    Wendy made our experience. She was an amazing server and was very attentive despite it being such a busy night. The food was great as well!

    We had a lovely Valentines Day dinner! We really appreciated how accommodating the restaurant and our server, Wendy, were since we had our 4 year old with us. She had a great experience and so did we, thank you!

    First time here and it’s right around the corner for us to enjoy. The restaurant is beautiful and very well laid out. Decorated with great taste and the food was excellent. Our server was super attentive and handled our request to the perfection. We will definitely be back!

    Beautiful restaurant, wonderful ambiance! Several things were way over salted. To the point I couldn’t eat anymore. My dad’s soup (and he’s someone who usually adds salt to his food), my lasagna and the salad croutons. My husband ordered chicken piccata and the sauce was a thick yellow cream sauce. He said it had a mayonnaise taste to it. Lovely restaurant and we will try it again for pizza.

    Consistently excellent, we had a special occasion birthday, my daughter’s 20th celebration at Mom & Dad’s. The grouper and chicken piccata were both excellent, as was the seafood and regular lasagna. Our party of 7 enjoyed the food, apps, drinks and dessert, and we always make mom & dads our go-to for special occasions. Our server was so nice to our girls it really made a special event even more special.

    The location is nice. The interior of the restaurant is clean, and the service is excellent. The food is ok. If you don't really know Italian food then you will like it; but if you are expecting great Italian food, you may be disappointed. It's not really that expensive so it's not a huge disappointment, but it's not great. I think this is a good spot for the area; but if you make it a point to go there because the expectation is high based on serious experience with Italian food; this is just below Olive Garbage level, to put it in perspective.

    Food was excellent! A bit salty for all three dishes, but overall prep was great. Specialty drinks were tasty!
