We have eaten there several times. Everything was very good. Most important, although they had originally assigned us a very noisy table despite my request for a quiet one, they allowed us to choose a table in a quiet corner and that made for a huge difference.

If you want authentic Italian food, go to Tarominas! The food is the best. Great wait staff and the drinks are professionally made. Always a great time and highly recommend Tarominas for a date night, family night, or for a girls night out. Great time!
