    I’ve had lunch. I had The pick two lunch which included a half meatball sandwich and a small Caesar salad. It was tasty and good and plenty filling. My two other companions enjoy their food as well. I’m sure that I will be back sometime in the future.

    Not the best experience. The table had a loose leaf, where my husbands plate, silverware, glass, kept sliding down. Table was at the actual kitchen door. My chair was in the carpet right in front of the kitchen, right in the passage. They could have put us (larger party of 5) at a more secluded location (tables were available), and left that squeezed spot for a smaller party. The server was too fast, we wanted to enjoy the food and ambiance - no time for that! It felt like fast food in an Italian restaurant setting. Food was very tasty, but nothing remarkable about it either. Probably will not be back - too many great options at the mall to have to endure that.

    Their appetizer’s were AMAZING! Their spinach & artichoke al forno, calamari and antipasto board were the talk of our table party. Everything was very filling and flavorful 10/10, will order again in the future. Staff was amazing and accommodating providing excellent recommendations. The prisoner was a great wine recommendation from our server who listened to our likes and dislikes on taste of a wine as well as providing an alternative mini entree for the toddler with us. You can’t go wrong with anything from their main dishes we had a party of 17 who ordered a little bit of everything and it was delicious. Desserts we had the apple crostada , crème brûlée, and scoops of their vanilla ice cream all were delicious. Chef and staff outdid themselves by far our favorite Christmas’s dinner held

    They did a good job getting us to our table quickly. The holiday decor was beautiful. They changed the menu and that was a surprise, but it was really good food.

    We celebrated my twin’s birthday and it just happens to be during the holiday season so unfortunately, the restaurant was very crowded and we were seated next to a corporate event in the middle of the restaurant which created a lot of traffic as that corporate event kept getting up and down and running into me. The service: our waiter was great, but the support wasn’t there and again it’s the holiday season so they were busy. They have a lot of guests - large parties, and our party of 7 never got drink refills in 2.5 hours. I never got asked if I wanted more wine etc . We didn’t have enough utensils/plates (we had reservations with a Ute guest count) we had to ask for that and plates so it was the back up that wasn’t quite there The food was great, but because of the holidays, the experience wasn’t what it could’ve been.
