"The food was excellent and the service was great. We had our 15-month old daughter with us and they were great with her as well. The restaurant was pretty quiet, except for our daughter of course."

"Overall the food was good. However, portions were a little on the small side so we left still a little hungry. I normally prefer smaller portions for a dinner menue where there are multiple courses,but since the brunch was not a la carte the meal was over in 5 minutes. Would have preferred some items to be a la carte (bread, fruit, juice) to allow for a more leisurely brunch."

"We sat out on the street of Phoenixville. It was great for people watching in the beautiful weather. However, the waiter service wasn't very attentive outside. Perhaps because the restaurant is inside and downstairs but it was slow and a refill on bread and a soda never came. The waiter was very personable and knowledgeable. The food was phenomenal!"

"Food was excellent. Server was very friendly and offered great suggestions since we had not been there before (appetizer and wine choice) There was live music in the bar which detracted from our experience. Too loud for conversation. Overall we enjoyed it very much and will definitely return."

"I went with my parents on a weeknight. It was quiet and there were only tree or four other tables occupied. Seemed like there was ample space for groups, though, perhaps for special occasions. The service was slow, though. I think it was intentional, to not rush us, but my parents were getting fidgety because by 8 o'clock, we'd spent two hours ordering and eating. Good food - nothing terribly inventive,, but definitely some solidly delicious Italian food."

"Great food, good service. A bit dark inside. Music was playing early for dinner and was loud, made it hard to hear server or talk to people at the table. Specials were hard to consider, because there were alot and they were all verbalized. I would come back again, but id probably make sure that it was a night were there was no music. Thanks."

"Restaurant was excellent,first time there. We had excellent service, food choices were great and food was perfect. The drinks were well done and served timely. It was a bit noisy due to the "Pub Crawl" event going on in town. Dessert peanut butter cheesecake was fantastic. Definately will be coming back to try other selections. Glad they offered small plate plus entree for those who do not want all that food. Overall would give a 5 star, nice little find in Phoenixville for Italian."

"Decor and lighting was not very romantic, which was okay, except the prices on the menu were a bit higher. The bar setup and live music was great, but the food and service / apparell was average.
I would suggest it as a good place to go and have appetizers or their pizzas and small plates, but not as a fine dining or more romantic place."
