Table of 6 Lack of options to choose from Margherita Pizza - Crisped and dry plus it was missing the Basel which they just slapped on; TERRIBLE Tequila lime chicken taco - Too much going on and meat was cold lacked flavor Carne Asada taco - Same presentation and meat was cold and lacked flavor had an old meat taste; no bueno Spaghetti and Meatballs - Words can't explain, just lacked everything and meatballs were cold in the middle Miso Salmon - Dull colorless and flavorless Rigatoni alla vodka - Safer plate; crispy chicken was added and lacked flavor, cold and nearly any vodka sauce added The place is so classy and vibes are on point. We were seated around 9 p.m. so I'm not sure if this is why our food was terrible but I will not return.

Service was absolutely terrible. Our table was ready 45 minutes after our reservation time and no one there seemed to think that was an issue. Once sat down took server 15 minutes to come to our table to get drink orders and then disappeared for 20 minutes. We got our food before the server brought our drinks to the table. All meals arrived but one and the table finished our meal before the last one arrived. Once the last meal arrived it was incorrect but the server or manager never came back to check on us to make sure it was correct. Overall very poor customer service and wait staff was non existent.

They were not helpful at all and very rude when we arrived, they made our first experience really unenjoyable. If going as a family I would avoid as they just made it difficult from the start. The food was also average.

I ordered the shaved brussels sprouts salad and the first time it came out; I had to send it back because it was mushy due to the amount of salad dressing. I didn't have to wait long for a new one with the dressing on the side. This was the second time I ordered this (the first time the dressing was on the side), and I won't order this again. The first visit I ordered this, the salmon I added on was inedible. If I go back, I will not order this again. On a positive note, the service was great. Also, the delicious cookies in their bakery is the reason I would go back!
