    We were in town for the night and decided to go to this restaurant. The last time we were there was 29 years ago. It had been recommended to us then and we remembered having a delicious meal. It is just as good if not better now. I had the pork chop and it was delicious. The service was excellent. The atmosphere is really nice. Highly recommend for an authentic Italian meal and wonderful dining experience.

    Ny friends and I met in Albany to celebrate after finishing up the paperwork for retirement from NY State employment. The appointment ran a bit later than expected but the restaurant was still able to accommodate us for a late lunch. Its such a nice, eclectic space and menu! Top notch service from our friendly, knowledgeable waitress. A great meal!

    The new limited menu is a bit disappointing because of the lack of options, but apparently it's a struggle to keep a kitchen running smoothly, but this seems to be the way in a post-pandemic world for some places. Beer selection is still very good. Service was fast, friendly, efficient. Reservation request was honored.
