   Great experience with the exception of a very cold baked potato which our wonderful waitress corrected in short time. Cannot wait to go back.

   The food was amazing. There were three of us. We all enjoyed our meals. The steak was cooked to perfection and the pasta was also perfect. Will definitely make this my go to when in the area.

   Overall, our experience was excellent! Each of our dishes (charcuterie board, French onion soup, chicken parmigiana, scallop risotto, scallop oreganata, apple pie, and cheesecake) were very good. Portions were large and the charcuterie board was more than enough for our party of three. All of the staff were on point and very friendly. As the evening progressed, the restaurant and bar filled, and it seemed the staff knew each guest. While it was our first time, everyone treated us with the same attention given the regulars. In all, this was such a great experience. We can't wait to go back!

   Tonight was not my favorite experience. It took almost 25 minutes to get someone to take our drink order.

   Great local Italian Restaurant with a huge bar. Service was quick and welcoming. Food was flavorful and fresh. Drinks were good too. Ample amount of seating and dining space. I’ve lived in the area for 10+ years and I don’t know why I haven’t dined here sooner. Will be a regular from now on.

   We went to celebrate our daughter's recent accomplishment. It's usually a very enjoyable dining experience, but this wasn't because of very poor service. We waited so long for everything! We were seated for 20 minutes before even taking our drink order, then waited and waited for drinks to arrive. We gave our food order immediately, but waited another 30+ minutes for it to be served. My side of mashed potatoes was cold. Our waitress wasn't trying to help at all. She was either standing by the bar chatting with staff, or disappeared out of sight for long stretches of time. She barely checked on us, plus "forgetting" to bring basic things to our table, like sugar with coffee and drink refills. She didn't know, nor offer us, the full dessert options. She was "really busy", but it wasn't even crowded. Then we're given the "we're short staffed" excuse - on a Saturday night. Our server was absolutely terrible. We were really disappointed this time.

    My husband and I ordered veal piccata which was terrible the veal had a bad taste to it and we also shared surf and turf salad which was ridiculously priced as well as not very good meat was tuff and presentation was not great. Such a disappointment as we have been here many many times and have not had bad experiences. Service was poor had to ask several times for drink refills sitting at the table as well as at the bar after. Just a disappointment
