    Everything we got was very delicious (chicken parm, spaghetti and meatballs, vodka chicken, lobster ravioli). Family friendly but still fairly quiet. Service and food was very timely. I just got back from Italy and I can say this place was very authentic while still being American-friendly. Would definitely eat here again.

    The food was quite underwhelming—bland and forgettable, with nothing that stood out

    Food was very salty. The first bites were great but the more we ate the saltier it got.

    Really nice dinner. Excellent pastas and veal dish was very well prepared. The service was good and we did not feel rushed, despite it being a very busy Saturday night. The only downside was being literally on top of the table next to us.
