. My friend got the Zuccha ravioli (butternut squash), as it is their favorite.
The calamari app was good with the dipping sauce. The brussel sprouts app was cooked properly, but it was a bit under seasoned. Still tastey.
The wait staff was friendly, and their recommendations on the dishes and the wine were knowledgeable.
Good wine list. Open floor plan but it wasn’t too noisy.
I would definitely go back. Enjoyed it.
