    Salad came out before appetizers but both were good. The marinara sauce tasted like it came directly form a can

    I have tried to make reservations here twice on Open Table. Both times, I have arrived at the restaurant to be told that "no one has checked the Open Table reservations in a while" and I would need to wait 30 minutes or more for a table. It is very frustrating to make plans to have dinner at a certain time only be told that the business could not honor my reservation.

    Love the piano player on the weekends. Enormous portions of chicken parm. Excellent Mediterranean salad. Solid prices.

    Give it a try--the enormous salads, delicious cheese bread, surprisingly great (but a bit garlicky) chicken piccata...all excellent.

    The bread and pasta are very good, service was very nice and helpful. Their Ceasar salad is not a Ceasar salad, good just not what was expected. The piano player was a nice touch.

    First time here for 3 of our group. They loved the veal Parmesan, Asiago Chicken dish and the reliable garlic cheese bread. Wedge salad delightful. Service is attentive. Give this place a try!
