    Everything we got was delicious and our waitress was so kind and helpful with recommendations! I will say the tables around the room felt cramped because we were sat right next to people on either side of us and it was very tight. Other than that, service was great. We enjoyed the whipped eggplant, ceasar salad, soprassata pizza, Bianca pizza, vodka pasta, and the pavlova. The pavlova was unexpected- slightly sweet and sour with different textures. Definitely will be back.

    So the food was amazing. The shirt rib lasagna was simply amazing. So good. The kids spaghetti and meatball was kind of bland, but that could be because it was a kids meal, but, other than that, it was fine. The new menus that look like encyclopedia were kind of bulky but different. I think that they should rethink the Encyclopedia menu type thing. The ambience was just amazing as well. You would never know that it was the old streets of New York restaurant when you walk in. Our server wasn’t the greatest unfortunately, forgot a few things never got bread to the table, took a little while to get and after dinner coffee, we had to remind him a couple times, but he was very friendly. The management staff was very nice. The passing out of Champagne while you’re waiting for your table was kind of nice different that was complementary. Overall, it was a great experience.

    We were celebrating two birthdays and I cannot even express how great of an experience we’ve had. Our server was amazing, kind, and took care of us despite of how busy it was. Great place with funny Christmas decor. If you’re considering it, I would really recommend it
