2nd time eating here and both times have been great. Cozy restaurant, good drinks and great food. The burrata special app was fantastic. Very quick, in and out in about an hour for a party of 4 on a busy Friday night. Would definitely come back again

My husband & I have dined here many times. Delicious Italian food and friendly staff. The owner is also always there to greet you when you arrive. It is a small restaurant on second floor, and has a nice vibe.

Amazing food and service. They sat us before our reservation a great seat by the window. The limoncello shrimp app was great and the pastas are cooked perfectly. Not a huge place with good acoustics so it is definitely very loud and the tables are close to each other. All around good meal.

We felt pushed into ordering the chef's menu. We went along, but would have preferred to make our own choices. Our bad I guess. Also, the waiter would not let us see the wine menu. Instead, he pushed us into accepting his choice of wines. Again, we went along, but regretted it afterwards.

The food here was ok, not worth what it is priced. The service was fine, we were moved along very quickly and were not allowed to order our entrees separately from our appetizers. If you are looking for a nice Italian restaurant to wine and dine with your honey at, this is not the place….
