I had high hopes for this place based on all the positive reviews, but unfortunately I was really disappointed.

The ambiance is very nice, especially considering it’s tucked behind a strip mall. That’s probably the highlight of the experience. When we arrived, there was no one at the host stand. After waiting a few minutes, someone who seemed like a runner or assistant waiter eventually came over. We had a reservation and were initially offered a high-top; when we asked for a regular table, it felt like an inconvenience, though they did seat us.

We were brought bread, butter, olives, and an oily eggplant caponata. We booked through OpenTable because we had an $80 reward card, and the restaurant advertises a prix fixe menu prominently on its website. However, we were never offered the prix fixe menus, and we noticed no other diners were either. It felt intentionally hidden. When we asked for it, the waiter (Hector) seemed annoyed.

We ordered eggplant rollatini and shrimp appetizers, and the angry chicken parm as our entrée. It became clear that ordering off the prix fixe menu means noticeably smaller portions. Two pieces of eggplant rollatini instead of three, about a third of a normal shrimp appetizer portion, a very small piece of chicken parm, and a small cannoli. At $55 per person, that’s steep for what you get.

The chicken parm was thin, burnt, and came out slightly cold. Easily a 2 out of 5. They also charge for soft drink refills, which genuinely surprised me. I eat out often, and it’s extremely rare to see that these days.

To make matters worse, when we tried to use the OpenTable reward card, the waiter said he’d never seen one before and told us there was no manager on duty. We were told we couldn’t use the card and had to put the entire bill on a credit card instead.

Between the unfocused service, poor handling of the prix fixe offering, and food that didn’t live up to expectations, this was a miss for us. I wouldn’t return and wouldn’t recommend it, which is disappointing given how promising it initially seemed.

Absolutely fantastic service. Great bartender who made the best old fashioned. Dinner was amazing. The potato croquettes appetizer were light and fluffy with a crisp coating. The angry vodka chicken parm was incredible. The oversized cavatelli and broccoli was just as delicious. We will definitely put this place in rotation.

I had heard about this place from my daughters friend and decided to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary here . What a hidden gem ! Located on the back side of a strip mall in Warren . Such a beautiful ambiance definitely a good date night spot . They have a full bar and plenty of seating . We went on a Wednesday night around 5:30 and it wasn’t too busy at the time but by the time we left they were almost a full house . The staff were super friendly and attentive. The menu has plenty of delicious choices and they offer specials as well.

I’m all about the appetizers so me and my eldest daughter ordered several to share as our meal . We had the artichoke salad ( fell a little short in the flavor department could have probably used a balsamic glaze to elevate the flavor ) but the special truffle lunetta OMG so good petite raviolis and truffle butter cream sauce . We also ordered the seafood tower for 2 which was served with raw oysters and clams and jumbo shrimp and chunks of crab meat . We also tried the grilled octopus specials served with fingerling potatoes. My husband tried the pork chop which was about 2 inches thick and cooked to perfection tender and had great flavor. My youngest ordered the tagliatelle pasta which was cooked slightly al dente and served in a tomato cream sauce it was delicious . Our meal was simply delicious and we enjoyed the atmosphere. I will definitely come back to try some of those other delicious sounding dishes . They are celebrating their 15 year anniversary! Cheers to many more !

Loved this place so much, so went back for a special celebration. The food and drink were excellent, and the table service superb. However, when we entered the restaurant, the host looked at us as if we had 3 heads! No warm greeting. No smile. I had to greet him! Very unfriendly to be the host of such a fine restaurant. I also noticed that the restaurant “regulars” seem to receive preferential treatment! The host, who didn’t greet us, was falling all over the table next to us!!
All in all, the food and table staff/service well-surpassed the poor first impression we received.

They were very busy on a Saturday but we got seated, thankfully. Our server and the service was great, prompt and attentive; all appetizers ordered were very tasty, our favorite were eggplant rolatini and calamari. Main dishes were good as well, had a problem with one dish but it was taken care of! Desert was great! I highly recommend this place for either a dinner or celebration!

We came here specifically for the weekly Saturday night skirt steak special, only to be told at 7:00 PM on a Saturday night that they had already run out. That’s extremely poor planning. If you advertise a weekly special, you should have enough to last through normal dinner hours. When we brought this to the waitstaff’s attention, there was no apology, no effort to make things right – the staff acted like this was completely normal and was not at all concerned.

To make matters worse, the chicken my husband ended up ordering was rubbery, and the sweet and sour calamari was served with very little sauce.

Overall, a very disappointing experience and not a place we’ll be rushing back to.

Steak made exactly how I like it and tasty cocktails/wines by the glass. Great date night spot. I recommend ordering the gnocchi entree as a starter to share!

Excellent food, service and ambiance. Love the decor with touches of gold. The gold lamps on the table are adorable and not too bright! The bar when you walk in is huge and with a few TV’s, you can come here for any mood: you want a cocktail and app at the bar to watch the game or a for a nice upscale sit down dinner. We tried everything, every dish was incredible. The truffle gnocchi is fluffy and out of this world! Steak, meatballs and shrimp appetizer were incredible. Obviously the angry chicken park is a staple – where else are you getting that? – is served with a diff presentation too on the cutting board. Highly recommend and about to be our new go to spot.

The food and hospitality here are hands down a fantastic experience. This is a generational family owned experience that should not be missed. The food portions are quite large but absolutely delicious. I had the lasagna, truffle gnocchi, seafood risotto, espresso, and tiramisu. All were fantastic, and if in the area, this is a must try. THANK YOU, Chef Joseph Gramaglia, Anthony Gramaglia at A&G Deli for the food and hospitality can’t wait to be back.

A wonderful, higher end Restaurant tucked away in an unassuming location in a modest sized strip mall shopping center. Excellent food with excellent service and a beautiful bar. They offer a range of dry age steaks, seafood and other Italian food.
