Very delightful flavors- I was impressed by the flavor of the red sauce - very simple yet so delicious. Quaint dining room. Very enjoyable.
We stumbled across this place after eating dinner at another restaurant nearby and wow!!! This restaurant was amazing. We had a party of 8 and had the back little room. It was all designed and arranged very cute with pictures all over. Service was very attentive and friendly. We started with 3 appetizers which were meatballs, fried zucchini, and fried raviolis. All so delicious can't believe I forgot to take pictures of all the food we just dug right in and cleaned off every plate. Same with our main dishes. I for the chicken piccata and it was one of my favorites by far. It came with mashed potatoes and veggies next time I will substitute it for pasta. My family and I come here every year for two weeks and this is a restaurant that will be added to the must go to!
Wonderful food that is plentiful; great service; my wife loves the veal and I love their pasta and Lasagna. The Cesar Salad is fantastic
you enter the restaurant you notice the smell, but after a while you get used to it. We got the calamari and it was very bland and had a irregular texture. It is also shaped like french fries?!? The garlic cheese bread was good and would for sure recommend over the calamari. After the appetizers there was around a 40 minute wait time; However, the lasagna was very good. It had an excellent sauce that tasted home made. Overall had good service and a good meal. Just don't get the calamari.
I've read all the reviews and almost did not go.... Instead, I went and it was WONDERFUL!! Pur server was Frida, she was a dynamo. Calm, gracious and had soooo many tables too! Go, you won't be disappointed
We had our 37th wedding anniversary dinner on August 1st. This was our first time going there. We were greeted by Carlos who took us to our table and he was our server for the evening. We had the shrimp scampi appetizer and ordered a bottle of wine and our food order was from the 3 course menu. The food was flavorful and presented cleanly on the plate. By cleanly I mean the food was plated with care. We were never rushed and the atmosphere was friendly. We felt at home in the restaurant. Carlos was great very knowledgeable. We will be back and try more items on the menu.
