It was a nice dinner nothing special or out of the ordinary. The bread was the winner of the night. Took a little bit for the server to get to us but the service was good the rest of the night. Ally was pleasant. The desert was great too! We got the cannoli and buddy V rainbow cake from Carlos Bakery. The main pasta meals and app weren’t bad either. Overall, a good experience.
