Customer Reviews
Let’s get right to it. The garlic knots were good, but they were swimming in way too much olive oil for me. I know some people like that, but I don’t. Otherwise, not a bad first food impression. It is a cozy atmosphere. The lighting is just bright enough for dinner conversations and to set a good mood. The wait staff were very friendly, very helpful and the meal came within a respectable time even though the restaurant was full. The price was also very attractive. For the portion sizes I think this is borderline cheap. All of these are high praise. However… the food while it looked good, we were not impressed. My wife ordered the chicken marsala and after two bites sent it back to the kitchen and got herself a cheese pizza instead. I got the Pappardelle Alfredo with chicken, and I was n
$2.50 secret upcharge for vodka sauce which was practically nonexistent. I got there to pick up my takeout order and she told me $20 for my chicken Parm sandwich, I said how’s that? And found out about it at that time. I get that I asked you to substitute vodka sauce, but you’re supposed to say that’ll be an additional $2.50 is that OK? At which point I say wait a minute is this Vinny’s? And then hang up because that’s where I was really trying to call. Don’t multitask at stoplights, folks. And by the way there was hardly any sauce at all, about near the driest chicken parm I’ve had. Well, never again.
I’ve been a loyal customer here for 5 years. Service has declined immensely over the years, and I say that as someone who has worked in this industry. So I no longer eat in the restaurant, I just have it delivered. Ordered the rigatoni from Doordash today and noticed it just didn’t taste right, so I decided to look a bit closer. I found not one, not two, but FIVE black hairs cooked into the food, and that was just on the top of the dish. I will not be going here again and advise others to do the same. At least check your food if you do 🤢
Went here with our big and loud Italian family. Service was incredibly kind and patient. Not one mistake with our order despite the modifications and the mind changes. The atmosphere is comfortable, clean and very cute, you really felt like you were in a business where the owner cares. Mozzarella sticks were super delicious. Not your average cheap frozen mozzarella sticks but rich and cheesy sticks with very good breading. The free garlic knots are insane. I made the mistake of filling up on them but I couldn’t help myself because they were so delicious. Their pizza was delicious, house made dough and they were not stingy with the cheese. I had the cannelloni entree. Meat filled pasta tubes with tomato sauce and béchamel. Perfect portion size. I loved it. A dish you do not often see on Ita
Went to eat here, and to say we were disappointed would be an understatement. We spent over $100 on food, which I'm not mad about it just furthers the disappointment in the food we received. I got a chicken Parm, and the chicken was undercooked. We got mozzarella sticks, and they didn't seem cooked all the way either. My fiance got a lasagna, and it looked like it was just smashed into the container. The pizza was the only thing that we actually liked. The staff was super friendly.
