Customer Reviews
We attended as a group of 8, no problem getting seated together, no issue with separate checks. I had the lasagna, it was excellent. Others had chicken fettuccine, penne pasta, minestrone soup, ravioli, and scallops. Everyone indicated that they enjoyed their meals. Waitress was great, attentive and patient while us older folks figured out what they wanted. Absolutely recommend.
Our server Kirsten was amazing and she not only managed all the tables but worked the bar as well. She made recommendations from the menu and we never waited for anything. She made us feel like we were the only table there.
The service was good, the servers were nice, and attentive. Probably the highlight of the visit. The walls have some interesting art, and the ceiling has interesting copper squares. But atmosphere is more than wall art, there was no music in the restaurant, some nice Italian tunes would have elevated the atmosphere. One other thing that was really bothering me, was the really strong odor at the entrance of the restaurant, I'm pretty sure it was an external smell, but it was so strong that I almost walked out. This has got to be the only Italian restaurant I've ever been to that didn't have pizza! That was a let down. The chicken parmesan was bland. No flavor at all. The little Italy plate was even worse! Italian food is rich in flavors, but here, even the cheese was tasteless. Not a place
I have to say that I really was surprised at just how nice of a restaurant this is especially being out in a town on the edge of Nevada. The atmosphere was wonderful, the service excellent and the food was really good too. On our visit, my wife and I dined at the bar which I should add, is really well stocked with fine wines and or for our purposes, bourbon and I should note that the pours were very generous! As an appetizer, we were served warm bread that was accompanied by a bean, garlic and oil dip that was just to die for. We both chose to get a salad with our meal and was happy to see it came with a healthy mix of dark baby greens, home made vinaigrette dressing and topped with grated parmesan and this instead of iceberg lettuce with grocery store Italian dressing in a plastic cup. As
Mixed reviews! Such a fun atmosphere with great service! Fun for adult & kids, they let you color on the paper table cloths! & There isn’t a kids menu. It’s expensive. With gratuity, it was like $35 for one person. I ordered the chicken Alfredo. It was a fair portion but the chicken tasted like fish. Unfortunately, I barely ate any because of that.
