"Well for the cost, the specials weren't very special. And the risotto tasted like it was from a box. But the service was amazing. Great staff."

"Great neighborhood restaurant. The service is excellent, the food fantastic, and I often see friends there. The back room is great for large groups. Whether it's date night, family night, or a celebration I would recommend you try this restaurant."

"I hate to complain, but it seemed from the moment we walked in that we were inconveniencing the staff. We arrived shortly after 8pm, though the restaurant didn't close until 10 and was empty, we were rushed to order, rushed to eat, and rushed to get out. I ordered a pinot noir that was awful. I asked our server, Taylor, if I could exchange it and he said yes. Sadly, the next glass of wine he brought, tasted exactly like the one I had just returned, no doubt he just poured it into a new glass. My husband's food order for veal was incorrect, and when we said something to our server, he wanted to know if they could just put the veal on a new plate and they did. Very disappointing."

"The first time I was here I had a veal parmesan sub sandwich.It was good except for the sauce that I thought was rather strange.It was more like tomato pulp that is left over after you strain the tomatoes for the juice to make sauce.I tried it again and the meal was better.For the third time I had the veal parmeggiana dinner.Again the strange tomato pulp with seeds appeared that was called marinara sauce.It was lumpy,seedy and not your traditional Italian gravy.The veal was fine.Then the dish included undercooked vegetable combination that did not go with the dish.I let those go. The menu states that the meat part is on TOP of the pasta with the sauce and mozzarella cheese, piled high.It was not good.They need lessons on Italian cooking."

"Excellent Italian food, the best I've tasted since I left New York 39 years ago. Service is "personal" not phony. If you want great food and a warm friendly service this is a good place."

"I would not recommend the salad selections, they are uninspiring in taste and the lettuce was not crisp or of high quality. The entrees are wonderful, have not had a disappointment with any of the selections."
