We were in for Father's Day with family and witnessed behavior that was very disappointing. Between…read moreapproximately 4:30 and 5:30 p.m., a group of young adults repeatedly went in and out of the restaurant and appeared to be taking shots from a drink dispenser/cooler outsid a truck facing Main Street. What was especially concerning was that two female employees, identifiable by their Peecocco's tank tops, joined the group outside and appeared to participate while on duty and in full view of customers and families. We also observed bartenders interacting with the group and going back and forth between the restaurant and the gathering outside. As a customer, it raised concerns about professionalism and management oversight. Where was management during all of this? The food itself was fine--nothing extraordinary, but my kids enjoy the pizza. Unfortunately, after witnessing this behavior from staff, I no longer feel comfortable patronizing this location. It was disappointing and not the type of environment I expect when dining with my family.

Run down hotels, homeless encampment, etc. But it's a perfectly safe neighborhood. And it's absolutely delicious. The funny thing is when you mention it to people, their eyes pop open and they say, "I love that place!" And then when you ask how long it's been since they've been there they get a funny look and it's always a "couple of years or so." Well, stop waiting, and go today. I had the chicken Parmesan pizza today. Which tells me the chicken Parmesan is also excellent. Nice staff. Nice people. And you're not helping feed the corporate chain restaurants.

Our server, Enrique, was excellent-- attentive as he could be, and very personable--especially with the crowd. Apps included were calamari ( excellent!! ) and Greek nachos, which I didn't really like because I didn't like the " nachos", but they were covered with feta, olives and tomatoes-- great concept . My Greek side salad was good, loved the dressing. My spinach pie entree was actually 2 plates of 2 pieces...by the time I got to them I was full and only took one small bite, but it was a little greasy. Hubby got a make your own pizza and the one piece I had was yummy. There was a singer who was excellent, but it was pretty loud and difficult to hear many of the conversations Appreciated also that the tv's had on the Olympics! There was a decent sized outdoor patio as well.

The pizza is not good. I went in and sat at the bar close to 7 o'clock. The bar was only about half…read morefull and it's a small bar. The first half of the bar top had a small group of people that the staff knew. It took a long time to get service even though there were two people that were back-and-forth behind the bar. My pizza came out stone cold as no one seemed to be paying attention to what was going on and it did not have extra sauce as I had asked for. No one ever asked me if my food was ok. By this time there were 3 people behind the bar still not paying attention to anybody but this other group or just doing things and not even looking at anybody else. My wine was empty for a while. nobody noticed or asked if I wanted another. I would've had another glass but the third guy behind the bar who may have been the manager or owner was doing fireball shots with the group and they were getting very loud. I was just over it at that point. When I watched the bathroom after ordering, I looked at people's pizza as I walked by and they all looked cold and dead just like mine. And interestingly enough a guy sat down next to me just to have one drink right before my pizza arrived. When they brought it he said that their pizzas had actually gotten a little better than they used to be.

We had a great dining experience overall and would definitely come back…read more We started with the meatballs and crab cakes, both of which were delicious appetizers. For my entrée, I ordered the Salmon Ele, which came with a generous, meaty piece of salmon, shrimp, and sautéed spinach. Everything tasted fresh, and the portions were excellent. The rest of our table ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, chicken and shrimp Alfredo, and chicken Parmesan. Everyone enjoyed their meals, and the serving sizes were more than generous. In fact, most of us left with leftovers because there was so much food. The service was another highlight. Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and checked on us regularly without being overbearing, making for a very pleasant dining experience. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is that while the ingredients were clearly fresh and the dishes were flavorful, the seasoning felt like it was missing that final touch that would have made every bite truly memorable. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it was, but just a little more depth of flavor would have taken the food from very good to outstanding. Overall, if you're looking for generous portions, fresh ingredients, and attentive service, this restaurant is well worth a visit.

Once seated, the waiter was very attentive throughout the entire meal. To start our meal, we ordered a a plate of the calamari, which were ok, maybe a bit more rubbery than I like. Side salads were brought out after, which were ok, nothing great, very basic. They also brought some tasty, warm garlic rolls/knotts with the salads. For my entree, I had a tough time deciding, there were a lot of good options on the menu, but I was really interested by the Cacio E Pepe, but it is only available as a meal for (2) which seemed a bit excessive. My brother and I decided to get it together, along with a side of sausage to add some protein to the meal. I've seen videos of pasta made with in a cheese wheel online several times, and have wanted to try it, but this has been my first opportunity. They bring out the cooked pasta, and prepare it in the cheese wheel at the table, which was an added bit of fun for the dining experience. overall it was a fun and tasty meal. Got to try something I've been wanting to for a while. One warning, the restaurant is basically just one large room, so it can get a bit loud, depending on the crowd and how busy it is. But I'd go back, and would recommend this spot to other as well.

It's pretty far from where we live and we had to pass a lot of red lights to get there, almost an hour drive. Aside from that, we considered the prices pretty high but you get what you pay for.
