    Was seated quickly at a very nice booth and our waitress took our drink order. The food came minutes later, it was excellent,we both enjoyed our meal , both had pasta. This was our third time having lunch there it is one of the finest restaurant in the area. We do not live close so this is our number one choice for something good to eat.

    Service and ambience were wonderful. The meatballs were delicious, however our salads had huge whole leaves of lettuce that we had to cut multiple times. The pasta was too Al Dente and in terms of flavor was just okay. Overall it’s a decent place to try.

    It was lovely but over-priced. Many of the menu items were unfamiliar. We would have preferred to see more local favorites. Not everything needs to be covered in one kind of sauce or another.

    Overall a very good dining experience. Our server was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. One member of the party had the ravioli, one spaghetti and meatballs, and two had the tagliatelle with lobster. All of the dishes were excellent particularly the tagliatelle. We had a variety of appetizers which were all very good. The portions were large and if you are having appetizers. the half portions of the pasta are more than adequate. Prices are moderate to a little high particularly for dished like the veal chop. Definitely a good restaurant for a weekday outing or for a special occasion.

    Food and service were great. Service was attentive but not intrusive. Good pace on getting drinks, then appetizers then main course. Presentation of food was excellent, portion sizes very good. Sad to hear that they are doing away with half portions of pasta dishes. Would definitely reccomend for family dinners, or date nights

    Wednesday at 7pm. Busy but not terribly. Dustin took our drink order - Aperol spritz and glass of wine-and asked if we knew what we wanted. Bad Sign! Sure enough, the Frito Misto came in a couple of minutes but no cocktails. Like to have a cocktail BEFORE dinner, so we waited and looked at the appetizer. Finally my wife said “I think our drinks are coming”. She saw Dustin with our drinks on a tray but he stopped at the server station and was typing on the computer screen. Waited a couple of minutes and when my wife said “I think he is writing the great American novel”, I turned around to watch. Sure enough, two drinks on a tray sitting next to the computer where he was tapping away. Waited another minute and I finally got up and went to the server station. Asked Dustin if by any chance those were our drinks, When he said yes I picked them up and started to go back to our table. He got angry, telling me that he was very busy and if I wanted his job I could have it. I told him that I would not put in the appetizer order before I served the cocktails, at which point he threw his metal serving tray on the ground. I think he might be in the wrong line of work. Our new server was Sheppard and everything went well. Frito Misto had cooled off but still was very good and perfectly fried. Chicken Scarparletto was very tasty. Cacio e pepe was average - one big tasty clump of pasta. Spaghetti with crab seemed more like a vodka sauce rather than the light sauce we remember from past visits. No sign or taste of the Calabrian chilies. In case you wonder, no apology from Dustin and no visit from a manager. Guess they are used to hissy fits from Dustin. Sheppard was efficient and attentive and could not have been nicer. Gave her a 20+% tip in cash and hope she did not share it. Have had better experiences (food and service) at the Market Square location.
