    Our server, Rachel was spectacular very attentive and on time with everything. My wife loved her pasta, vodka Al forno, Thought it had a little too much cheese, and not enough sauce, other than that it was great. I had the seafood pasta special very good but not enough seafood in my opinion only five clams and five shrimp. The coal fired bread service was excellent butter was spectacular. Table next to us had a couple of pizzas. They looked phenomenal. We will definitely be back

    My husband and I shared the calamari appetizer which was fantastic and very substantial. He ordered the sea bass over asparagus and garlic risotto and I had the special which was lobster and ricotta ravioli with tomato vodka cream sauce. Mine was delicious, though very rich. His sea bass was wonderful and cooked to perfection. The risotto was terrible. It was far from al dente as it was actually crunchy and overpowered by the garlic. Our server (I think his name was Dent) was fantastic. Attentive but not suffocating and made sure our main courses were reserved a reasonable time after we finished the appetizer. I have always enjoyed other Napoli restaurants and I would go to this one again too. Just wouldn’t order the risotto.

    My husband always gets the chicken parmigiana and I always get the lobster ravioli. Both dishes are delicious. We have tried other dishes and I must say everything is delicious.
