The service was impeccable. Our server was great, but the star of the evening was Ava. There was an initial problem with our arrangements, but Ava went out of her way to handle it seamlessly--so much so that the rest of our party didn't even realize there had been a glitch until we joked about it on our way out. Service like that is rare and deeply refreshing. Every dish hit the mark: Flank Steak Crostini: Super tender and beautifully marinated. Calamari Fritti: An unexpected delight--pan-fried and seasoned rather than heavily breaded. Margherita Pizza: A generous, delicious personal pie. Mafaldine Bolognese: Perfectly al dente pasta with rich sauce. Frutta di Mare Fra Diavolo: The house-made fettuccine paired beautifully with fresh seafood. The ambiance is relaxed yet upscale compared to most Cooperstown spots. We will definitely return.

They stayed over & let me get my order well after closing time...who else would do that! I had called to cancel but they convinced me to get there when I could. My order was excellent, warm, & not all dried out from waiting. The Passarellas do business the old fashion way, their customers are their top priority & they treat them all like family. All ingredients are super fresh, top quality, & they're not stingy with toppings. The only place I will get pizza in this county!!

This is a mixed review. We took my Uncle out for his birthday here as a group of 10. The ambience…read moreis old school Adirondack with lots of wood mixed with Italian American. We were served drinks quickly and brought a delicious loaf of Italian bread. The wine and cocktails were fine. Our salads followed shortly with only 2 choices of dressing, a strong balsamic or ranch dressing. The salad was ok. Some mixed greens and a couple cherry tomatoes. Then we waited and waited and waited. It took well over an hour for our entrees to arrive. We were not checked on during the long wait. When we finally got our food it was mixed reviews. I ordered the scallops and was surprised that was all I got. No side pasta or vegetable at all. It looked pretty with dual sauces but the taste was just ok. I tried some one else's side of pasta with marinara and it was acidic for my taste. Two of my sons enjoyed their dishes. One a mushroom cream pasta and one a chicken riggie pasta. Both were good. My niece tasted too much condensed milk in her Alfredo but enjoyed the shrimp that came with it. The cod that my sister in law got had a good texture and taste. My aunt didn't like her pasta Juliano dish. My Uncle loved his meal. This place is a bit too pricey for what you get and they definitely need to improve the service time.

Had a craving for Italian so stopped in when I was in town…read more Upon arrival they have a small parking lot next to the restaurant but there is a parking lot across the street attached to a vacant building folks were using. There was a separate bar and dining area for folks to chooses from. I opted for the dining area, I was alone and it took a while to be seated because they didn't want to seat me at an empty table in the middle of the dining room. When seated I was a table on the edge. The space looked accustomed for larger groups and had many large and small parties. The light in the space was a bit low in comparison to the bright sun outside coming through the windows. My server was very attentive and I was quickly able to order. The home made loaf of italian bread came out warm and was light and fluffy. I ordered the Utica Greens and Shrimp Riggies. While I enjoyed I had expected there to be a bit of heat in each dish which they didn't have. i ended up adding red pepper flakes to both to get it to my liking.

There was not any parking available, the entire parking lot was full. We decided to go down the street for a bit. I was dropped at the door and the crowd was to the door. After a bit I realized no one was moving and this was just the wait for tables. I was able to push through to the greeter and let hostess know we had arrived. I then attempted to use the bathroom that was also overflowing with patrons. By the time I was able to sift through the crowd again our table was available in the lounge. We had a party of four that could barely squash into the tiny booth and a guests coat from another table was blocking a portion of the very small opening to the booth. By this time I was ready to call it an evening, the congested area was just very uncomfortable. Large parties just standing in the lounge area many with small children. It would have been more appropriate to have families not utilizing the lounge wait outside if there was no waiting space in the corridor.Our server was friendly and very efficient. I had a salad with crumbly blue cheese. Surf and Turf medium rare. The steak was very rare. Other guests had sampler, and pasta with meatballs. The food was good other than my steak being rare. I had a pomegranate martini for my second cocktail. My portion of the bill with tip was $120 for surf and turf and one martini. The first round of drinks was paid for at the bar. I thought it was a bit steep for what I received but it was a holiday so why not treat yourself! I did purchase a $50 GC as well and it seemed I was going to have to get back to hostess stand, fortunately our server was able to accommodate the purchase for me! There was no way of getting through the crowd again. It was now after 7pm and the commotion was increasing. As we exited there was a loud dispute and two vehicles yelling profanities at each other this went on for nearly five minutes as we were trying to get to our vehicle that was in the line of fire. Several other guests also seemed to be caught up in this stand off. Fortunately the dispute was broken up peacefully. I don't think I will be coming back on a holiday, to say the least.

The waitress said no problem, just give me a minute. She had us seated in just a few minutes. Five stars for just that. Our party ordered the Meat Sauce Spaghetti, Chicken Marsala, Lasagna and The Ravioli. Fresh hot bread with the house dipping sauce was brought to the table just prior to the salads. The bread was fresh and delicious. The salad dressing is made in house and was amazing. The entrees were huge and didn't disappoint. Everything was so fresh and made with love and respect. We were looking for an Italian meal and we left throughly pleased. The restaurant is located in a residential neighborhood. Parking is not the best, but the restaurant has almost a family style appeal. As you enter, there is a bar area with several tables and on toward the restaurant is a drop down area which is another dining area. There is also an outdoor area, but not sure when it would be used. All in all, I would highly recommend. Great Service, Great Food and Memories that will last a lifetime. Thanks Again!!!
