We celebrated my friend’s birthday meal here. The staff was nice and the space is a homey Italian restaurant. I enjoyed my pasta dish of pappardelle with sausage and tomato sauce, but my friend’s cavatelli with broccoli was pretty bland, from what she reported. The salads were good for sharing. Portions are quite big here, so it’s good value.

We came here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was popping. It seems to be a very popular place with the locals and the food did not disappoint. It was very authentic Italian and there were so many options and specials to choose from as well. We tried the peach burrata special as well as a shrimp risotto and a sun dried tomato whole wheat pasta. It was really very tasty, the sauce was amazing on both dishes and the quality of the food was perfect. The handmade pasta was so good. I wish I lived closer I would definitely be coming back.

8/21/25 – We called ahead to see if they could seat us and they did have a table available. It seems it is better though to reserve ahead. Our server was okay. She came maybe 4 times and then others instead had to help us, like refilling our water, asking for boxes, and getting the bill. The crowd did end up picking up though which is why I think our service slowed down. It seemed we were bothering others when asking for a box/the check as well. When the guy gave us the check he kind of just threw it on the table, didn’t even say anything when putting it on the table and walked away. We came from out of town and I get really bad travel anxiety so I didn’t have much of an appetite. My plate basically looked full. I felt the same guy that gave us the check kept giving me a death stare with my plate so full. The guy that brought our food out was the friendliest out of everyone.

The atmosphere is really nice though (besides feeling like we were annoying the employees) and love the aesthetic. When going to the bathroom you kind of walk into the prep area/kitchen and was kind of cool to feel apart of the kitchen.

The food was pretty good. My husband got the Chicken parm and ate his whole plate. My dad got a special they had with pork ribs I believe. The waitress stated they have the best pork ribs. My dad liked it but mention it was a little dry. I got the chicken strips with balsamic vinaigrette with mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. The flavoring was really nice on the chicken. I also got the cauliflower soup that kind of remind me of tomato bisque with veggies in it. They also bought a whole loaf of bread prior to food which was delicious.

Overall was pretty good but wish service was little better.

Very disappointing $50 lunch here. $38.95 for 5 poorly prepared scallops. No sear whatsoever and kind of mushy. If I thought the kitchen could have done a better job, I would have sent them back. I will not be returning here.

I had a wonderful experience here! The food was absolutely perfect and the service couldn’t have been better – friendly, attentive, and professional. The only minor downside was the noise level, but of course that’s not something the restaurant can control. Overall, highly recommended!

Great experience with family! Ordered a wide variety of foods: salads, calamari, tortellini soup, pork chop special (FANTASTIC), ravioli, pappardelle, etc. everything was so fresh and nicely seasoned for an Italian restaurant!

Service was also fantastic as across the staff they all communicated well and were super attentive! Dessert and drinks also paired amazingly! Highly recommend their martinis!

Absolutely phenomenal experience!
The food was incredible — fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every dish came out better than the last. The staff was warm, attentive, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. You can tell the team truly cares about their guests.

A special shout-out to the owner, who is not only welcoming but genuinely passionate about the restaurant. Their presence and hospitality made the experience even more memorable.

If you’re looking for amazing food paired with exceptional service, this is the place. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a great find. Parking was tough but you can park at the bank. Nice atmosphere but a bit noisy. The food was amazing and so was the staff. The veal chop special was out of this world. And you can’t forget the fresh pasta . We had the homemade rigatoni. It was delicious. They have a full menu of specialty drinks including martinis along with a large wine list and top shelf liquor.

Love this place. Every time I am in the area I have to go and eat there. From the moment you enter the restaurant you feel like you are welcomed by a family member. The food is really nice (never heard anyone I went with said they were not happy with the food) and the service is as good. I defo recommend this place!
