   The service was excellent. The food: Caesar salad was mediocre, my sea bass was just ok, dried rub with something then grilled on a bed of veggies (2 wedges of potatoes, a few carrots, and stringy broccolini), the Tiramisu was good. Two people $150 with one glass of Pinot (average) and tip, I would expect better - it was a disappointing dinner. I have had excellent Caesar here, don't know what happened, looked like a salad I could have made or came from a Caesar salad kit from Costco. I won't be back anytime soon. (Maybe they had a mediocre cooking staff on a Monday night?

   Great food and wonderful family environment. The fryer was broken so we could not get the Fritto Misto so we need to go back again!

   My husband and I ordered the Salmon. It was not even warm when served. Our son ordered pasta special and it was pipping hot. The server apologized and took our plates back to kitchen. Sometime later we received new salmon dinners that were hot and delicious ,but our son’s meal was finished. Our son’s pasta dish was a pasta with beef and sausages. The sausages were veal/pork but had very little flavor. Overall, it was not the best experience. Some restaurants would provide some compensation, but that didn’t happen.

   I ordered the pollo piccata, which was tender and flavorful. Everyone else really liked their entrees, and we shared a very large panettone with vanilla ice cream. We will be back!

   We recently had a disappointing dining experience due to poor service. Despite calling ahead to inform the restaurant that we’d be 15 minutes late and being told "okay" on the phone when we arrived, the host admonished us for not calling sooner and suggested we rush our meal to accommodate other guests. This comment set a negative tone for the evening. I understand that if we were too late and they couldn’t hold our table, it would have been better to be told that on the phone. I wouldn’t have paid so much money to feel unwelcome. After the meal, the server acknowledged the host’s inappropriate behavior; the experience had already been ruined. Dining out should feel welcoming, but this visit left us feeling undervalued and uncomfortable.

    I ordered spaghetti carbonara and they gave me linguine. I wouldn’t have been too bothered but it didn’t have much flavor. We will not be going back since there are some much better Italian restaurants in the area.
