Met friends at the bar area they had the happy hour specials. I was late. Took a few minutes to be noticed by bar tender, not very welcoming, no smile no high how are you. Didn’t ask if I wanted a drink just are you ready to order. I said yes I am and I would like a water. I ordered my meal which was salon lemoncello, med and my vegetables plain with nothing on them. It came out salmon perfect and delicious, veggies had sauce on them. I asked her for new ones without anything on them. So she brought me a small plate to take away the ones on my plate and I said you want me to take them off my plate, I’m not doing that. So the veggie was broccolini. Absolutely horrible, they were so hard and just terrible, which I told her, she offered nothing else. So that’s all I got with that meal, salmon and broccolini. $32.00, not worth it!! Will go back for happy hour and not the dinner!

It surely ain’t Carrabba’s. I’m a millionaire and even I was pretty shocked by the tiny portion size of Chicken Alfredo for $32 considering the quality of food.
Food was only ok. No bread to go with the meal when ordering take out. The chicken breast was top notch, but the Alfredo sauce was low quality. We won’t be back.

Great place! We ventured in for a little date night and absolutely loved it! They didn’t have a lemon drop martini on the menu, but they still made me one that was soooo good! Glad they weren’t weird about making something that wasn’t on their drink menu like other places I have been. We had meatballs, salads, and shared a pizza. Had a great time sitting at a high top around the bar area while the Penguins were playing. Great night! Will moat certainly be back!

Where do I even begin!?! We came to this location last night with family for dinner. We ordered a few different pizzas and the vodka pasta with chicken added. All I can say is wow! The pizza was outstanding, all of the flavors complimented each other, & the crust was crispy & fluffy. The pasta was rich & creamy. The chicken was grilled to perfection & juicy. Where we were sat, we could watch the chef slice off the fresh prosciutto & make homemade mozzarella & pizzas! Our service was spectacular from start to finish! We ordered a bottle of wine and it was presented perfectly. 10/10! We will definitely be back!

My $14 wedge salad was great but my wife’s chicken parm pasta was way under cooked not enough sauce on it hardly coated the pasta chicken just ok ,the fried Zucchini was OK but way over breaded no bread or salad with any pasta you have to order it separately waitstaff fine but food just fair our first visit was better she had eggplant parm lots sauce. no butter or salad everything is extra even things that are cheap food cost wise i mean they give you a little plastic cup with 2 table spoons of Parma cheese! Place is overpriced for what you get averaged $70 for the 2 us plus $20 tip really don’t see it being here in a year too inconsistent and are we Restaurant professionals we eat out 3 or more times a week. we wont go back except maybe for lunch salads cuz they use fresh head lettuce not crappy spring mix

We checked in at 7:15 on a Saturday night, we were told that it will be 20 minutes wait. We were asked to be seated after 1 hour of wait and all they had was a table next to a bar and it was very loud there. We politely asked if we could be seated on a table in dinning area and we offered to wait even. We saw many tables open at the time.
The girl who was trying to seat us flatly refused. She talked to guy ( might be the manager) if bar area is louder as she did not trust my choice. The manager seemed to be quite indifferent and did not care if we could be seated on a better place. We ended up leaving that place without eating.

Outstanding service (Courtney was great!) and so glad we came. First time here and very accommodating staff. We got spicy calamari to start, then chicken parm w/added sausage, 4 cheese pizza, tagliatelle with meatballs, and a kid’s sausage pizza. The portions are larger than they look. My daughter was so envious of the sauce and sausage on my spaghetti, they made us a quart with sausage as a takeout order. The kids both enjoyed a gelato before we left.

It only opened two or three weeks ago, but since it’s another outpost from an existing place, they should not have opening problems, and on our recent visit, we did not experience any. It’s nice to see this area getting more restaurants that will draw more people and this one will likely draw a continuous crowd both because it serves well-known and crowd-pleasing American-Italian fare, and because the food is good. That is not to say that there are not problems though, but I will address those later.
Four of us made reservations and came out for dinner. We tried an appetizer, pizza, main dishes, wine, and dessert to give us the whole gamut of the experience. For the appetizer, we went for the Arancini which we all liked, but would have definitely liked to see the rice mixture include peas. The pizza is supposed to be a specialty of the house and they feature a wood-fired over with a pizza station right in the corner of the dining room. Again, we liked the Margharita pizza we got, but we all thought the crust was way too salty.
For the main dishes, we tried the Chicken Parmesan based on the waitress’s recommendation and it was very good. We also went for the Branzino which was very well done. Interestingly, it was described as coming with “seasonal vegetables” and it came with Asparagus on the side – which is hardly in season in late October. Finally, we tried the Chicken Vesuvio. This was not too successful as the chicken was overcooked. For desserts we had the bread pudding (delicious!) and Cannoli – which was just OK. Portions sizes were adequate with the exception of the Chicken Parmesan and the bread pudding.
As you can see from above the food ranged from OK to really good. There were some problems though. The biggest one is built in to the location. They chose not to put any sound dampening material in the industrial ceiling which meant that all sounds reverberated throughout the room. We could barely hear each other and the waitstaff had to scream at us to be heard. This is really not acceptable.
Second problem was with the wine service. We picked a bottle of wine from their wine list. When it arrived, it was not what we asked for, so we sent it back. The second time it came, it was also not what was on the menu, so we sent it back again. This time, we asked for a different wine. It came – wrong again! The manager came over and apologized for the mistake in printing the menu. Huh? Ok, mistakes happen. We accepted the wine and moved on. However, that is not really good.
Third problem is that we ended up spending around $80 per person for this meal. While it did include wine and three courses, that is on the upper end for a place with as many problems and for food that was just a little above the good rating. For that price, I would want to have been wowed by the experience AND the food.

We were blessed to be sat in Geno’s section. While the food was spectacular, the service was over the top. My only warning is it does get busy, so be sure to make a reservation

So excited to try this new spot in bridgeville! Though I will say it’s a little confusing that the google maps title has “market square” in the name…
The vibes and decor are fantastic, full stop. From the European-style heated terrace to the gorgeous light fixtures, floor tiles, and custom pizza oven, it’s clear that a lot of care went into the design and it paid off.
My Negroni was top notch and they have wonderful collection of wines by the bottle for only $30 that we really appreciated.
Service was phenomenal – staff was friendly and patient and welcoming of our baby!
Now onto the not so great part- the food was just disappointing. We got a Margherita and diavolo pizza and rigatoni with meatballs. I’m afraid they don’t know what a “Margherita pizza” actually is and I would suggest someone there just google it. I was served a simple American-style cheese pizza with a couple basil leaves which was sad but not even the worst part – the sauce had literally no flavor, no tartness or sweetness or juicy bite, it was like it wasn’t even there. And the dough was dry and took up way too much of the pie, like every slice had two bites of topping and the rest was flavorless, dry dough. On thé pasta it was clear that the meatballs were of very low quality which was also disappointing, but at least the marinara had some good flavor.
Overall some room for improvement but I would gladly return to enjoy their drinks and give the appetizers a go.
