    Ate here when they first opened and it was exceptional! Last night, the service was mediocre, the noise level was high and the food was not as good. The first visit we sat next to a table with two food critics so I am assuming we got superior service due to that fact. I ordered the Italian salad on both occasions and felt the dressing had changed. Two of us ordered the Shrimp Fra Diavolo. While the shrimp was excellent, the linguini had very little sauce so it was dry. Another ordered the Chicken Parmesan and that was wonderful. I can recommend the short rib lasagna. That is to die for! The noise level was high so we had trouble communicating. Beautiful decor.

    Food was delicious. Service initially a little slow. Noise level was high including a terrific piano player. Liked it well enough to go back again soon!

    Food & service were good. Our only issue was we were seated right next to the piano and we had 2 seniors dining with us. It was impossible to talk or hear a thing. The music was beautiful but just way too loud where we were seated.

    I travel to Italy twice a year and eat at both 5 & 4 star restaurants. This food is a good attempt but misses the mark for an authentic Italian experience. The Vodka Penne sauce was way too rich and is very Americanized. I'm dying for an authentic Italian restaurant in AZ and sadly this misses the mark. Glad my Italian friends were not with me as they would've laughed in my face.

    Outstanding restaurant … busy but the service is impeccable! We had dinner for the first time and invite close friends and everyone enjoyed their dinner. It was a great first time experience. Dessert was meh….. a good cheescake would have been better than the strawberry /creme weird dessert or the over fancy tiramisu. Hey Joey get a cheesecake on the menu!! That would match the excellence of the food offered!
