    トラムの駅から近くアクセスしやすい。 顧客都合による予約の変更が複数回必要であったが、快く柔軟に対応してもらえた。 食事はどれも美味しく、価格が高すぎない点も素晴らしい。 誕生日のメンバーのお祝いをしようとしたがオーダーがうまく伝わらず達成出来なかったことだけが細やかな心残りである。

    Went on a small vacation with my family and decided to take a walk around downtown we were looking for an Italian place since my kids love pizza and pasta also my wife and I wanted a few drinks before heading back to the hotel. The host sat us right away, and we received bread and water almost immediately. The staff was speaking Italian and I thought to myself “this is going to be good” well I was halfway right. We waited 20 min before speaking to the server who once there was very polite. Ordered 2 pizzas (good size) spaghetti and meatballs the mango jalapeño margarita and a Bourbon Dream and my daughter ordered a sprite. We waited 5-10 min for the drinks but didn’t receive the sprite. We waited another 10 min for the food. The 2 pizzas arrived but the meatballs were nowhere to be found nether was the server. I waited and finally decided to wave another server over. He was also very polite and said he would check on the food. After another 10 min I got my food. The food over all was perfect! Exactly what we expected from an authentic italian restaurant. Our waiter finally arrived after he noticed we were done with our food and I informed him of all the discrepancies also informed him that my wife and I wanted another round of the delicious drinks but that we were now done with the food. He did offer free drinks and dessert however it was late and after traveling we were just exhausted. It’s such a shame i really wanted to like this place but the lack of service is enough for me not to go back. I may order to go since the food was amazing! The staff is friendly however like I said it’s not bad service it’s the lack of service.

    The ambience was great. We dined on the patio. Although my meal was not to my satisfaction, my kid enjoyed their's. The service was attentive nonetheless. I would still recommend.

    Had the artichoke and olive salad - Wow! the flavors were wonderful and the portion size very large. Next, we ordered Cioppino (fish soup) which is a favorite of both my husband and I. It was filled with a delightful assortment of fresh fish, mussels, clams, octopus, squid, white fish and shrimp all simmered in a savory tomato broth and accompanied by two pieces of toasted bread. Highly recommend this entree if you are a fish lover.

    Pizza was reminiscent of what we ate in Sorrento Italy last year. Mushroom ravioli was very good also. Staff was very friendly and pleasant. Wine was a bit overpriced for the pour.

    Overall good experience. The bread service was wonderful, wine selection was okay, outside seating was a bit loud, food was okay. Drinks were kept full and server was attentive. We ordered the seafood pasta and lobster ravioli.
