Visited solely for the pasta flight and it absolutely lived up to the hype! The service was amazing and our waitress was wonderful. Highly recommend if you want fresh handmade pastas! We also had an appetizer salad and the garlic bread, all great… that pasta flight is just next level!

The food was ok but nothing to warrant going back. Service was good but the kitchen needs work. Pasta wasn’t al dente it was way under cooked. Spice levels for the Cacciatore were crazy two of our party couldn’t eat it it was so spicy. Plus for a table of 4 the first two dinners arrived 15 min before the next two were served. That is bad kitchen management.

Our server was attentive, but not overly so. We ordered the short rib lasagna and the bolognese. Both were good but a bit oily.

Adam made sure we had everything and nothing was overlooked. Very attentive, but overly so, staff. Smiles all around. The flight of pasta was very delicious and the desserts were perfect! Parking could be addressed better
