    Wonderful ambiance, exceptional service by Arturo. The caesars salad, steak, chicken parmesan, thousand layer lasagna, button mushrooms, sprouts, gelato with choc/caramel sauce and chocolate mousse was delicious! Loved our time here. Also ordered the ham and bree pie drizzled with honey to go - that was yum. Overall, a solid pleasant experience. Loved the color palette, friendly vibes. The table spacing made it feel comfortable and spacious. Lovely space to have a meal with loved ones.

    We had a 7:30pm reservation for 6 to celebrate our son’s high school graduation. Service definitely made an impact on our overall dining experience as our server was working extremely hard to manage 4-6 groups. From our perspective, they were likely short at least 1 more server. The manager on duty as well as the busser stepped in to fill the gaps. Gnocchi, penne, bolognese, and calamari were prepared well. The pollo al fungi was a bit salty. These were the reasons for the 4 star review rather than 5 stars.

    Had dinner with a friend of mine and was thoroughly impressed. Maria Paula was very engaging and helpful and navigated us through the menu with ease. The Salmon was perfectly cooked and the dessert became the finale of the night. The chef recommended a gelato Sunday and it was a hit. Ive rarely seen my friend so happy. Truly a magical experience.
