We arrived very early for our 7 PM reservation, as we were coming from LI and couldn't judge traffic. The young woman who greeted us couldn't have been nicer. As soon as a table was available, she seated us to wait for the other 4 members of our family. Everyone was pleased with their food. Pasta was cooked perfectly and my grandson devoured his meat balls. My shrimp oreganta was fresh and delicious. Cannoli for dessert were crispy as they should be. Our waiter was attentive and very personable. If you need a restaurant near the GW Bridge, try Francos!

Food was not flavored well. I think it’s best to not have late reservation times since they do seem to be in the mood to serve so much for wanting a bar or restaurant vibe.
