First time there and we loved it. Wife had the mushroom ravioli and I had the seafood ravioli. We will definitely be there again for other menu items.

This was an awesome place! The food was delicious! The atmosphere was like old school Italian, with the wise guy feel! Mason our server was awesome and made sure we had everything we needed and was very attentive. The Italian sausage and peppers and it was the best I've ever had! The sauce was so good I couldn't stop eating. The owner even came out of the kitchen and sang a few songs! Was great. We will definitely be back! Thanks for the great time.

To be honest I would have given this place 3 stars but the bar tender on Friday night was rude, inattentive, and full of excuses. She did nothing but complain to other employees the whole time and exaggerated about her stock of booze. When my order came up, she threw it up on yhe bar with no condiments, bag, or napkins. I ordered the "oyster hero," egg plant parm sandwich. Very little marinara, and the bread was thick.Fiest time - last time.

Came for Valentines day dinner. Almost a full house, but was seated right away. Staff was friendly and the pizza was really good! More impressed with the gal who sat next to us who must have been daughter of owner - was there with her Valentine and still addressed customers there.

Ordered 2 pizzas takeout. Supposed to be ready in 30 minutes. Arrived to pick up 40-45 minutes later, no pizzas. Order never made it's way to the kitchen. Wait 20 minutes for new order. Incompetent. Hopefully the pizza is decent. Update: pizza is decent so I improved my food rating.

Wanted to leave a review my wife and I ordered pizza to go on Wednesday when it was a buy One get one. It was such a great deal. We got the margarita and a free cheese pizza. They were so busy that night the young lady behind the bar was so nice. The pizza guy came and delivered my pizza and introduced himself to me. Thank you Josh for making the perfect pizza the crust was just right. Our new favorite place in Cape Coral!!

I'm sure it was busy yesterday when I called, but was hung up on twice. Not a huge deal. But the pizza quality is way down. The pizza was so thin it was a joke and basically no sauce on either pie and one was chicken Alfredo. I will not be going back as they seem to be cheapening out on the quality. This place was good at one point. Sadly not any more.

Ordered a calzone to take out…more of a Stromboli than calzone but it was ok. Issue was they charged me $6 for an extra 2.5oz. cup of sauce! You heard right! The irony is that I also ordered a hero with light sauce…they should have charged me $6 less for the hero right? On principle alone I’ll never order from there again.

First time customer. Called in at 7 to place and order to be ready at 830. We ordered a Hawaiian, pepperoni and a cheese that was bogo for ordering a specialty pizza and some garlic knots. Found it odd you can’t pay more to add pepperoni to the free cheese but whatever so we ordered the pepperoni. Picked the food up right at 830, the guy at the bar was friendly and full of energy. The atmosphere was cool. The food however was awful, it was barely warm and overcooked. Wish it was good because the place is so close, maybe had it been ordered fresh and ate in, but come on. I’ve drove from fort Myers’s with a pizza from Tony’s and it was hotter than this was and they are 8 minutes away. Very very disappointed for New Year’s Eve. Hopefully others have better experiences.

We brought a group of six for dinner 4 of which were new customers with reservation at 4:00 pm only 3 tables were seated with customers so it was not too busy. Upon arrival (2 of us) we were seated once someone recognized we were standing there about 5/7 minutes the rest of our party arrived. We ordered drinks which were wrong ask for water half table received the other didn’t. We then reviewed menu and ordered meals and most of meals arrived after a long wait. The 2 personnel pizzas did not. Other customers were seated ate and left and we were still waiting. The waitress keep telling us a few more minutes after 1 hour and 30 minutes everyone was finished eating except the 2 pizza customers we finally got pizzas one was okay the other was completely wrong and was sent back. Finally tired of waiting I cancelled pizza. Just a very bad situation as waitress stated there was no manager to talk to which I can’t believe just wanted to talk to someone who could possibly give us a reason for what happened and why the service was this BAD. Just trying to have a nice dinner with friends and evening was ruined with no explanation. We live locally and try to support local businesses but after being treated this BAD we wont be returning.

First visit on Christmas Eve. I was very impressed with their old world Italian cuisine. Deep rich sauces, crisp clean calamari, meatballs, sausage & peppers, lasagna, eggplant parmesan, chicken Alfredo & tiramisu. Nice environment. Very friendly servers and staff. Think I found my go-to Italian restaurant in Cape
