    Went on Valentine’s Day. We were given a time limit. We did not delay ordering but struggled to finish eating before the time limit. We felt somewhat rushed. The service was attentive and friendly. The food was good.

    Server was excellent but actual service was a tad slow. Food was excellent. As the restaurant filled, it got pretty loud but that was towards the end of our meal.

    3rd time to eat here. Hesitant from our last dinner experience here but we tried it again. We probably will not be back. Our drinks took 20 minutes to arrive and was a room temperature martini when we received it. The glass was filled 1/3 with old olives. (14.00 each) Bread was 9.95 when you normally get that free at other Italian restaurants. Caprese salad was average along with the chicken parm, which was cold when it came out. Shrimp and grits were good. Was thinking about dessert but the couple next to us waited 20 minutes on a dessert to go. 120.00 later ,,, a big pile of disappointment.

    Ambience in restaurant was great and the manager that seated us was very friendly. The waitress did not give us the specials and the drinks took a long while to get to us. The pasta I found bland- next time I’d order differently.

    The food is always good. Less formal than sister restaurant Amore and a bit more limited menu. Our server was fantastic although they seemed to be a little short staffed in that it took awhile to get cocktails and refills. May have been a bar issue? Will definitely go back.

    Our food arrived promptly (entrees before we could finish appetizers) and all was delicious. Unfortunately , the restaurant was very understaffed and all tables were filled. We were almost finished with our entrees before our waitress refilled our empty water glasses and took our initial drink order. We noted she was also tending bar as well.
