I had a wonderful experience! I’m really not sure why the other reviews are so terrible. Service was attentive, friendly and fast. The bread was amazing. We ordered stuffed mushroom, italian sausage, balsamic chicken and the pesto gnocchi. My boyfriend has a severe nut allergy so when we asked for the pesto gnocchi without pesto (pesto often contains walnuts) the waiter was able to quickly suggest a substitute sauce for the gnocchi and it was delicious! Many restaurants aren’t very good when catering to nut allergies but this was great.

Stopped in while staying at the Marriott nextdoor after a long ride from NH. Perfect choice! The house bread was warm and delicious! Our entrees were also delicious. I loved the attention to detail! The wait staff was fun and very pleasant. Thank you we loved it

Dec2022 Yesenia was wonderful and our experience was tasty. We had a selection of pastas: penne vodka 0/10, fettuccine Alfredo with lobster 7/10 lobster was dry and basic flavoring, and salmon pesto gnocchi was 8/10 very tasty complemented with some merlot red wine. Calamari was fire and so was some of the desserts.

Well well, I love Italian food since I’m from Asmara, one of the beautiful Italian colonized city. I grew up eating pasta and Italian food, but this eggplant with pasta was amazing. Hands down! Our server Nicholas was very friendly and attentive, also the place is cool and very wide.

A lovely low-key restaurant. The food is delicious everything was freshly made, it’s a great place for romantic date night or just a great place to grab some authentic Italian food.

I was excited to order from this restaurant because I remember how good it was 6 years ago. I made an online order for pickup and called once I arrived. I thought there was curbside pickup because I didn’t see any instructions on where to get the food. I asked the woman who answered says, “I guess I can come bring out to you.” [with an attitude] -Terrible hospitality! I don’t feel entitled to receive curbside but, the way the message was conveyed let me know the culture of this place has significantly changed.

I remember a few years ago a Family Size Fried Calamari was in a large try. Now it’s in this tiny tray.

Met a friend here for dinner. The waiter sold us on a white sangria and it was nice and refreshing. The mixed green salad was bigger than expected and very good. The fococia was a bit soggy and tasteless, but the eggplant parmesan was very good. The portions are enough for two meals. Had a slice of cake for dessert and it was flavorful without being too heavy. The service was excellent—someone filled our water glasses without a wait and the waiter was attentive. A very nice experience!

Service was amazingly friendly and attentive to us. My water glass was kept full up to the moment I stood up to leave.
