    I made reservations weeks before for our wedding anniversary, requested a booth, which one was open, but the host said he couldn’t sit us there and put us at a table, which was also a 4-top, and there was a very cold draft. It was uncomfortable but we stayed because our server was good and ate with our winter coats on. It was a disappointing experience. I’m not sure we’ll go there again.

    The food is excellent. So are the cocktails. Service was slow tonight. But I’d still go back.

    The food was not good. Eggplant parm, too spicy, Caesar salad, lettuce was brown, Chicken parm heavily breaded. I would not recommend it.

    My husband I had a wonderful time and the food was extraordinary! The noise level was very high and made it a bit difficult to have conversation. However, later in our dinner the noise level dropped some! We highly suggest trying it out! Happy dining!

    Great atmosphere. Very good service. The bolognese was a little too sweet for my taste, and lacked crumbles of beef and pork to which I am accustomed.

    Well… Disappointed on our second visit. Our meals clearly sat for a period of time as both were just warm when they arrived. We went 15 to 20 minutes at a time not seeing our server. Was never asked about ordering a second glass of wine. Ordered coffee with dessert which ended up coming out separately long after dessert was done. Overall just a so-so experience for $147.00
