Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing from start to finish. After traveling all day,…read morewe arrived for an early dinner, between 4:30 and 5:00 p.m. as Yelp showed the restaurant was open. We were met by the owner, who, while allowing us to come in, was noticeably unfriendly and came across as rude, which set a negative tone for the meal. We chose this restaurant because of the outstanding Yelp reviews, especially the praise for the pasta dishes. One of the main reasons we ordered the Cacio e Pepe was because several reviews described it being prepared in an authentic cheese wheel. That was not our experience. It was not prepared as expected, and spinach had been added to the dish even though it was not shown in any of the photos we had seen beforehand. Because of that unexpected ingredient, our daughter wouldn't eat it, which was very disappointing. We also ordered the spicy chicken, and it was, unfortunately, the worst chicken my husband and I have ever had. It contained a lot of bones, was extremely fatty, with very little meat, and was simply unpleasant to eat. Considering the quality of the food, the discrepancy between what was advertised and what was served, and the unfriendly service, we did not feel the meal was worth the price. We left disappointed and would not return or recommend this restaurant based on our experience.

Started with the perfectly fried shrimp and calamari plate. It was great. Next was the special sea bass plate with potatoes and mixed vegetables.

We had the triple chocolate cake for dessert. We had been wanting seafood and we are glad that we waited.

The food was fantastic not just kind of fantastic but really fantastic. I said that three times for a reason, it was filled with Italians to start. Coming over from Greece I have the mentality of ordering a lot of food, the friends are with were not used to that. The first thing I ordered was. Chickery greens cooked to perfection and a little spicy. I ordered 2 croquettes one that was a stuffed zucchini flower with cheese and it was so good. The other croquette was potato and cheese and it was so nice. Olive brochette salty and oh so olivey. Spaghetti carbonara was full bodied and a little heavy but tasty. The spaghetti marinara was heaven just what you think of when one thinks of Italy. Green Salad just ok, but the mushroom and ham calzone wrap was devine. I'm already planning my next trip back with my friends bring more friends. The pictures don't do justice.

My wife had the caccio e Pepe, salted cod and pavloma with kiwi and coconut. Just marvelous. Highly recommend. Worth the drive or taxi. A bit out of the way so not filled with obnoxious tourists. Five stars
