    A+! One of our family’s fave restaurants! Eggplant Involtini is divine! Sunday Sauce is always a hit, tried Swiss Chard and Sausage and it did not disappoint.

    The service was equally as amazing as the food. The vodka sauce, braised pork, and Swiss chard pasta were out of this world!

    We love eating here every time we are in town but it is always so crowded. Kinda feels like you can barely move and very loud. But as always the food and service were absolutely amazing! We will definitely be back at our favorite restaurant!

    We had a great time. The food was excellent - we ordered 4 pastas - one per person and shared. All pastas were delicious. The ambiance was good - I like the expanded space at Pepe & Dolores. The server was very helpful as well.
