    We were a party of 4 for a 12:30 lunch. We had a reservation for the upper deck overlooking the water. The table was perfect but upon a couple of minutes we realized that the noise level from a large party was too much for us. We requested to be moved to another table which was accommodated and we sat on the deck outdoors. It was perfect. Towards the end of our lunch, it began to drizzle but was virtually unnoticeable with the large umbrella. Service staff were friendly and attentive, and we were not rushed. Food was very good and prices were very fair.

    Their pizza is unique, so different than virtually any in our region, because it is faithful to the Italian district from where the owners hail from. Great food, very thoughtful service, and a nice vibe.
