    Had a celebration in the atrium for my mom's 90th birthday. First thought when I arrived to…read morefinalize plans, was this may not work. The restaurant/bar was to the left and a huge banquet hall upstairs. But, it turned out great!! The only noise was my family and our music. Our hostess, Stacey, was so amazing!! She was available to us and the bar area. Always had a smile and asking what we needed. Jason was also so helpful! I would definitely reserve this place for our next family function!!

    We had a gift certificate for River City and chose to stop in before going to a show nearby. On a…read moreThursday evening around 630, the place was pretty empty. We chose a high top by the bar and were told there was no table service, but the bartender ended up coming over to wait on us anyway. The inside of the restaurant is pretty, spacious, and has a lot of natural light due to the floor to ceiling windows. The food was honestly just ok. The baked artichoke dip with pita bread was good (7/10). It was creamy, cheesy, and the pita was warm with a nice chew to it. The gnocchi left something to be desired, in my opinion. The sauce was a little bland and the dish could've used some cheese or something to boost the flavor. The side salad was as expected. The burger was our favorite. It was juicy, the bacon was crisp, and the BBQ sauce wasn't too sweet. The tots were crispy and lightly salted. Parking is on the street out front. We found a spot about a block or two down and didn't have an issue with the short walk.

    Good location, great atmosphere and friendly staff. There are two eateries within the historic…read morebuilding: Avenue Eats (burgers and sandwiches) and The Wood Fired Pizza Co. You order at the counter, find a seat and they bring your order out to you. We were there on a Saturday night and it was packed. Seating is first come with a bar, individual tables and large communal table. It was busy so we did have to wait a short time for someone to vacate a table big enough for eight. We really wanted burgers but they informed us there was a 45 minute wait on food from them. They did tell us the pizza place was only about a 15 minute wait. We decided to stay and order pizza and weren't disappointed. The margherita pizza was very tasty with a nice amount of mozzarella cheese and their special with all the meats and hot honey was excellent. They were having a magic show on the stage side of the hall which the kids seemed to be enjoying. The only thing that was a bit confusing is you enter the room and have to walk through the room to the back to order at the windows but it's not clear how it works. Especially if it's packed and people are standing everywhere and blocking the windows. We stood at the entrance behind another party that were there before us trying to figure out if they had to wait to be seated or where to go after entering. A sign instructing you to keep walking and order at the windows would prevent people from just standing in the doorway.

    Fantastic I like…read moretotally flew by the seat of my pants when I planed the West Virginia portion of our trip. Wheeling seemed to be somewhere in the vicinity of our drive to Morgantown tomorrow so I decided to stay the night. Looking for a place for dinner, I stumbled upon this place on Yelp in wheeling. Little did I know what an iconic place this is. We arrived at 5:15 on a Wednesday evening bc we are getting old. A couple leaving at 5:15 made us see our future. We were fortunately seated immediately. The inside is SO CUTE. I can't get enough of it. It felt like such an authentic Italian experience. Our server was incredible. So nice, personable, helpful. We started with our beverage orders. I went with a little something off their cocktail menu the elderflower martini which, exactly as I expected, was way more like spiked juice than a "martini" but I wouldn't want it any other way. Don't think I wasn't intrigued by the fried cheese but we have been eating a fair amount of that lately so instead of offering an app, I opted for an entree (stuffed rigatoni) and a side of broccoli. GF ordered fettuccine with red clam sauce. She got a house salad and I didn't for some reason. The broccoli was seasoned wonderfully but the texture wasn't as crisp as I would have liked. The rigatoni and the house sauce was ORGASMIC. That sauce is incredible I would gladly buy it by the jar. The rigatoni were al dente pillows of creamy ricotta heaven. Spectacular. GF regarding her red clam sauce pasta, "delicious". We also ordered the tiramisu to go so stay tuned on that.

    Great food and service! It was my first time here and I really enjoyed it. The restaurant is small…read morebut cozy with tons of old pictures hung up on the walls giving it that true authentic Italian vibe. Our waitress was friendly and went above and beyond the whole time we were there. They give you bread and butter with your meal and it was really good. I ordered wedding soup and ate every last bite or sip of it. For my entree I went with the classic spaghetti and meatballs and it was delicious. The sauce was perfect and they sell jars of it that you can take home with you. I had a great experience here and will definitely be back.
