    High quality fresh pasta! Very quiet at 1pm on a Saturday - most sound was from the music they had playing. Would come back as it's a quality feed!

    I was really looking forward to going here. Food was just ok, for $420 for 3 (with some drinks) I was expecting better. Service was all over the place, i.e asked for a beer and server then didn't take order for it and had to wait 5 mins for someone else, potatoes were forgotten. Just overall eh, won't be back.

    Excellent food - absolutely no doubt about that. The service was appalling. No one paid any attention to us when we walked in the door, no one gave us any menus (drinks or food) when we sat down, and no one came to take our order. This was despite three servers wandering around (looking like they wandered in by accident). When the food arrived the waitress put a HOT plate of pasta directly into my wife's hands and burnt them. The food is fabulous but on the service alone I would be embarrassed to recommend this place.
