Overall an awesome experience - the food was great, the waitress was attentive and friendly, and the ambiance was wonderful. It was a nice restaurant and people were there, but it was not overly packed like some others can be. We will definitely be going back because there are so many more things we want to try.

My favorite restaurant on SI. The eggplant parm with the spicy vodka pasta is amazing. We also had a gorgonzola and apple salad and octopus appetizer that everyone enjoyed and the wait staff was a 10. When the table wanted a bottle of red wine they came over and thoroughly explained all of the options, region grown and gave samples of each to try. Definitely recommend for date night, GNO, anything at all.
