Had a lovely time with my family from start to finish. Had a reservation for a party of 7 and we were seated promptly. Our server Tiffany was very nice and attentive. Everything was delicious, we ordered a bunch of appetizers to start, entrees and dessert and everything was right on point! Highly recommend.

We had a party of six and made a reservation for 6:30. We arrived early and not all of our party had arrived so we sat on the lovely front porch and watched the world go by.

This place is absolutely amazing! Well worth the hour drive to get there. We had a party of 12 and our server was top notch! I will be back! Wish I would have gotten photos of the food but I was enjoying it to much! Here is the back view of the restaurant.

Service was great! The lasagna egg rolls were amazing. The portion sizes are for two. I chose the chicken parmesan and it was delicious. Highly recommend this place! The prices are a little high but the size and taste make up for it.
