   The veal chop is my favorite and they’ll cook it to perfection. The gnocchi with pesto is a go to that we share as an appetizer. The specials make it difficult to order from the menu. The entire staff is excellent!!! Our new fav

   Delicious, Great Service, Amazing Vibe! Valentine’s Day restaurant dinners are typically pre-set and pre-cooked; my husband and I have never had a truly excellent Valentine’s dinner experience; until now, that is! Firstly, we were greeted warmly and professionally. When we sat down and looked at the menu, our hearts sank some, as we were presented with a pre-set Valentine’s Day menu. BUT — this time — there were multiple choices for each of us. I had a good feeling and took a chance—I ordered filet mignon, a dish I typically would NEVER order from a pre-set menu, and usually ONLY at a steakhouse. My husband ordered the heart-shaped Ravioli (nice touch!) and we both had the rice balls as an appy and mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts for sides. Italian cheesecake for dessert and the recommended house Pinot Noir. The music was at the PERFECT volume. It is worth noting that the music was also incredibly fun 50s 60s 70s music that everyone loves, regardless of age, background, etc. We also never had trouble hearing each other (this is major for us) yet we NEVER heard our neighbors’ conversations. All our table-neighbors were so friendly, too, without any kind of awkwardness. Just a great, friendly atmosphere. How they accomplished all this, I truly don’t know, but it was FABULOUS! … Every dish was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and seasoned. Service was five-star! Great vibe, delicious food, amazing service, AND on a difficult and busy night!?…What else can you ask for? We’ll be back! Thank you for a great meal and a wonderful evening!

   This was the first time we have been to this local restaurant. It is quite pricey but we were given a gift card. The all the food and the service was impeccable!!! But we went on a Friday night at 7:00pm, it was quite when we walked in and then all of a sudden it got packed and so loud, that it was too loud. Table of 3 men behind me were cursing away and their voices were booming.. and then there was the table of 10. It was just too much. I don’t think we will be returning, and if we do, it will be during a weekday.. but who knows. Food and service was excellent!

   Very good dinner. Our waiter brought out a dish full of their special fish for the day and explained what fish and how it would be prepared and also said you could change how they cook it to your liking. Also did the same with meat selection. My red snapper was delicious as was the special artichoke appetizer and calamari. Owner also stopped by our table to see if we were pleased with everything. I would definitely go back again

    The food was so delicious! Each dish is made from the freshest ingredients and I am taken back to Italy with every bite.
