Food Quality

Pros:

  • "This was some of the best Italian food I've ever had."
  • "The food was INCREDIBLE."
  • "The fresh gnocchi was also very special, and the tiramisu was light and delicious without the strong alcohol taste and moisture that you get sometimes."
  • "Everything I’ve ever gotten here has been delicious, especially the butternut squash ravioli."
  • "The food was amazing and they have gluten free pasta if you need it."
  • "The food is fantastic every time."
  • "The food was amazing, the staff was amazing and the owner (I believe) made my mom’s night!"

Cons:

  • "It was one of the blandest sauces I have ever tasted."
  • "We personally didn't like the dessert - it had a chalky/gritty texture that was hard to get over."
  • "The Shrimp was way overcooked, to a point where it tasted like soap."
  • "The food was very underwhelming."
  • "The margherita pie for the table came out almost cold, and was underwhelming."
  • "The seafood risotto- it tasted like frozen food from a bag. Pretty disgusting."
  • "The fettuccine tasted like almost nothing, maybe a light butter and light cream with under seasoned chicken."

Service

Pros:

Cons:

  • "Had a reservation for 7:30, but they were a complete disorganized mess as soon as we entered the door."
  • "Our waiter however left a lot to be desired. We felt rushed although when we arrived inside was very sparse."
  • "Service was really bad."
  • "Half the time it didn't even seem like we had a waiter... our plates stacked up and we weren't getting refills as frequent."
  • "Waited 30 min for reserved table for birthday dinner. Reminded hostess of birthday dinner to acknowledge person at the end of the night, completely disregarded and instead sang happy birthday to table next to us."
  • "Service today was especially not great. Our server disappeared for a long time."

Ambiance

Pros:

  • "Loved the tranquility of the environment, the atmosphere the natural lighting its window doors bring into the environment."
  • "The environment was sophisticated and I enjoyed the Italian spirit in the service and in the food."
  • "Lovely dim ambiance with great food."

  • "The whole restaurant sang happy birthday, THE ENERGY WITHIN WAS HOMELY AND FUN."
  • "The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the food is consistently outstanding."
  • "The atmosphere is very warm and staff are very friendly, makes you feel like your are part of a family."

Cons:

  • "Just a mass of people jammed in and around the front of the restaurant and at the bar."
  • "The decor is dark at all hours and it's a big step up to get into the main entrance."
  • "Seating in the first room was cramped."
  • "Difficult to get a waiters attention and a long wait for food which was quite honestly less than mediocre."
  • "The dining area could've been a bit cleaner."
  • "It was so dark inside (despite it being bright and sunny out) that it didn't really take away from the experience."
  • "Some are better than others, but we all know that in these cold, dry months, a ceiling light with an open door will not keep your lower extremities warm."
