We had the Soup of the Day, Caesar Salad, Meatball Sandwich, Margarita Pizza, and Ricotta Cheesecake. Everything we ordered was delicious and exceeded our expectations. The two standouts were the meatball sandwich, which came on a nice toasted and crunchy ciabatta roll, and the Ricotta Cheesecake; it was one of the best I've ever had! A++ Kevin, our server, couldn't have been nicer and attentive; our wine glasses never went dry!

I read a few reviews about the noise level but still tried the restaurant last night. The noise level was off the charts and really ruined the experience there. Food was very good, but the excessive noise from the loud music and bad acoustics made the evening very difficult.

Our server, Tristian, was excellent. Food and wine were very good. Restaurant was a little too dark, some guests had to use flash light on their phones to read the menu. I would prefer nice Italian music instead of the loud base we listened to all night.

The staff was great. We mentioned as we were seated near the door that it was chilly. We were moved to a different room and it was still chilly. We commented to the waitress who agreed with us. We ordered drinks and endured! In addition the kitchen service was a bit slow. We didn't complain as we had a lovely woman taking care of us. The restaurant was not super busy so the slowness from the kitchen was surprising. The food was delicious, the ambience was fine albeit a bit chilly. We were not the only ones who were cold as other tables around us also kept their jackets on.

The night started out as it ended. We were seated quickly to our table but we were not approached for 20 minutes. We got our first drinks and ordered our apps. One of the apps didnt even come until after our main dish came. We were never offered a second drink. We had to flag the waiter down to get a second drink then came the 30 minute wait for our check while we watched the wait, kitchen and bar staff have a lively conversation at the bar. This was no Lettuce Entertain You experience. It was an entertain yourself service experience. Thanks for a wonderful mother's day.

The food was delicious. Went with a group of four other people and we shared all our dishes. Was able to try a good amount of the menu and was more than satisfied. The portions are really good and there was so many good options on the menu. I was also pleasantly surprised they kept the happy hour deal on a Sunday!

No need to waste your time here. The cesar salad was a wilted mess with globs of dressing for two salads. The pizzas were soggy and toppings sparse and the pasta was just ok. The main problem was how hot it was inside. We were literally sweating at our table. Hot and stuffy - maybe they left the heat on despite that it was 75 outside? Far better Italian options than to come here.

Tristan, our waiter, was knowledgeable, appropriately attentive, and helpful. We had Angel Hair pasta with shrimp, a mushroom pizza, and an arugula salad with bacon. The Italian Chardonnay was delicious as well. Everything was very good, the pizza being such a tad bit toasty. Did it deter us from a lovely meal? No. We’d go back again and would hope we had Tristan as our server.

The service was very poor. We had to wait a significant amount of time for our server to come over and ask for our drink order. Then we waited several minutes again before they were delivered. Server was pleasant just very inattentive. We saw other patrons come in after us and get served quicker. When food finally came out it was lukewarm, clearly it had been sitting for some time. Then when she finally brought the check they added a “restaurant surcharge,” and she couldn’t explain to me what it was, so she removed. We will not go back.
