    Fabulous food! And, really nice cocktails menu. Sadly, our dinner was delivered to another table...and they ate it. Server never came out to check on us after our dinner had been brought out from the kitchen. When the server finally showed up to deliver our pre-ordered desserts, we finally got to share that we didn't get our dinner. Finally got to enjoy our dinner more than 90 minutes after being seated. Manager was apologetic. Entire team very attentive afterwards. But, it did dampen our overall impression of this restaurant.

    Food was good. The service was poor. More waitresses are needed. The timing of food needs to improve and please provide the appropriate eating utensil with the dish and not ask every time would you like a 'spoon or fork' as it should be obvious. The room has very poor acoustics.

    Our server was wonderful, very attentive and sweet. Penne in vodka sauce wasn't very good and the shrimp we added just tasted burnt and took over the dish. Chicken parm was good but the sauce on the noodles was bland and had no flavor. calamari was good but not crisp enough for my taste. Would not go back with the other options available in the area.

    We spent 2-1/2 hours there to get our main course meal for valentines dinner. Definitely not a place to take your loved one on a special occasion

    Ruined Valentines Dinner - my worst dining experience in a long time. Our waiter was fired before we even got our appetizer! 2 hours of waiting, with little to no service. Food was average to bad. There were people complaining all around us. I will never go back. Awful. Very disappointed. Won’t last long in this town.

    Was a very good meal, they just got overwhelmed for Valentines Day and the meal took about 2 hours....would like to go another time when the holiday doesn’t stretch the kitchen too far

    We love this place but was very sorry to see that the Quattro Formaggio pasta was taken off the menu. Hands down our favorite dish. We had lamb and butternut ravioli and both were tasty. We liked our meal and will recommend.

    Waiters had obviously never waited on tables before, brought the wrong dessert to our table 3 times....brought a dessert to the table next to us before their main course arrived. It took two hours for our meal....
