Even though the dishes don't look super upscale they definitely taste like it. The flavors were there and really delicious. It's got a homey vibe inside. I think it could be fun for a private/low-key date night instead of going to a super crowded loud/overhyped place. Service was friendly. Just go.

My partner and I've been coming here over the past year and a half or so with friends. We have…read morealways enjoyed the food and the ambience. We just had dinner here tonight, introducing two family members to the restaurant.... and we had a VERY DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE. FOOD: I've appreciated their eggplant parmigiana in the past, a favorite of mine. Not tonight. It wasn't crispy and was served with very little sauce. It is served with a cacio de pepe linguine that was quite DRY. One family member had the lasagna. Presentation was nice but she found the dish lacking. She said it was OK but that she has had better... She's Italian and grew up with homemade lasagna. My partner and our second dinner guest had the spaghetti with meatballs dish. My partner has been a fan of this plate. He found the pasta a bit dry, short of sauce (again). Our dinner guest commented on how DELICIOUS the meatballs were, with which my partner agreed. For dessert we had the crème brûlée and the canelones. The crème brûlée tasted more like a pudding and a custard, and the flavor was very different from what were used to in the crème brûlée... Deficient. As for the cannelloni, the filling was tasty. The crusty wrap was very thick and dry. All in all quite a disappointing meal experience. AMBIENCE: A small comfortable neighborhood restaurant with charm. SERVICE: A big robust personality had our waitress. A bit on the loud side, a bit much on the robustness which felt a bit over bearing at the tableside. She herself was not unpleasant, but her presentation was a bit of nails on the chalkboard. To say the least, it was a disappointing experience tonight and as much as we have enjoyed this place in the past I'm not sure that we would return again. Especially disappointing because we live less than 2 miles away and it really has felt like our neighborhood place.

I ordered the Caesar salad with no cheese and balsamic dressed instead. The blackened pollock was cooked perfectly and generous portion of veggies and sauce. Admittedly, I am giving it 4 stars because service slowed down as the night went on, my entree too much longer than anticipated to come out and I had to find my server to get the check.

We had cocktails to start then an appetizer of fresh melon and prosciutto. I ordered the Chicken Marsala over fresh spinach which was wonderful. I'm avoiding carbs. My partner had a homemade pasta dish with Italian sausage in it. Both were excellent choices. It was my birthday so our waiter Gordon recommended his fave which was a lemony desert. It was awesome. Forgot to take a pic of it. Sorry. The atmosphere was perfect and so was the food and service. We'll definitely be back!!! ;)

We liked it so much that we decided to bring friends with us the next night!! Ambiance: the restaurant decor was warm and friendly, and quieter (we all could hear each other talking without yelling). Service: EXCEPTIONAL!! We weren't rushed, dishes were served after we clearly finished our salads (and not before!). Servers were always attentive, but not overly so (no interruptions while we socialized with our guests). And the service was constantly great - both nights, with completely different servers and bussers. Food: Excellent! Many of the dishes were similar to the other two locations, but in subtle ways Better! For example, they serve a Caesar salad- but it's a whole Romaine stalk sliced in half down the middle, lightly grilled, then drizzled with the dressing with flaked Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. Great presentation and even better taste than any Caesar I've ever had! There are two locations that are closer to us but we're coming to this one from now on!

My Husband liked his baked penne al forno but said it could be a little less noodle in portion. I had the chicken parmesan the chicken was great but it was served in a bowl like dish, so it was difficult to cut up. It was on a bed of penne pasta had no sauce under the chicken. Only the top of the plate had sauce and cheese. I asked for some extra sauce and they came out with a little one ounce serving cup. When I asked for another small cup, they said they would need to charge me two dollars for more. The pasta under my chicken was so dry I decided to take the rest home and add my own sauce. This was a huge disappointment for me and I didn't want to offend them by saying the pasta had no sauce underneath and was very dry. I guess we won't be coming back and will try other places in town that are more affordable and nickel and dime people for bread and sauce.
