We came right at opening so everything was pretty clean although staff were still roaming around finishing up different tasks. Our waitress was friendly and helpful, gave us sufficient time to look over the menu and checked in enough to not be over-bearing. While we were there, several customers came in to either to order take-out or pick up their take-out. It was awhile before some of them were acknowledged and then there was no real place for them to wait. So everyone was shuffling around awkwardly to make room for incoming customers, while those waiting had to stand in the entrance, near the bar. The food is why we came. The menu photos looked amazing and their facebook page is always getting rave reviews and comments by other customers. We were kind of disappointed. The onion rings had a nice crunch- but it was a lot of batter and not a lot of onion OR flavor. Both of us agreed it need some sort of seasoning. The dipping sauce was okay and a very small portion. My husband was very excited to try the half chicken with their rub- but after two bites said, "This rub is literally like dirt." I tasted it and yes, it had a very grainy feel in your mouth and definitely had an earthy overtone. He said the fries were the star and the white chipotle sauce was good. I got the Southwest salad and added brisket for an additional $4. The brisket itself was pretty good- although for some reason I was expecting it to be in thinner strips, not small chunks. The salad mix itself was very basic. Very... "leafy"- and it absolutely needed more dressing. Overall, I felt underwhelmed and like it was something I could make at home. We aren't dying to go back anytime soon- but if we're ever in the mood, I think I'd like to try their brunch options or maybe a sandwich.

I wish that the lime and orange came through more, they both leaned very heavy on the bitter end which I wasn't expecting for both (one, sure, but not the other) I hope I find some brighter, citrus flavors on the next visit. We will always come back. It doesn't stay open super late so we gor kicked out lol but we always have a good time.

I don't live here, but I might need to move here just to be near this restaurant…read more Jokes aside, this place is it. If you haven't been here and like Italian food, stop searching, close the app now, and drive to this restaurant (maybe check for a reservation first). I came here with a larger group and every single person loved their food. Our server Brendan was fantastic and helpful, and gave us plenty of recommendations and customized them for what we were looking for. Though I'm sure there are other great choices, we generally followed his lead and we were very glad we did. Several of the group ordered the salmon and argued it might be the best salmon they've ever had. I got the rigatoni vodka and it was amazing. We also had the goat cheese appetizer and I'm still dreaming about that one. Also got branzino which was another hit. I'm convinced you can't go wrong here. Prices reflect a nice Italian place, but they are absolutely fair for the quality here. I regret not getting pictures before devouring everything, but hopefully you get the point. Drinks were on point too. Go eat here. Thank me later.
