    Poor experience all around. No menus, you need to download the QR code if you want to see the offerings, ( welcome back to covid days ). Eggplant Rollatini overcooked to the point where it was hard on the edges. We never were told what the specials were. I ordered the Veal Marsala, horrible flavor, sauce was rather sweet, veal was too tough to cut with my “butter” knife, never offered a real knife. We had to ask for salt and pepper. Service was rushed, and i do believe the heat was off upstairs, or turned down very low. This was at one time a staple of Federal Hill, but i must say, nothing was offered that makes me want to come back. Im sorry to say, this is one of my worst reviews posted. Best thing here, the Valet parking system !

The homemade pasta was delicious broccoli robin sausage was great. Real Parmesan was crispy and tender hit. The spot apps were good as well loved every bit

    Our waiter, Joe was fabulous and the food was average. I would have to say that the only dish that we felt poor was the veal.Marsala, the sauce was definitely not up to par.

    Food and service were exceptional. Slow night, minimal staff, so all patrons were crammed in a small space, but it wasn’t awful as everyone was quiet around us. Most importantly was that the food and service made for a most enjoyable evening.

    The food was amazing the service was horrible. We had a tray of water spilled on us with no apology or anything and waited 45 mins for our first round of drinks. Waitress acted like we were bothering her. Bus staff was rude as well as hostess when we arrived.

    Appetizer calamari was very good when paired with marinara. Cocktails suggested by our server were excellent. Lobster ravioli was phenomenal. Dry aged ribeye was overcooked and at $72 was a bit disappointing. Tiramisu was to die for. Service was very good. Ambiance was candlelight in a sports bar motif. We will definitely visit again and just stay with the traditional Italian fare.
