    Upon arrival our table was set up and ready to go with menus placed at each setting. Service was nice as the specials were mentioned and our water glasses were filled promptly. Our table of six each ordered something different. All the choices were enjoyed and devoured. For our birthday celebration our waitress and the saxophone player along with the hostess sang to us. A great night overall.

    If you want a steak call ahead. They run out. But don't let it discourage you from going. We had a party of 6 and all our dishes were outstanding. The owner is very attentive to his customers and went out of his way to ensure we were happy. Highly recommend you go for dinner.

    Very good, modern & classic Italian fine dining without the harumph We were in town for a CSULB event & started by searching Yelp, but nothing very good, or at least with a good description showed up I remembered Open Table & got the info I needed. 7 of us enjoyed a great meal & bottle of wine. mostly locals there, so you know it's good.

    The decor is charming and there is live music on Fri & Sat nights. The food was delicious. All 3 courses we had were excellent. It's a not to be missed restaurant.

    While the service was quick and attentive, the food was only slightly above average. We had a caprese salad (simple but well done), salmon (dry) w/ pasta, & their "signature" stuffed peppers (all bread crumbs). It's an OK Italian joint, but there are better.

    The food was good. The waiter was abrupt and bordered on rude. It was not a good place to carry on a conversation. Table were close together and you were part of the conversation at the next table. The wine list was sparse, and not a lot of variety. the food was good.

    Excellent dining experience! The linguine with clams was by far the best dish at our table...and one of the best linguine with clams I've had yet! Also the creme brulee is delicious! Yay for cold custard and a warm sugar top. Last night was my first time dining there, and I'll definitely make it back!

    This restaurant was a surprisingly nice neighborhood find. The food was excellent, and there were several items on the menu I'd like to try. Our server was also very good and made some good recommendations for food. The problem was with our wine. We ordered a bottle, and after our server poured it and we drank some of it, we realized it wasn't the bottle of wine we ordered. We called our server over, and she told us her manager or the owner, I don't remember which, gave her the bottle, told her they were out of the one we ordered, but this one was close enough. We probably would have taken it anyway, but it would have been nice to know that up front so we could decide if we wanted a different selection. Our server did have the kitchen add some profiteroles to our dessert order and apologized for the wine, which was nice. I'll definitely go back but will check the bottle of wine they bring to the table before I drink it.
