"Normally great- food is fantastic. Went for lunch today with my mother and they were hosting a party that was so loud we couldn’t even talk to each other. Asked to be reseated in the bar area- no luck. Then asked for our order to be cancelled and was told it was “too late”- ok take it to go… not even what we ordered when we went out to sort out orders on the hood of my car"

"Service was top notch. Meals not so much. I ordered stuffed sole and it was very bland. No flavor. My daughter ordered penne vodka sauce and sauce had a strong displeasing cinnamon flavor. Overall interior is dated especially dining room."

"We go on a regular basis. Sometimes eat in the bar area, and sometimes in the restaurant. The bartender John is great. Very friendly and makes a great drink. Always pleasant conversation. The hostess, or maybe supposed to be the manager, is not very friendly and spends most of her time on the phone or playing with the kitchen staff. Kitchen staff gets loud. The guy who makes the pizza and bread is obnoxious. The other night he was chasing the waitress around with a broom making her scream. She could be heard across the restaurant. Not very pleasant when eating dinner. All in all, good food and drinks, but the staff needs some discipline and improvement to be more customer oriented."

"Bought our mother for her Birthday. It was our first time going there and it was perfect. Great food great service and nice atmosphere. Will definitely be back."

"We were told by a friend that we has to try this restaurant. So happy we did! The staff is welcoming and the interior is warm and lovely. We ordered cocktails that were made perfectly then a variety of foods. ALL were delicious seasoned right and presented in a rustic way that was reminiscent of my friend's Italian mother's kitchen. We will be back asap."
