    I ordered the Chicken Alla Fortuna and pretty much everything on my dish was dry. The artichoke leaves were dry (and I needed to spit them out), the proscuitto & chicken were dry. My husband said his clams in his linguini & clams dish were great, except the linguini was drowning in the liquid. After placing our order and sitting for about 20 minutes, we had to ask for bread and the peppers/onions. We had not been to this restaurant in about one year and now I think I remember why...

    Service was unacceptable. Table was not ready at time of reservation even though there was a table ready. Had to wait 15-20 minutes. Then was immediately rushed into placing orders as soon as we sat. No one returned to see how the meal was or refill water. Will not be retuning

    Very good food. We all took some home as the amounts are good sized. Service was great, waiter was very attentive. We go there often as we have always had a positive experience.

    The food was outstanding and the portions were huge! The people were so nice to us and so patient with our tribe of children. It was very pretty in there, nice ambience. We would definitely go back!

    Food was wonderful! Great value for the price, portions are very generous. I had the tagliatelle and it was outstanding. Had to have had a pound of pasta. Staff was very pleasant and attentive, would definitely return in the future.
