   Restaurant is a convenient neighborhood place with a comfortable ambiance. Service was OK but not smooth. There was no decaf coffee nor cream available. Food was mixed. My pasta frutti di mare was good as was my wife's lobster ravioli. My friend could not eat his veal dish. In short, the restaurant has good potential but needs to clean up its rough edges. We want to keep them in the neighborhood.

   The food is above average red sauce fare at a decent price in a nice, modern location. The service is okay - friendly but kind of slow this night. We had excellent service the time before so it is dependent on the individual server you get.

   Tis is the first time the two of us have eaten there - early on a Monday evening. The place was very quiet as there were not many people there. (I like quiet!) It will probably be noisier when it is closer to capacity. The food was excellent and the service could not be better. Loved it!

   This is quite a hidden Jen. The egg plant starter, as well as carbonara are really delicious.

    Restaurant Week. The restaurant week menu, though rich, was terrific value. The restaurant is spacious, it was quiet (when we went there were no rowdy tables). The service was fine. Portions filling. A great deal. I can’t comment on the regular menu.
