    Nicole, 10/10 service thank you! Focaccia and whipped ricotta is a must. Portions are very reasonable in regards to their price points. Thanks!

    Although Mama’s knew it was our anniversary, we were put right near the door at the worst table. The food was totally uninspired. The calamari was overcooked and tasteless. The bread was greasy. The spaghetti was overcooked. The Caesar salad was just lettuce with heavy cheese on it. The eggplant parmigiana was 2 fried slices of eggplant with thick slabs of melted cheese all over it. That’s not eggplant parmigiana. Oh, and the carafe of red wine was ice cold! My husband didn’t want me to complain at the restaurant. Oh, and it was all served really poorly too. The way it looked on the plate. I don’t understand why it gets good reviews. Even though I barely ate I guess I ate enough so that I had terrible stomach cramps all night. Thanks for the great anniversary!

I am especially sorry to hear you didn't feel comfortable notifying us at the time. I would have loved the opportunity to make it right. I appreciate your feedback and have shared your thoughts with my culinary team.
