This was our first time dining here. Went for my wife’s birthday along with our adult daughter. There was a little happy birthday card on the table (nice touch). The food was excellent. We had the cheese wheel pasta, chicken Parmesan and a pizza. The cheese wheel pasta was delicious and it was fun to watch the cooking process at the table. The crust on the pizza was fantastic (crispy and airy). I didn’t taste the chicken parm but was told it was very good as well. All were great and the portions were ample. The staff was friendly and very attentive and the atmosphere was intimate. Absolutely a great dining experience!
