    It took over 20 minutes to be sat even though there were plenty of open tables. After checking in with the hostess for a second time I was greeted with an annoyed look/tone and brought to my table. I am normally very satisfied when coming here but this experience left little to be desired.

    Our experience was great all the way around. We were sat for our reservation a little early and right away. Our server was there very quickly to bring waters and gather our drink orders. He took our appetizer order from Happy Hour menu and brought our drinks. The meatballs and wing apps were great. Then came our main order of the burger for my daughter which was excellent, the bolognese for my son, and a great eggplant parm for me. Everything was great!

    Food delicious. Portion sizes generous. Service excellent. Just a bit noisy if that’s a factor for you. Outside not as bad if weather is nice.
