   I can’t believe I’m going to say these things about one of our if not our very most favorite restaurants. This is the second time we made a reservation and when arrived in time, were made to wait over 15 minutes for our table. Our reservation was at 8:15. The restaurant was bulging with people both waiting and seated. We were told we could sit at the bar (which there were obviously no seats available,) or go next door to the other restaurant to wait. My family all noticed the host wasn’t particularly friendly about it and unashamedly unapologetic. At least perhaps the offer of a glass of wine or something would have softened the blow of standing around. When seated, our waiter had an attitude. This was disappointing after already waiting uncomfortably and in the past we had such positive experiences. When we got our first item, zucchini, it was prepared oddly, which we sent back. It was served cold. Soon after we received our appetizers, the server came over and quickly said this was last call and the kitchen was closing. What? We hadn’t even received our second course (pizza). I asked about dessert and he said that would be possible. I said it was too bad that we got seated so late after our reservation time because this was rushed. He replied harshly that this was it, and the kitchen was “Fini” for the night. We couldn’t believe his rudeness. After that, one of the other servers who seemed to be assisting, Alfonso, was very warm and nice and made us feel at home. Overall, the food was good, but not as good as other times. Perhaps they were all worn out. We shared pane bianca, which is always delicious, and sweet potatoes, both were luck warm and not as fresh tasting as usual. My husband had the chop salad, which he liked, and My son and I shared a pizza, also good. I asked the waiter for a red wine recommendation, and he recommended the most expensive one ($30 cabernet), and did not offer a taste. Will be back, but……

   This fell a little below our expectations. We reserved two tables. One was ready at our appointed time. The other wasn’t ready until 30 minutes after our reservation, so our dinner got off to an uneven start. I had to actively follow up with the host to get seated when we saw the table was open for a long time. The margherita pizza came out cold and the funghi pizza was heavy on the salt. Beyond that, everything was solid but nothing wowed us. Overall a good meal but didn’t quite line up to what we paid for in my opinion.

   Always stellar food. Took out of town guests and they were blown away. The grande finale was the butterscotch Budino!

    I have never posted a review. I dined a year ago and it was great. Today was terrible. We ordered a salad for two as an appetizer, a salad as a main dish and two pizzas. After an hour they had not delivered the appetizer salad. When we asked they brought the appetizer and main course salad together. After waiting for about another half hour we asked about the pizzas and were told they would be ready in 8 minutes. They weren’t. When the pizzas finally arrived they were mediocre at best. They did comp the pizzas. However the food and experience were well below average
