★★★★☆ 4.0 Odd Salamander · Oct 2025

I think my only “complaint” about this place is that they close pretty early for the location they have. 8pm on a weekend in downtown is kind of wild. But everything else was great. The service was super friendly, the food was great, the prices weren’t too bad. Overall I was very satisfied, especially considering there was very little traffic in there during typical dinner hours on a weekend. The Greek lemon chicken soup was flavorful and light, the serving size for it was perfect as a side. The chicken piccata was exactly as the server described: light and fresh and flavorful. I wish it had a little extra chicken but not enough to where I would consider it any kind of complaint. I found the Caprese interesting with feta cheese instead of mozzarella but I enjoyed it with the prosciutto.

★★★★★ 5.0 Justin Villareal · Feb 2026

Food is great and the price is fair and it came with fries and pita bread. Very satisfied with the employees with the order for the Fettuccine Alfredo for $16.43. It had mushroom, carrots, and cucumbers with parsley with the noodles and Alfredo sauce.

★★★★★ 5.0 Terri Salstrom · Feb 2026

The food was delicious! The head cook very accommodating with dietary needs. Had calamari, chicken Marsala, lamb bouchtta and garlic prawns. All worth ordering again. Salad dressing for house salad needs a little less vinegar. Other wise we will be back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Yuehesi Castaneda · Feb 2026

I almost cried after receiving my food because it was THAT good. Everything was absolutely delicious and service was AMAZING! It felt like I was at someone’s house over for dinner, honestly so warm and welcoming. I believe there’s only 1 chef in the kitchen and one individual up front but they are a dream team! I’ll go back 100xs over!

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Adrean Cajigas · Jan 2026

As a gluten-free fellow, I saw that the menu offered gluten-free options for their pasta entrees. Filled with excitement, I ordered the Spinach Pesto (GF) with chicken. Not only did the food take forever to arrive, but my plate came with slices of zucchini and carrots instead of GF noodles. Had I been aware of this unusual substitute beforehand, I would've ordered something different. Moreover, the portions were small and the service was inattentive. Small place, decent atmosphere, but inconsiderately overpriced for what you're getting. Maybe the "gluten items" on the menu are better. Definitely not coming back.
