    Birthday/Christmas Eve celebration. Place was cute and a bit confusing to find at first (it was night time and at a gold course). I’ll have to go during the day to enjoy the views. Place was decorated for the holidays and one of the few spots that I was able to get a last minute rsvp after another restaurant cancelled our rsvp because of a system error. Service and server were great, food choices were not as many as I would’ve desired but we managed to find our picks. Overall nice place. Like I said, I’ll have to check the place out during daylight hours.

    It was my birthday lunch with my three closest friends. So I picked the place. I wanted Italian and we weren't disappointed. The soup, pasta and desert was all home made and delicious. We were transported to Italy. the reason I gave three stars for ambiance, is because it looked like a diner.

    Food was excellent. However, we felt that a side salad or bread should have been included with our pasta dishes for the prices we paid.

    Unfortunately, this establishment is not truly an Italian restaurant. The Pizza and Parmesan fries were excellent. The Italian dishes, such as Parmesan chicken were awful. The bacon wrapped dates seem to be premade and heated up. The feta bites were good. If you’re looking for bar food this is the place to go.

    Very large portion of chicken parm over spaghetti, which was mushy. Salmon with zucchini and tomato sauce was good. They were out of the special lasagna at 6:30. Wine was small portion for the price of $13, so not good value there. We will go back to try more things because ambiance is good, parking good and near our residence.

    The menu is very limited, but the outdoor veranda is a very pleasant setting. Service staff was very attentive and efficient. We would come more often if the food was better.

    super friendly and helpful servers. The limoncello spritz was so refreshing on a hot day. We followed that with the whipped ricotta bruschetta, which was delicious. Entrees were quite good too!

    Food and service excellent. Dates wrapped in Italian ham were delicious. Salmon and vegetables were prepared perfectly, other dinners served were good but needed to be served warmer. Beautiful views of the golf course and atmosphere delightful.
