    The complimentary brushetta, grana cheese, various breads and fried zucchini were all very nice. The octopus appetizer was fabulous and I really liked that you could order half portions of pasta. The bolognese sauce was the best I’ve had and the veal Marsala was out of this world. Portions were plentiful and service impeccable. Would highly recommend this authentic Italian restaurant. The only negative was the noise level made it difficult to have a conversation.

    Our server Ashley was the nicest, most amazing server I have ever experienced. She catered to all of our needs perfectly and made small talk about our night which helped us a million. It was my birthday and she made my night extra special by providing us with a great experience. The service was amazing. Promote her.

    Awesome food, awesome service! Made a reservation a month in advance for 5:00, we were catching a show! Got there 45 minutes early, all empty tables. Hostess was extremely rude and shouldn't be working with the public. We asked to be seated earlier and she said we couldn't, she explained she was over booked. We sat at the bar and had some drinks. 5:00 came and went, she sat every table for 5:00 before us! Rude! Finally we spoke to another host who sat us right away, and he couldn't believe we weren't seated yet. Too many restaurants to choose from in AC to be treated like this!
