    Food was absolutely amazing we had the Caprese Salad and Garlic Bread to begin with. The Caprese tomatoes were perfectly ripe. Garlic bread was perfectly crisp. Our entree's were Chicken Fettuccini had a good amount of garlic and rich in flavor. My favorite were the spinach ravioli on a bed of spinach with butter sauce. They were amazing so much flavor, would definitely return for the food. The waitress lacked personality, did her job as far as taking our order and it was accurate but zero personality. A smile would have been a good start.

    Great service from wait staff. All meals were served at the same time. Food was tasty but my rigatoni scallops were a little too salty. Otherwise other guests in the party enjoyed their dishes.

    Went for an early Mother’s Day dinner. The service & food were very good. With tip the bill was just shy of $100. That included one drink, pizza bianco, eggplant off the happy hour menu & we split a Cesar salad. Eating out has gotten way too expensive to do it other than special occasions.
