    It was a Tuesday which was wonderful as they were barely busy but it did pick up by the time we finished. Hostess and waitress were wonderful and welcoming, very happy the customers were there. My dish was okay- fettuccine chicken carbonara, it was creamy and had chicken but was lacking overall flavor- definitely missing garlic and a few other regular things. The other dish was spaghetti and meatballs, flavorful and filling. The wedge salad was perfect! I guess if you order a Caesar you have to ask for anchovies as they were not offered and it didn’t taste like they were in the dressing. Would I go back- absolutely as they have so many other dishes to choose from I would score a 7 out of 10
