   This was a fun surprise. We weren’t sure what to expect of a non-chain Italian restaurant in Champlain. We went on a Saturday night, with a reservation and we’re were glad we had one. The place was packed, but they got us in promptly. The server was very knowledgeable of the menu, specials and had good wine recommendations. We chose the calamari, which was fine. The ability to add anchovies on our Cesar salads was a tasty upgrade. For the entrees, we chose the carbonara with three shrimp (fantastic) and the surf and turf with a filet and scallops. We were a little skeptical of their comparison to downtown steaks, but it was right on. It was very tender and perfectly prepared. The scallops were also good. We splurged for their toffee cake and an espresso martini for dessert. Both were delicious but the toffee cake was especially so. You can eat here very well on a budget. However with the wine, appetizer, entree add-ons and dessert, our bill was in line with downtown prices, but only 8 minutes away. We’ll be back, both for the food, and when we’re just looking for some quality dessert.

   The staff is always so friendly and accommodating, and I love that the owner walks around and actually talks to people and ask how things are and gives recommendations

   Food is so so good. Made fresh and processed still remain a good value. Live their house Chianti
