    The food is always amazing, unfortunately our experience with a certain waiter has occurred twice in a row and likely we will not be returning any time soon. He seems extremely put out to be working, never waiting to see if the table truly was finished ordering, asked my husband if he wanted something and didn’t allow myself or my friend any time to speak before walking away. This happened with drink, appetizer, and dessert orders, so very frustrating!!! We had to wait for him to return each time to make a request, including water refills when clearly glasses were empty. After leaving we realized we were charged for an extra dish! How convenient the tip is based on the total, acting disinterested and unapologetic when brought to his attention to correct.

    Nice little place on Main Street close to paid parking. I had the lasagna and it was good. The service was ok we probably sat 10 minutes before the lady showed up to take our drink order. But overall it was good and we would go back.

    Grabbed lunch at ItalX and had their meatball sandwich—so good! The meatballs were super flavorful, the sauce was spot-on, and the bread was fresh and perfectly toasted. Portion was solid, and the staff was really friendly.

    Christian is so above par with customer service!! That, along with the excellently made food has never failed! I’m salt sensitive and the food has true flavor and NEVER covered by adding a bunch salt!! I’d put the whole experience to any large city restaurant!! The bartenders always go above and beyond with their creativity when making cocktails! So impressive and chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday! My husband brings business folk here as well!! Keep up the great experience for more people to enjoy your true (unpretentious) full bodied dining!
