"I enjoy sitting in the game area, my 4 year old can play games while waiting for dinner. It's almost hit or miss when ordering, but it's still good. Sometimes it's just better than others. Burgers are always really yummy and the garlic fries.... you won't be able to stop. Always a friendly vibe."

"Coming home from a long day of riding in the desert, we were craving Italian. We decided to stop and give it a shot. Wow. We are glad we did. Everything we ordered, from appetizers to the main meal was incredibly good. Service was exceptional and friendly. Plenty of heaters in the outside seating area. That's key on cold nights. Will definitely try to make this a regular stop coming through the area. I don't typically ask to take left overs home. Definitely looking forward to lunch tomorrow. I had the lasagna and mozzarella sticks and the flavor was like nothing I've had before. So good and so stuffed."

"Good food. Good drinks. Good wine. Good service. Good game room. What more could you ask for? The gamberoni all’s diavola was the star of the meal. Everything tasted fantastic and everything else around us that others ordered looked and smelt just as fantastic. The portions were larger than expected which was nice."

"9.5/10 The restaurant is beautiful. The ambiance is nearly impeccable. Frank Sinatra crooning while you eat authentic imported Italian pasta over a well prepared drink is nearly perfection. The waitresses were kind, prompt, and efficient. The manager himself was getting his hands dirty helping around the restaurant. The kind of manager you want overseeing the place you're eating. The decor was cute, down to the genuine Vespa inside the actual restaurant, beckoning you for an Italian adventure. The people around our table seemed pleased with their meals judging from the nods and consumption. The silverware and glassware were clean, no water spots or residue to be seen. Napkins were crisp, no stains. Tables wiped, chairs level and maintained. Genuinely one of the cleanest establishments I've ventured through. The half point was deducted from the restrooms. Although both were clean(I may have peaked into the opposite bathroom as well), they left a little something to be desired after the charm of the restaurant. I found myself slightly disappointed at the lack of "immersion" into the Italian theme after the wimsy of the rest of the decor. Passing the kitchen, the cooks seemed in good spirits. Smiling, joking with one another. The camadre you find only in well-run restaurants. The food is fantastic. Generous portions, not greasy, beautifully plated. The tomatoes tasted fresh, juicy. The bruchetta is a must try. All in all, this is a lovely restaurant. Great food, good people."

"Authentic Italian food where the owners work alongside their employees. Such great customer service in every aspect! Food is phenomenal where a group and I went two days in a row! The handmade ravioli and gnocchi are a must have in my book!!"
