The lasagna and 5 cheese ravioli were both great. I will be thinking about that sweet honeydew wine forever. Our waitress, Sophia, was wonderful!

First time here and loved it! The focaccia was fantastic! Had the carbonara and lasagna and both were very good. The tiramisu was excellent! 1/2 price bottle wine on Wednesday’s was a nice bonus. The service was paced well with every table in the place seated at the time we were dining. Would definitely eat here again!
