Our waitress was very nice, friendly and service was efficient throughout. Cocktails were nice to start and there was complimentary bread service, always a plus, but the taste and texture of the focaccia was not really to my lining. We ordered the fried calamari to start, and again nothing bad here, but just not as good as we had hoped. That said, entrees were strong. Generous portions that were fairly priced. The lasagna and eggplant parm were both quite tasty. We were too stuffed to try the desserts. I dine at many many Italian restaurants and realize my bar might be a little higher than most. We will return here to try more of the menu when we are looking for a casual dinner. I would recommend giving them a try if you are seeking the same.

The service was slow, and there was no sense of prioritization or urgency. I actually walked to the hostess section to catch our waiter greeting a friend and socializing while she held our check hostage. It took everything in me not to ask for it.

We waited a full 5 minutes before we were acknowledged and told to sit anywhere we wanted. We went to a table and waited again, while watching 2 servers walk through the dining room. One finally over came over and greeted us. The table we day down at had some left over straw wrappers still on it. When I mentioned it to the server, she laughed and said, "Oh! Kids were here." Really? That's what you say? We went ahead an ordered our food. They were out of the calamari (I was surprised) and they were out of meatballs -at an Italian restaurant? Ok. Things happen. We ordered the garlic bread and mozzarella cheese sticks/ ravioli appetizer. We split a full size Caesar salad and lasagna. It took 20 minutes for the garlic bread to come out to our table. She also brought out the regular bread which was supposed to come to our table as soon as we sat down. 10 minutes later, the cheese sticks & ravioli, Caesar salad and lasagna came out all at the same time. If I wasn't so hungry, I would have sent back the lasagna and told them to keep it warm. The food was great. The Caesar salad was outstanding. But the whole experience was off-putting. The food was rushed. We should never have had to wait for the bread. We shouldn't have had the salad and the entree come out at the same time. I was disappointed in the entire experience. I wonder if someone is going to read this update.

I stumbled upon this place while waiting for a 5pm massage appointment at a place on the 2nd floor. I was immediately welcomed with a smile by the guy working behind the counter. As soon as I told him it was my first time here we struck up a great conversation. He showed me what types of foods they had and after I settled on a lunch box that included a panini, salad and other goodies, he mentioned that they switch out their salads every Wednesday to mix up the variety. I settled on a Lasagne slice, a Prosciutto Panini and an additional one to go with my lunch box. Their side wall was adorned with pickled and jarred items as well as pastas the like. On the far wall had their beverages and my lunch box came with my choice of drink. I settled on some Italian orange soda. Not sure what it tastes like but I will tomorrow for my lunch. They also have panini press machines. The nice guy offered to toast my panini. I only have a microwave at work so using that will just turn my panini into a solid rock. Microwaves and bread don't do well with each other. Overall a neat experience indeed. I think on my next visit I'll bring my wife with me so that she can try other things. She has a better eye at finding great things to eat more than I do.

Unlike most places that make the dish look like a lot by packing it on a small plate, this one had a massive plate and piled it high. Even the kid's meal was the size of an adult portion! My pad Thai was supposed to be a level 4 spice, but it wasn't spicy at all, and it was a bit on the sweeter side -- not overwhelming, but sweeter than I expected. I also tried the house special fried rice, which was gigantic but sadly lacked flavor. I really didn't enjoy it. The chicken tenders were crispy but a little dry. However, the flourless chocolate cake was amazing! I'd never had it before, but it was so rich and delicious. Highly recommend that dessert! I'm giving 4 stars mainly because of the huge portion sizes. The food overall would probably be closer to 3 stars for me, but the portions definitely stood out. As for the ambiance, it wasn't the prettiest place, definitely an old-school vibe, but it was huge and clean, so no complaints there. Service was just your standard, nothing extraordinary.
