Dog-friendly on the patio and open air bar (that is a humongous rectangle with a serpentine tail, go see and you will get it). Bartenders Pierre and Sam are awesome and attentive. Food is consistent and I am remiss at not posting the pepperoni pizza. I think the best in the 216. Could use more hot honey though bc if u say its on there, I should taste it in more than a few bites. The calamari was also tender and no babies, yay me! The vibe is just so lively yet chill, so like!

He was very attentive and very funny as well! we are STILL talking about that meatball! seriously, i can't say enough good things about it! the meatball itself was fork tender, and seasoned to perfection. that sauce complimented the meat wonderfully, while the ricotta and fresh herbs offered a creamy, herby finish! i dipped the bread into the sauce and it was incredible! i opted for the limoncello martini which comes with a shaker for refills. $9 and i got about 2 1/2 drinks out of it. my boyfriend got the dragonfruit margarita and a classic margarita (not pictured) both pretty strong and delicious for happy hour drinks. my boyfriend really enjoyed the calamari! it's very flavorful featuring crispy peppers and tiny bits of fresh garlic. i loved the lemon aioli that was served on the side. we wrapped it up with carrot cake that they split for us. served warm, with a sweet cream cheese icing and caramel drizzle that compliments the cinnamon, nutty flavor. such a delicious treat after the drinks and appetizers! we were going to order a pizza but we got too full LOL! an awesome date location that features happy hour 7 days a week. our bill came to roughly $110 after tip which is very affordable for the area in which this restaurant is located. highly recommend trying them out for a date, friend catch up, or even a special event!

My rack of lamb with an Italian flavored seasoning twist medium, rare, perfectly prepared with roast potatoes and side salad was expertly prepared. Add an appealing presentation and you have the perfect combination. My guest had eggplant Parmesan, and as they say it's all about flavor which the dish represented. The slightly salted fresh homemade Italian bread with a butter surface wash was a delicious diversion. You had to be careful of before the entries arrived. All this with an excellent dessert, glass of white wine, and friendly attentive service was the way to start the new year. We will be going back. Joe MERSNIK

Visiting from California, I decided to stop here because the pizza looked really good in the…read morepictures on Yelp. I walked in, saw the sign that said to order at the register, so I did exactly that... and then stood there for about five minutes looking like I was waiting for someone to tell me I was in the right place. Nobody said hello, nobody acknowledged me, nothing. I honestly started wondering if I had missed a step. And I'm not exaggerating when I say five minutes. I stood there waiting to be acknowledged before anyone came over. Maybe it's just me, but I feel like when someone walks into a business, a simple, "Hi! We'll be right with you," goes a long way. I work in hospitality, so that's just something I naturally notice and appreciate. The funny part? As other people came in, I noticed they were greeted, so I couldn't help but wonder... was it just me? Oh well. Now, credit where it's due ....the food was actually really good! I ordered a pepperoni, sausage, and banana pepper pizza with a small drink, and my total was about $21. The pizza was a great size, and I really enjoyed it. I honestly would have given you guys 5 stars because the food deserves it. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because of the lack of acknowledgment when I first walked in. A simple hello or "We'll be right with you" really does make a difference. Other than that, I'd definitely come back for the pizza. Hopefully next time I'll get the greeting too.

I got the chicken Milanese with the arugula salad it was absolutely incredible They also have happy hour till 6 PM on Saturday so that's also another bonus. We will definitely be making this place part of our weekly rotation.

Getting a reservation was easy and convenient. I don't know why but the menu has just never excited me. It is a reasonably varied menu with a decent selection, but it's just lacking any creativity. Our server, Maia, was a very pleasant young woman who did an excellent job all evening. She was very effective and efficient. The wine list did include a good selection of excellent Italian wines by the glass. I enjoyed a very nice Amarone. I started with the "Fried Olives" which were tasty but just looked like a plate of marbles. My brother ordered the "Eggplant Meatballs" which I must say were excellent. They were tender and flavorful served in a marvelous marinara sauce... I might go so far as to say they were the highlight of the meal. I ordered the "Lamb Rigatoni" as my entree. It was good, with plenty of tender shredded lamb, but I couldn't help but wish it was covered by the marinara that was on the meatballs. My wife had the "Grilled Bronzini" which she said was very good. But somehow I was reading on her face, "it was just fish". We finished with a good cup of coffee and a scoop of very good ice cream. I can't really point to any specific disappointment. I was just underwhelmed. I wasn't motivated enough to take any pictures... sorry. I think you should give them a try and voice your opinion.

The margherita pizza was balanced and clean, though a bit less strong in flavor compared to the other pizzas on the table. The funghi pizza was earthy and satisfying, though it benefited most when eaten fresh, before the flavors dulled slightly as it cooled. The spinach and artichoke pizza stood out with excellent balance, richness, and texture. Easily one of the better items of the night. The crispy Brussels sprouts were a highlight, well executed with strong flavor and proper crispness. The crispy potatoes were good but secondary.
