    Service was amazing!! We made our reservation a few months ago and am disappointed in the table we were given. It was literally the first one inside so not much ambiance. Close to the door.

    Food was absolutely delicious, presentations superb! Loved love the level of service and attention that we got, we were a party of six. We went for lunch, which has not been advertised on their website yet so it wasn’t very crowded. It is a beautiful, beautiful space And very elegant. Lunch was extremely reasonable in price and plan to go back there many more times!

    We came for my mother’s birthday, and the service was incredible from the moment we walked in to when we left, we were treated with amazing service making it truly a special night for my mom! We had absolutely delicious appetizers, and dinner was outstanding some of the best Italian food if not the best I’ve had in a long long time! My mom even said she’s going to want to order food from there to take home often now! Definitely loved the atmosphere, food and service! Will definitely be back!

    I loved the charcuterie cart. The service was very good as well as the appetizers. We all ordered different pastas, and they were all average. Espresso martini is out of this world and so we’re all the desserts.

    If you are looking for authentic Italian food that you don't find in othe restaurants you are at the right place. The food was phenomenal and the waitstaff was extremely attentive and caring. The gm could not have been more caring, with newcomers being treated no different than the regulars. The best Italuan food I've had since moving from Brooklyn 33 years ago.

    Order came out wrong. Pork chop well done. Took a very long time to replace. Pasta was cold. Manager was not too concerned and didn’t offer anything for all the inconvenience. Over priced for mediocre food and very loud atmosphere.
