★★★★★ 5.0 Elsa C Lorenzo · Dec 2025

My pear salad with grilled chicken and caramelized, crunchy pecan was toothsome😋! When I reheated the chicken at home, it was tender and same good taste. My husband was content with his salmon. Our hosts consumed their clam and lobster ravioli dishes. Our birthday celebrator and my stepson enjoyed their dinner. Service was good and polite. The ambience was nice.

Nice place to stop in and have a meal with family, a friend or that special someone. My wife and I enjoyed a late afternoon meal that started with a salad and bread that our waiter brought us who was very nice. Our main courses were very good and it was a large portion no less. There is plenty of free parking in the rear of the restaurant and by the way you will only be able to get in to the restaurant that way. So if you like ITALIAN food give this place a try.

This was my first time here & definitely not my last. I made reservations before hand just to make sure I would get a seat. I was seated right away. I knew the food was going to be good when I smelled it as soon as I walked in the door. My waitress was amazing. My food was absolutely delicious. The fried Calamari with sesame seeds was the best I have ever tasted. I had so much food left over that I have extra for tomorrow. I can't wait to come back.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Ryan S · Nov 2025

I think the reviews are a little too generous. The food is just okay. I’ve been here for family funerals, and also to eat casually. The red sauce is very watery and bland. The portions are nice. But even the personal pizzas taste like a step above a chain restaurant like Applebees. I think a lot of their business comes from people who haven’t had good Italian food. Also when we went last time we used a gift card. The waitress didn’t give us any receipt after we used the GC. Instead she wrote the amount of back of the gift card that was left. I wasn’t born yesteday. Im almost certain that she did that so we couldn’t tip from the gift card. I left cash anyways but wanted to say something to the manager. Just not a good look. But I decided not to because it wasn’t worth arguing over. Not ho

Late lunch with a quite place to eat. Decor was like old worlds Italian. Parking in rear of building. Penne alla Vodka and chicken francese with grilled vegetables and a potato. They were Delicious. Didn't need additional seasoning and cooked perfectly.
