The calamari was a perfect appetizer with a mix of balsamic drizzle and spicy peppers. We split the side of meatballs and they were full of flavor that was incredible. Portions are huge and the chicken piccata did not disappoint. We ended our meal with a espresso martini and split the tiramisu. A perfect ending to an amazing meal. Next time I really want to try the pizza as many ordered that around us and it looked delicious. I cannot wait to return. Thank you to the hard working wait staff that also made the evening so nice!

We're spending a few days in the area and decided on an early dinner here after checking in at our…read morehotel. The ambiance of the restaurant is great, very warm rustic feel and I loved the look of the big windows at the back of the dining room with the springtime trees in bloom outside. Started with some cocktails and warm bread with olive oil. We decided on a margherita pizza to split as an appetizer along with some Parmesan fries. My boyfriend got gnocchi for his entree while I got eggplant Parmesan. Boyfriend really loved his gnocchi, he commented on how soft and pillowy it was and finished the whole bowl; he also gave me a bite of it and can also concur that the quality of the gnocchi they use is great. My eggplant parm was pretty good; not my favorite one that I've ever had, but still good. It's also a very sizable portion so I had plenty to take home. The pizza was probably the highlight of the meal for me, absolutely delicious and would definitely return for that pizza alone. We got a dessert special to go, and they also offer complimentary limoncello shots to finish off your time there. To top it all off, the service here was personable, attentive and overall excellent. This is definitely a place for us to always keep on our radar whenever we're in the area.

Would come again if this was our last resort

When I got the salad home we realized it wasn't even a Greek salad. No olives, peperonconi and FETA cheese. so what we discovered is they just provided Sub quality chicken salad in place of the Greek and the chicken was over cooked. Funny thing here is they charged me $19.99 because I added rubber chicken. (THAT SALAD WAS ONLY $12.99) on their fake menu , and not even a Greek style salad. People you should study the menu and check before you leave this place. you may get mice in place of chicken. or worse. cat in place of meatballs. Who knows. If they don't even know what their own menu is. I don't get it.

The girl she was yelling at seemed beside herself and embarrassed. I felt bad for her. I live out of state but have family who lives in the Preston/Griswold area. I used to like to come here because of the good food and friendly service but I think from now on when I'm in the area, I'll bring my business elsewhere. I've been a server for 12 years and I could never imagine treating a paying customer that way! It's sad because I always love to support local businesses but this just isn't one that I can see myself continuing to do so..

The staff was still as pleasant and lively as ever. The owner was there also came up to greet us with a huge smile. The waiter Charlie had to come to our table a few times because we were distracted with cheerful conversations. Nevertheless, he was pleasant the entire time. We settled for Hawaiian pizza, two chicken Parmesan entres, and a Chicken Cacciatore Pizza. I will highlight that it was a lot of food. Chicken parm was perfectly crispy and great amount of sauce. However the winner and surprised for me was the Chicken Cacciatore Pizza. Wow it was like they really made a mini Chicken Cacciatore dish into a pizza. The flavors and ingredients were all there. The onions, peppers and mushrooms were still so crunchy but flavorful I was taken aback. I would have thoughts those veggies would have over cooked. I have been here many times and love their BBQ Pizza and Chicken Buffalo. I was so glad I tried something different this time. Here you will love the food and the people.

There's something about seeing the cooks working the line that adds another layer to the experience. It feels lively, energetic, and authentic. We started with a variety of appetizers because, honestly, everything on the menu sounded amazing. First came the bread service with two olive oils. The bread was light and airy, with just enough chew, and it soaked up the oil and sauce like it knew exactly what its job was. Next up were the meatballs, served in a rich tomato sauce with ricotta and shaved Parmigiano. The meatballs had a unique flavor thanks to the sausage mixed into the blend. They were tender, savory, and deeply satisfying. The sauce was chunky and well-balanced, just the right touch of sweetness without tipping into acidity. We also ordered the arancini, which came crisp on the outside and packed with umami flavor, helped along by the truffle sauce. One bite and you understand why these little rice bombs are such a classic. And then there was the cheese board, a nice variety that gave everyone something different to pick at between bites of everything else. For my main course, I went with the Pork Chop Giambotta. The pork chop was grilled beautifully, tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It was topped with a giambotta, a rustic Italian stew of vegetables that included fingerling potatoes, sausage, hot cherry peppers, vinegar, garlic, and onions. This dish hit every note on the palate, sweet, savory, tangy, and just enough heat to keep things interesting. One of those plates where every forkful gives you a slightly different combination of flavors. It was a great meal, made even better by sharing it with family. And the service deserves a mention as well. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly accommodating, the kind of hospitality that makes the whole evening feel effortless. A great night all around.
