Family style Italian restaurant serving the classics and new twists.

I dined at this venue for an end of the year celebration for a middle school. The space was small but charmed. The tables and overall decor were pleasant and elegant. The bar was located in a separate room, which usually I’d not prefer. However, considering the event, it worked perfectly. The servers were, for the most part, attentive, but having middle schoolers as most of the group, I’d take my time too.

The food here is always excellent and portions are generous. The best part was the EXCELLENT service of our waiter tonight. A young man who was so on point with bringing what we need and thinking ahead to help us with sharing plates, extra items and packed our to go food in plastic wrap in addition to normal to go boxes. His attention was very noticed and was exceptional relative to other restaurant service. Can’t wait to come back and hope he is our waiter again!! Wish I had his name for this shout out

The food was served hot and delicious. The pasta was cooked al dente and the sauce was good. The salad was a bit too oily and the lettuce was slightly withered but overall the food was good. The waitress was nice and attentive to our requests.

What a disaster! I’ve been coming here since I was a kid, not by choice. It’s where my family wants to go every year. This time they really dropped the ball. The waiter was very apologetic. Being a “high end“ restaurant they claim to be. When I sent my steak back for being almost raw not even close to medium well. You would think the manager would have been all over that steak from the time it hit the grill to before reaching me. It came back out almost as purple as the first time. Clear incompetence and/or negligence..
