    From the moment I order my drink the waiter didn't get it right, the appetizer was amazing, other than that everything went wrong! The main dish was cold, I told the waiter about it and his reply was he was going to let know management, we ask for the check and paid everything in full no body from management approach us or at least try to discount the food! Nothing. I will not be dining at a place where they don't value customers.

    Our first time visiting this restaurant was very surprising. First, I want to say the restaurant was clean and felt like home. Seeing the kitchen with the pizza oven was amazing. Second, our waiter (J--) was outstanding, he was so kind, friendly, welcoming and he goes out of his way to make a conversation. I like that fact that he took in consideration of my food restriction. No one has ever done this for me. I highly recommend this place! the food was like homemade very favorable.
