   We had a really lovely meal here. Service was a bit slow, the food was amazing. The hostess was unfriendly. I would 100 % go back and recommend it to others. I loved the location. Also I haven’t had better eggplant parm since I was in Italy.

   I arrived at this restaurant with my family and checked OpenTable beforehand to see if a reservation was necessary. I noticed plenty of open slots, so I walked in and approached the hostess stand, requesting a table for four. To my surprise, the hostess told me the wait would be between an hour and an hour and a half. Confused—since I had just seen open reservations on the app—I agreed to wait but decided to double-check. Sure enough, I found multiple open reservations and booked the next available one, which was within five minutes. When I returned to the hostess and mentioned my reservation, she seemed visibly annoyed and confused. After confirming it on her tablet, she whispered something to the manager, but I assume she had no choice but to honor it. However, instead of seating us, she told me to step aside while she “prepped the table” and proceeded to seat other guests who walked in with reservations. At this point, it was clear that my family and I were being punished for simply following the proper process. After a few more minutes, I asked how much longer we would have to wait. Her response? That I had just made the reservation, and that was “wrong,” so I would still have to wait. Wow. For future guests: If the hostess tells you there’s a long wait, check the reservation app—because they may not be giving you the full story. This review isn’t for the rest of the staff, who provided great service, but specifically for the hostess, who either doesn’t know how to do her job correctly or was intentionally making the experience difficult.
