Great food, family business. Service can be hit or miss, I think like a lot of restaurants these days they are short staffed. We sat at the bar, and there was often only one bartender during a busy time. We’ve had the meatball app, stuffed mushroom app and the linguine with clams and white sauce all delish, pasta was cooked to perfect al dente. The ciabatta bread and garlic oil is delicious!

What a neat dining experience! The restaurant is set up like you are on the streets of Italy. I highly recommend the meatballs! Everything was delicious! We barely touched our main course. Lots to eat for later… fine by me, I could eat it every day! Also wanted to add that the Sweet Tea was fresh!

Went there today for their $10 lunch specials. It was delicious. I had the eggplant. It was great! Crispy & flavorful. Hubby had the pasta and meatball which he loved as well. They started us with bread and garlic olive oil. Jake was our server and he was fabulous. Super friendly and very attentive!

What a pleasant surprise. Lunch was not only delicious but inexpensive. Dawn our waitress was fun and engaging. She explained the choices and refilled drinks before they were empty. We will be back for sure.

So pleasantly surprised by this fabulous restaurant. The creative NYC decor invites you from the entrance and follows you throughout the details of every corner. The food was authentic and flavorful from the unique app variety, to home made pasta, to the freshly made dessert. Rebecca was a wonderful server. We will definitely be back again!

Food was ordered to go and was edible at best. Maybe if I ate in the restaurant it would’ve been better. Really disappointed in what we ordered. Nana must be rolling over in her grave because the chicken and sausage soup was fishy tasting and watery. The ricotta fritters were balls and maybe tasted ok but the marinara was flavorless. The Alfredo tasted like something from a jar and the bolognese was dry and even after doctoring it with extra garlic powder and salt it still was barely palatable, only tasted of wine. Have had good food from this restaurant in the past and it was amazing back in the day. As one authentic Italian to another…the price I paid for this sub par meal I could’ve made myself 10 times better and fed an entire family!! Do better!! Will not be patronizing this place again! Severely disappointed!

First time we had visited.
The pasta is made fresh, the bread was warm and delicious.
We ordered lasagna, very good and HIGHLY recommend. Chicken parm which my husband said was very good.
Service was excellent.
Thank you to the management team and please thank everyone behind the scenes. The chief who created the food, did an outstanding job.
The price of the meals were very reasonable.
Our waitress stated they offer a buffet every Sunday from noon to 3 pm.
We will definitely be back.

Went last night for a birthday dinner, and was completely blown away! The environment was absolutely gorgeous and the food was amazing. I’ve seen other reviews about portion sizes being small, that’s absolute nonsense. I was in a party of 7 and everyone had to go boxes. The staff was great and everything was superb. They did forget a key ingredient in a meal but quickly recovered (the chef was off and they were very busy). I’ve already sent messages to friends and family about them having to go try it out. So happy to find an authentic Italian restaurant!

My bartender/waitress was tremendous!!! My gosh she waited tables tended bar. Jeez,and she was right on with drinks,extra requests for us. I believe her name is Krystal. She even bused our table so we can sit quickly. Along ,with the live music, it was a great time. To management, give her a little help or a tremendous raise!!!
