     From the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left everything was fantastic! We needed a restaurant like this in the valley! The decor the food and the service are stellar! Can’t wait to return! Our waiter Gary was so accommodating! All the extra touches really made it special. Best restaurant in the valley we’ve been to in a long time!

    Wonderful first experience. We were amazed at how many people were working there. Eddie the manager is a star. He did a great job of making us feel welcome. Our busboy handled drinks really well. He had an upbeat personality. Our waiter was helpful in deciding what to order. We will be back soon!

    The fish was old and should not have been served. Asked for wine sauce, got it in tomato sauce (even the waitstaff was surprised when they saw the dish, as someone else than them delivered it). I am sure this was an off night, but I will not return.

    Food and service were excellent. It's a little loud, but definitely worth a try. The short rib Ragu is fantastic.

    My family is from Calabria and here in Arizona. I have not found an Italian restaurant that I really liked… This restaurant felt like home. We each had something different. Everything came out piping hot was delicious. Nate was our server. He was fantastic. I even asked to see the MOD to thank him for Nate service. I was a trainer for United Airlines and I am an international flight attendant for 41 years… I know good service when I see it, but more importantly, feel it. I loved getting dressed up. This is a higher quality restaurant. My suggestion would be to not wear jeans Dress up have a night out.!!

    Beautiful decor, friendly attentive staff and good tasting food. Very loud inside. The clam muscle appetizer was tasty but tiny and very overpriced for what it is. Short rib lasagna was outstanding! Definitely going back to try other dishes
