What an unexpected gem! We've only heard great things about this place so finally decided to try it out and it did not disappoint. While the ambiance is super casual and unassuming, the service, food, and drinks all have an upscale feel. We all loved every bite. We tasted each other's dishes and they were all delicious. My husband got the veal with Ragu sauce--it was rich and savory. I got the black pasta special with a white wine sauce that was tangy and fresh. The kids had pesto penne and fettuccine Alfredo and they both loved it. My sister-in-law had a penne pasta with mushrooms and sausage and it was to die for. We can't wait to return and try more dishes.

We had a very nice time. No one rushed us with dinner. My girlfriend and I were both celebrating our birthdays with our husbands. They brought us one birthday dessert to share and put the second candle in the dessert my husband had ordered?!?!? Unfortunately, the birthday dessert was tiramisu and I hate coffee. It might be nice to offer two birthday dessert options, so the birthday person can choose one they actually might enjoy.

This place is really under the radar. Not many seats but outdoors is nice. The value of the food is wonderful and the presentation is as good as anyplace. Oso boco was devine and the special pork chop was almost to pretty to eat but eat it we did. Wonderful.

I had made a reservation for 4 @ 6:45 pm. When we got there the hostess told us she had sat a party of 8 with no reservation. There were several of us standing there with reservations who had to wait upwards of 30 minutes. What is the point of making a reservation if you sit people with no reservation ahead of us??!!
We had such a great time here last night, Saturday at 5 pm and a party of four! I made the reservation using the OpenTable app, so easy!Cool restaurant, nice vibe. It is a small location, but it works really well for them. Inside and outside seating available. Table seating and bar also available.Parking can be a bit crowded because of the shopping center, but there is plenty of parking available in that area.At 5 pm, it was just us four, and 2 other tables taken. By the time we left, around 7 pm, the restaurant was pretty busy with all table taken and people trickling in and out.Our waiter, Ignacio AKA Nacho, was very welcoming, very polite, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the whole time. He was on point!The food was delicious! Prices are average, in par with other restaurants of the same type. We really enjoyed the food, it was filling, tasted fresh, high quality, and of good quantity.We left happy. Awesome time! Until the next time!

Wonderful meal. All five of us loved our entrees which varied from pasta to fish to beef. Best calamari I've had in years. Service was excellent. Tucked away in a corner of a shopping mall, it's a neighborhood gem. We will be back to try more of the menu.
It was an excellent experience overall! Great customer service and great atmosphere. Our waiter Ignacio (Nacho) was very welcoming and helpful. The food was very delicious, on point!

Everything was delicious! I had the lobster ravioli with shrimp- so good! Also, waiters were very attentive and never let our glasses get more than half empty. The warm banana bread with chocolate gelato had beautiful presentation and was very tasty! I will be back soon to try other menu items!
