    They appeared to be short on wait staff and it took about an hour to get all of our food (for two).

    Great garlic bread delicious food we have need our meal with espresso and cannoli! The best part was the quiet conversation inducing ambience of family and friend enjoying a meal. Not crashes, stumbling around or excessive waiting for anything, water iced and served in a lively goblet, cloth napkins plenty of room around tables for very efficient and polite waitstaff. Lovely restaurant with good management . Will become a monthly favorite.

    My husband and I had a delicious meal at this location. My husband had a huge serving of lasagne, salad, and breadsticks. He had enough left over for lunch the next day. I had Ravioli a la Vodka with salad and breadsticks. I also had a huge, delicious portion with enough to take home. this restaurant is delicious, clean, great service, and very well maintained.
