    Service was horrible. Had to get up to get the waitress to bring our drinks, refill our waters, and grated cheese for the pasta dishes. They dropped off the food and never returned. Ordered dessert and coffee, dessert came, coffee never came. Waitress came back and asked did the coffee come, we said no and to take it off the bill. Everyone knows when you have dessert, it's an automatic to put in the coffee request as well. Clearly the order was never put in. Get it together guys!! Unfortunately will not be returning any time soon..

    The location and ambiance was lovely. However, they were understaffed and our food took too long to receive. We had a reservation at 645 and didn’t leave until after 9:00. We tried to get the waiter several times but there were 2 larger parties that took his attention and there was no one else there help out. We initially had reservations outside but due to weather , we asked to move inside with no problem. The restaurant was very nice- great for some pictures. Service was the only issue we had.
