We received a very warm welcome and throughout the meal, the service was friendly, attentive and professional. The food was delicious; steak slices perfectly cooked, pastas (tortelloni, spaghetti, rigatoni, gnocchi al dente in interesting combinations of ingredients. Homemade focaccia was a tasty accompaniment. The only small improvement we would make would be crispier fried calamari. Desserts of tiramisu, a cake made with ricotta and pistachio and a special for the evening of affogato capped off a memorable meal.

The spaghetti with shrimp in a delicious sauce is over the top! Love the generous pour of red wine, unlike any other restaurant in SC. Truly a fun experience. PS The complimentary homemade focaccia bread & oil is delicious treat for a hungry diner.

I was given a complementary Tiramisu dessert with a lit candle for my birthday, which was most appreciated. Their example of Tiramisu is among the best that I have ever had! Truly memorable. We'll be back soon. Highly recommended to all. Bravo!!!
