    Overall a pretty good dining experience. Our waiter didn't greet us for about 15 minutes after we sat down, but once he did he was very friendly and helpful. The food was tasty, except for the fish which was a bit bland.

    Great ambiance. The waitress we had was super friendly. The veal tortellini was delicious. Sadly the crab on top of the chicken was not lump (more like canned and tasted fishy). Grilled romaine was delicious.

    Best Italian food in the area ... hands down! The food is legit good. The staff is knowledgable, attentive and relaxed. We moved several years ago and whenever we get back, this is where we go. The portions are large and the quality of their food is solid. My only small recommendation is to lower the ceiling lights a bit to create more of an ambiance, so the ceiling is darkened a bit. The hanging lights are super nice so keep them at their current level, just reduce the higher, ceiling lights.
