   This is a great NYC style restaurant in a small suburban town. Food, ambiance and service were first class. Best Pork Chop I've ever had, and also enjoyed my wife's Pappardelle with mushrooms... but you better like mushrooms.

   The food and atmosphere is top tier. I felt as though I was enjoying my grandmothers cooking all over again. The atmosphere is warm and comforting.

   Great Italian food in an upscale neighborhood restaurant. The restaurant can be noisy at times as it is quite popular. It has a full bar and a bar scene as well. Cocktails are good and there is a great wine list. We opened with an appetizer of calamari and shrimp, lightly breaded and served in a Fra Diavolo sauce. The seafood was perfectly cooked, the sauce had a kick, but not too spicy, and it was big enough for four people. For entrees, my wife had the Pollo Rustica, roasted chicken over polenta with a sausage and mushroom sauce. I had a Veal Chop milanese. Both were outstanding, perfectly cooked and the portions were large. We took a pass on dessert as we were full.

   We went for our anniversary and were disappointed. For the price of the food, we expected something really good. The martini was also very foamy and the filet was average, along with the lobster. We were very let down by the overall experience and were also placed right by the bar and a trash can. After all the hype and seeing even the cast members of the Jersey Shore go there, we expected a lot more. It was overall disappointing.

   The food was delicious, however it was so loud you couldn’t hear the person sitting right next you.

    This was our second visit and we introduced friends and everyone was very happy. The aroma that greets you as you walk in sets the tone that the food will be delicious. Many specials as appetizers and main courses. It might be easier if they were written. We shared sliding and zucchini flowers to start. Entrees were chicken franchise, sea bass (which i think was the winner), pappardell with mushrooms and spaghetti cacao de Peppi. Lots to go home as portions are very generous. Too stuffed for dessert. For us, this place has been quite the find.
