The food and the service was really good. I had the salmon and others had pasta and salad. None of us had any complaints. There was not a long wait for a table or food.

We have driven past it a million times and never thought to try it based on its nondescript exterior. It seemed like a Fazzolis with the big red tomato and the name bologna* and the strip mall location, but it is actually a really cozy little Italian restaurant with super tasty food.

Dave Borghese
Some of the best food I’ve tasted…..ever. Traverse City Chicken is such a tasty plate. A cream sauce with a perfect hint of cherry with mushrooms poured on top of the chicken. Never tasted anything like it. Served with grilled zucchini. I think it’s their most popular plate. The lasagna is also very good and a large portion. Almost as good as mom’s! Lol Antipasto salad and wedding soup make great first course choices.

Such a disappointment. Waitress was not nice or good. Food was dry, and lacking flavor. Nothing came with meal, and never offered a salad or soup, or more bread. Don’t waste your money here.

Wonderful family owned business that has been a staple in the community for years in fine Italian dining, great atmosphere, kind and attentive staff, transitions between courses are always prompt and considerate of your dining experience, this is one of those resturants where it doesn’t matter what you order you will always be pleased!

Ah. Maz. Ing. A hidden gem for fantastic Italian food. We came here for our anniversary and the food and drinks were sooooooo good. Excellent service. I’m running out of adjectives. We had the carbonara and chicken Parmesan, apps were bruschetta and Brussels sprouts and tiramisu for dessert. It was hard for me to pick an entree because everything looked so good on the menu. I can’t wait to come here again and try everything else. Thank you so much for a memorable evening.
