We arrived about 12:30, and were seated promptly. The dining room was about 1/3 full but we were…read moregreeted quickly by our server. We got menus and specials and water. The one server never missed a beat even as more tables were seated. I ordered Nonna's Meatballs and a house salad. The bread and table spicy oil came out soon after and the rolls were soft and buttery....it would have been easy to finish them all! Nonna's 2 giant meatballs are served in a bowl with tomato sauce and a nice size portion of ricotta cheese. I enjoyed the meatballs very much. The texture is a little soft, but it didn't bother me... I thought the flavor was very good. The tomato sauce is simple with mild seasoning. The salad was a good size and everything was very fresh...the balsamic vinaigrette was a little sweet. Our server kept our water glasses full and asked us several times how our meals were.

My friend and I had lunch today, Thursday. The food was ok…read more The olive oil I don't believe was real and had no flavor or color. I had the Orecchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe. Plenty of food but it was drowned in an oil base sauce with absolutely no flavor. We came because we had heard it was very good. Sorry but I was disappointed. The service was great, waitress was attentive but not overbearing. The ambiance was boring and I felt like I was in a mall restaurant, which it is. I've been in mall restaurants before and felt like I was somewhere else other than a mall. Are heritage are both from the south of Italy and our meal was a abysmal.

It would've helped if we checked the dining hours. Got there 15 minutes ahead of opening, which was fine. Sat down in a nice open-aired dining room, Clean, airy, white table cloth. The place filled up quickly. Our server Rachel was quick to come over with a warm invite, water, and brought bread, butter, and oil. If you like Italian food, this is a place you should hit up. Huge variety of dishes, including a wide array of appetizers, soups, and sides. I'm a huge fan of eggplant so couldn't resist. Our service said it was excellent. She was right. It comes one of two ways in that you can get it as a dinner or à la cart. I went with à la cart which included a house salad and a side dish of pasta. Saw Utica greens on the appetizers and couldn't resist. They were fantastic. You can get them mild medium or hot. Medium it was. Strongly recommend these if you are a fan of Utica greens. Prepared to perfection. As the eggplant approached the table I was impressed how large of a serving it was. So big I couldn't eat the whole thing. The eggplant was outstanding. It was thinly sliced. It melts in your mouth. It's smothered in their red marinara sauce. The sauce is on the sweet side, which is how I prefer. Excellent! With the à la cart meal, you get a choice of a side dish. Being a big fan of Angel hair pasta, the decision was an easy one. About the side salad, it's a good size salad to accompany your dinner. A lot of fresh veggies, carrots, red cabbage, tomatoes, and olives. A sign of a good restaurant is one you'll go back to. We will be back.

It doesn't make sense to me when they should stick to what they are best at. Highly recommend the lobster Mac, beef stroganoff, gnocchi, and anything with the homemade pasta.

We've gone many times but this last experience was worth noting. We went for lunch because they do have lunch & dinner. I asked for lemon with my water & they brought out a generous amount. The toasted bread to share was still warm & toasted just right. I really loved the garlic butter that came with it. We ordered 2 meals to share so we could have a little bit of variety & both were cooked perfectly. Haddock francaise & chicken parm were both cooked perfectly in their respective ways. Great sauces. Loved the option of soup or salad to start. Just an appreciated experience.
