What’s more perfect than a Joe’s Special? Adding eggplant parm to the order. Calamari, house salad, breadsticks, everything was on point.

The food was excellent. We went for Restaurant Week and enjoyed appetizers, entrees, and dessert. Everything was delicious. Meatballs and Arancini appetizers were fabulous. The chicken parm sandwich and stromboli were both very tasty and so generous that I'm going to have three meals out of it. But the absolute highlight was the gelato! We tried strawberry, pistachio, and vanilla and all three of us were wowed! I wouldn't recommend going for lunch if you need a quick turnaround to get back to work. The service was a bit on the slow side. Since it was our first visit, it's hard to say if it was our waiter or if the entire restaurant is like that. I will say that our waiter seemed very green. The other minor comment is that it's quite loud. Depending on what type of talker is sitting at the next table, it may be hard to hear the conversation at your own table.

Food was great, Robert (our server) was particularly good, seated per our reservation with no wait. A little noisy, but I could still hear conversation at table. Nice experience!

Our waiter was excellent and helped us choose a wine to go with dinner. Everyone at the table thoroughly enjoyed their meal. I had the tortellini with Pomodoro sauce. It was excellent handmade tortellini that was very flavorful, delicate, and perfectly cooked. We will definitely be going back.

This is our favorite place in town. Intimate, quiet, beautiful ambiance. The food is so fresh and truly quality. The garlic knots with feta sauce will change your life! My husband does a custom ravioli with pesto and sausage everytime, because its the best he's ever had anywhere! I usually order the Caesar with grilled chicken, but I've also has their famous spinach and artichoke calezone and the Old Town pizza. You just can't go wrong at this place. Renee is usually our server, and even if she's not, she always stops to chat. Such lovely people. It's the perfect place for an anniversary dinner, date night, girls lunch, etc.

I have the special Italian salmon tonight with pasta. It was delicious. The owner was at the door tonight greeting us. It’s always a pleasure to see her. John was our server and was as hospitable as ever. See you in a couple weeks . RP Auman
