The food and service was amazing! The only issue I had was that it was so loud that it was difficult to hear the server when we were speaking to each other. Keep in mind it was at 6pm on a Friday though, so I think more noise is to be expected at that time in a busy restaurant.

A joyous experience. The other diners seemed to cherish this place, looked like they’d come before. The many people who took part in serving us were all great hosts: the food was clearly described as it arrived and questions were answered with an interested attitude. It was clear, the servers lived this restaurant and their jobs. We have brought friends here befire and will do again. It is a gem.

We hit this place on a Monday and most of their pastas are available for $14.95. The three of us had different options. Spaghetti and meatballs - linguine pesto - spaghetti alio. All very good. Service was good. The lighting was a bit bright but eventually they turned it down to a better level.
