   Food was amazing. Server was super nice but extremely slow. Did not check back at all. But we still enjoyed our dinner.

   First time visiting and definitely will be back. Everything we had from start to finish was delicious; food quality is top notch and service sitting at the bar for dinner was outstanding as well. Overall made for a great Saturday night.

   Menus were missing pages and second round of menus had a page missing. It appeared no one checked them before bringing them to the table. The waiter was either extremely busy or he failed to serve the toasted raviolis and we canceled the order. Food was excellent.

   If we were to ever win the lottery, we would love to hire “Chef” away from her own restaurant so that we could enjoy her meals everyday. She’s that good!

   The veal chop was fantastic and everyone in my party enjoyed their meal. Drink prices were high.

   This is our second visit in about 3 months. Both times exceeded expectations. The food, service and ambience are excellent. The chef comes by to make sure everything is perfect. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended!

   We should have know known when we checked in at 6:55 for our 7pm reservation. First they started to take us back and then stopped and said they needed to clean off our table. In the meantime a walk in showed up and another 7pm reservation showed up. The other reservation was sat immediately. We waited 10-15 minutes for them to “clear off our table” (which was a 2 top ?) Then we were sat at the same time as 3 other tables around us. We sat another 10 minutes before our server came by to take our drink order. It is now almost 7:30 before we even have our drinks. He left for 25 minutes and only came by to take our order after I stopped someone to send our waiter to our table. He takes our very simple order (toasted rav, fettuccine, and a salad) and then we don’t see him for another 20 minutes. Around 8:20 he comes by to see if I got my salad (no). Long story short - to get 2 drinks, a salad, toasted rav, and pasta took over 2 hours. He only came by 4 times total and 2 of those times were because we hadn’t seen him in over 25 minutes and I stopped people to send him to us. And of the 4 tables that were sat around us at the same time, 3 of them eat and paid before we even got our food. Could this be because our server was new or untrained? Maybe. But no one from management checked on us either (unlike a table near us who clearly knew someone because they got their food and check quickly). The food was very good and came out very hot (which lead me to believe the last time I asked for our server he rushed back and pressed the kitchen for our order). But by that time I was so tired of waiting I had him box it up while my husband eat his toasted ravs and bring me the bill. So in short - if the quality of the food that is more important over service then sure go here. I would wait until the kitchen and wait staff figure it out.

    This is a really nice and authentic Italian restaurant. Easy parking. Nice ambiance. Appropriately upscale. Attentive service. Engaged management. Many good menu and wine choices. Excellent food.
