    Food was OK, but I was very disappointed that the beet salad, which is still on their menu on their website, is no longer available.

    Prices are way too expensive for the experience we had. Food was just fair … nothing special. Service was just decent. And I had mentioned when I made the reservation, that it was my Mom’s 94th bday and that a slice of cake with a candle would be appreciated. Not only did we not get the cake, but her bday was not even acknowledged! I’m guessing poor training or poor management. The prices reflected that this was a special restaurant for a special occasion … the experience did not.

    It turned out to be a good experience overall, though it got off to a rough start. We had reservations for 7:00 PM and requested a booth. I arrived just before 7:00 to check in while my friend went to the restroom. Initially, the host seated me at a booth, but a few minutes later, she came over and asked me to move to a table instead. Once my friend joined me, we waited over 10 minutes before anyone came to our table. Eventually, the waitress brought a basket of bread, which was a nice touch. It was clear she was working hard and the restaurant seemed short-staffed. By the time she returned to take our drink orders, we had already decided on our meal. We ordered a salad to share and the eggplant Parmesan. We requested the dressing on the side, but the salad came pre-dressed. Thankfully, the dressing wasn’t overdone, so we ate it and enjoyed it. When the eggplant Parmesan arrived, it was difficult to cut, and we soon discovered it was burnt underneath. We informed the waitress, and the manager came over to address the issue. They made a new one, and it turned out perfect the second time. Both the manager and the waitress were wonderful throughout the evening, which helped make up for the earlier hiccups. That said, the food prices were noticeably higher than what was listed on OpenTable, with an increase of $1–$4 per dish. While I’d consider going back, it would likely be to share a meal due to the high prices.

    The meatball is good. That's the only positive thing. The chicken parm was microwaved and so was all the hard tasteless pasta. Canolli was probably bought at grocery store for $2 and sold for $12. Stick with the pizza maybe..

    It was a perfect night. A little dark in the corner. But it was very nice for our special date.

    Very disappointed, you took chicken and broccoli rabe off your menu my favorite ☹️ I don’t like your new menu at all. Going to have to find a new place to dine when we come.
