    Would highly recommend this establishment. Lovely ambiance, great service, and delicious food! We got the calamari and seafood chowder as apps, both great, would do the chowder if I had to pick one. We had the gnocchi and braised beef as entree. Both entrees were excellent, the gnocchi texture and the creamy sauce on the gnocchi were the star of that dish, didnt care much for the sausage. The braised beef was perfectly cooked, a nice hearty meal. The portions were decent, we were both stuffed by the tine we got our entree, had to pass on dessert this time around. Looking forward to trying other menu items and the in-house brownie Sunday.

    Fantastic experience. The young gentleman working the bar where we were seated was very kind and professional. He did not make us feel rushed . He was helpful explaining portion sizes as well. The chicken parm amazing, penne in vodka sauce one of best sauces I ever tasted , and the mozzarella sticks-craving them today. Will be back , as soon as I can get another reservation. Highly recommend…worth the wait.

    Even though all the communication from open table showed reservation was for 4, restaurant said it was for 2. They were able to accommodate us. Restaurant was chilly when we were first seated. Also didn't like the fact that you need to provide credt card at the time of reservation in Opentable and woud be charged if we cancelled within 24 hours of reservation time. Sickness and other unplanned events can happen.
