I took my kids for my birthday and they both loved it. Alberto was our server and he did a good job taking care of us. We all loved the food though it was a little pricier than advertised. Two of us ordered shrimp diavolo which was fine but you had to order any pasta with it as an extra item or the portion would have been really small. We ordered half a pasta serving and that was at least a decent meal but that meant extra money. The ambiance was nice and it wasn't too loud. I did get a free dessert since it was my birthday which was nice. There was a large selection of wine available and you could get a wine club membership for a monthly fee. We all had dessert and those were actually rather large sized items that were quite filling and tasted delicious.

Grace waited on us and was excellent. She went over all the specials and answered any menu questions that we had about specific entree items. The vibe was fun and lots of sports in the TVs. Wanted to add - Bathrooms were extremely clean. We will be back! Oh, the twin hostess were super sweet and changed my reservation up 30 minutes because we got there early. They are super nice and friendly.
