One of our favorite spots to get Italian food. Service is always great and food is usually really good as well. I didn't love the Beef Scaloppini Piccata. Tasted like they used a lesser cut of meat than usual. Otherwise 5 stars for the rest of our dinner.

The web list Pickup & Delivery from Noon to 10pm or ordering through Grubhub. The phone is never answered Tried 5 times in an hour period, with no luck. So, we drove to the restaurant to get some takeout. When we arrived, it was a little after 4pm on a Friday. There was one server waiting tables, one cook in the kitchen, NO host, and ONLY THREE tables in the entire restaurant and two of them were already eating.I stood at the counter for 8 minutes while the server passed back and forth, with no so much as a hello. When I said, excuse me, he let me stand there for another two minutes become coming over.When I asked for a menu to order take-out – his response was, we don’t do take-out. Dine in only. You should have called in an order. So, I explained that I had been trying to call for the last hour that no one is answering the phone. He looked at me and said, they were extremely busy. The entire time he was passing back and forth around the restaurant and speaking with me, the phone was ringing off the hook, with no to answer it. My mistake – as I should have taken a table, ordered the food, then asked for boxes.This restaurant is severely understaffed, which falls back on management, but that doesn’t excuse the off putting behavior of the staff. There is no “welcoming or family” feeling here that you get at other Italian restaurants. The two times that we have dined in–house – the staff is not trained to handle more than two tables at a time, causing a severe lack in service. And cooking times on their limited menu is hindered due to one cook. Food presentation lacks – just tossed on a plate and sauce is always limited. This will be our last time here – why settle for poor service and two to three star food when we can drive a little further to Olive Garden, Carrabba’s, or Mandola’s.

Small issue in the beginning but they promptly fixed the issue.

We arrived at 5 PM on a Friday and there was no waiting. We were immediately greeted and seated. The Sangrias are marvelous! Fresh bread with dipping sauce was amazing! We had the Signature Dish with Chicken, spinach, sum-dried tomatoes, mushroom and Fettucini sauce. Very tasty. Don't pass up the dessert...especially the cheesecake!
Just celebrated my birthday here and received 1st class treatment and service. Our servers Edsol and Zach made us feel very special; and the owner came by to wish me a happy birthday. This is my favorite local restaurant because it is a very romantic place and very personable. The food is excellent!
I use DoorDash to order the spaghetti and meatballs. I got very little sauce I attempted to contact the restaurant with no answer very disappointed with the flavor of the meatballs as well.

We were at the restaurant today! and everything was very good, I ordered a red sangria and it was good, they brought us some bread for the house and we ordered some bruschetta to start, and the child's food (by the way, the large portion and he loved it) we ordered a risotto and a lasagna everything The waiter, who I think is called Edson, was very delicious. He served us very well and was helpful! 100% recommended

Only knock against is the main entree came to the table before we finished our appetizers. Can't give any further details about entree because it was a specific menu for Valentine's Day. Very good none the less.
