Half of our group (was a total of four of us) enjoyed their food. The restaurant was clean and bathroom smelled very pleasant. Pricing was fair for what was enjoyed. The focaccia bread was the star of the show for me. My guests enjoyed the shrimp scampi, but felt the portion was small and the salmon was delicious. I did taste a piece of the salmon and was jealous as I can confirm it was delicious...wonderfully seasoned and perfectly cooked. Con's: The other half of our party did not enjoy the food. Unfortunately, I was in that bunch. It was quite surprising as the menu is not robust at all; so our thought was that the items that ARE on the menu must be a delicious specialty. I had the pork chops with pasta and spinach. The pork chop was tough and the pasta was bland. The sauce that accompanied the meal was tasty and moved the overall meal from a 'no', to an 'ok'. Won't be back, but encourage you all to check them out as the other half of our table truly enjoyed their meals.

Pick your noodle, pick your sauce, pick your toppings. And the premixed offerings they put together are amazing.

The bartenders were all friendly, but Tom was particularly helpful. Checking to mate sure that everything was good and offering suggestions. I ordered steak in au gratin potatoes. He brought me cheese bread that was phenomenal. It was served with butter and some sort of sauce that I didn't try. I got a new york strip that was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The au gratin potatoes were shredded potatoes. They were okay but definitely not what I would have expected at a steakehouse. I would not order them again. They had carrot cake available for dessert and it was delicious.

Once again, Giancarlo's knocked it out of the park with our business dinner. We keep coming back…read morefor good reason: spacious parking (no anxiety-ridden ramps or stressful parallel parking on Buffalo streets), superb service (I love the place cards that introduce each server), and truly drool-worthy food. We ordered a variety of appetizers, and the meatball and Mediterranean platters remain my favorites. You must try their homemade pita--light, airy, and with just the right chew. They absolutely know how to do steak. My side of almond broccolini unexpectedly stole the show. The bright burst of lemon was the perfect complement, cutting through the richness of the mashed potatoes and filet. As for dessert? Hands down, the chocolate mousse cake. If you're getting it to go, be sure to ask for the coffee gelato before you leave--don't miss out on this perfectly smooth, rich treat. Our guests are still talking about their meals!

My friend and I decided to treat ourselves and get some REAL Italian food so we went to Trattoria…read moreAroma. Neither of us (both Italian Americans) was disappointed with our decision. She ordered the Pappardelle alla Bolognese, and reported that the Bolognese sauce was very tasty with just the right amount of meat, and the pappardelle, wide pasta strips, was cooked to perfection. I also ordered pappardelle, but mine was Pappardelle Del Piemonte, a magical combination of pasta with mushrooms, spinach and parmigiana with a touch of truffle oil in what appeared to be a small amount of broth. Absolutely delicious! The bread with its crisp crust and yet tender texture, served with a delicate olive oil for dipping, provided the perfect accompaniment. We each indulged in some classic Italian desserts and they and the coffee served, were the best I've had in a long time. The restaurant was comfortable with the exception of the small slightly wobbly table at which we were seated. The good service and excellent food made up for the slight flaw! I highly recommend this restaurant. I will be back.

Interesting - the pizzas were prepared by an Indian chef who was manning the stone oven. He came over to meet us on his way out at 10 PM. He was very friendly and we enjoyed meeting him. The calamari appetizer $19 was delicious but pricey. Alcohol always runs up the bill. Two glasses of wine and one glass of Prosecco put our bill to $82 with tax. I liked the Italian pottery decor. The bar area looked inviting and nice with the triangular shaped wooden shelving and yellow lights. Our server was friendly and helpful. I would come back for good Italian food. Probably for a special occasion.

We were given one thing of bread which was about 2 half loafs that were never refilled, it also took forever to get water refilled. I orderd penne alla vodka and received linguine instead with no explanation or warning, another person also received a different pasta instead of penne. Overall, the food was fine, it just took forever and was not exactly what was ordered. The tables around us who had 2 or 3 people also had to wait a while for their food, so it wasn't just that we had a larger party.

She answered all of our questions, brought everything out correctly and quickly and was great throughout. There were several appetizers and dishes at our table. Everyone raved about their dishes. The house dressings were great. The fresh bread came with a house maid flavored butter. I ordered the Frutti Di Mare-the flavor was great and they didn't skimp on the seafood. Cute, comfortable atmosphere.

There's two dining areas, I can only speak of one side to the left of the main doors. This side was decent size and had decent spacing of the tables. The service is excellent, but as many mentioned it is a bit slow. But for me, it was ok because you're not rushed at all during your stay. As for the food, I was throughly pleased on every entree I had. I would say though, I would've loved if they had a cocktails menu. I was surprised to see only wines and beer are offered here. But even still, that wouldn't deter me from coming back and becoming a regular. FILETTO AL CARBONE | $55.00 Grilled 8 oz.

We went there for a special occasion earlier this year with a newly arrived family from South…read moreAmerica, whi wanted to celebrate a birthday at an Italian restaurant. The birthday girl wanted risotto and this was the only restaurant that offered it near us. Beautiful ambience. Very well received when we arrived, having reservations. A very nice initial waitress. Food arrived, and both pasta dishes were very salty. Made a comment to the waitress who came come and waitress said that unfortunately, that has been mentioned already to the cook on prior occasions. No attempt to rectify the matter with dishes. We did not make a big deal out of it. We ate it. The portion of the risotto looked like an appetizer, although we were told it was actually a dinner portion. Price for two pasta dinners, the special of the day, the risotto, a glass of wine, and a beer s was nearly $200 if not a little bit more. The couple picked up the tap, walked up and gave the waitress the check. Upon their return, I asked if they included a tip. If not, we would leave it on the table. As we were discussing that, a separate waitress, not the one that served as, came with an aggravated look on her face, slapped the ticket back down on the table and almost in anger stated.. You forgot to leave a tip. We will be back for it when you leave the tip. In shock, with a restaurant full of diners, I was definitely taken aback by that attitude. After I took a deep breath, I said.. these are new arrivals to the US, and when we realize that they did not add the tip to the bill, we were going to leave cash on the table. That is exactly what we did. And we left. I did not think that attitude was appropriate, especially in a dining area where the guests sit very close to one another and can hear everything. I sent an email to the restaurant about that incident and I never heard back. In my opinion, I have had much better service and much better food at other places. We were looking forward to a nice experience for this couple. They had no complaints as to their food. I did not interpret to them what was going on with regard to the second waitress, her attitude and what she was asking for. I did not want to make them feel bad, or obviously, not make a scene of any kind. Not necessary. And that's my experience.
