    We visited this restaurant for a birthday celebration, and from the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service throughout our meal. Both the server and manager were attentive, checking in regularly to ensure we were comfortable. As we weren’t familiar with the dishes we ordered, the manager kindly took the time to explain how to enjoy them, which was greatly appreciated. The entire staff was incredibly friendly, and the food was outstanding. The whole fried fish is a must-try, and the ribeye and chili oil wontons were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this place for any occasion. Thank you, NUE, for such a memorable and enjoyable experience!

    The service was fantastic! The garlic bread, penne pasta, Zucchini and Eggplant, Chicken Parm dishes were delicious! At 4:30 pm on a Saturday, they were already out of the Rockfish entree. The meatballs were very mediocre. Not like Nonna’s! We will definitely go back and, hopefully, get to try the Rockfish and other delicious dishes.
