Rustic Southern Italian kitchen with strong influence from Tuscany. All professional staff with over 30 years experience."It is most certainly a gourmet establishment with a menu from top to bottom that is exquisitely creative with tastes and flavors and choices that make selections so joyously difficult--and with a wine list to match food and pocketbook. Consider this the now best Italian restaurant in the state. Three cheers for Biagio the chef.""Concealed jewel, but easily accessible off the parkway. Esteemed staff that goes about taking care of your every need, especially the maitre d'. Exceptional menu with meals that make you crave for more. The homemade pasta dishes are unequaled to any place in the state. This is an elite restaurant that I will entertain my family and my business clients at. Head chef will go above and beyond his means for satisfaction of customer."

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.
