Tracy was outstanding, would have had her have a mojito with us if she wasn't so busy! Great food, limited on walk-ins so make a reservation! We'll be back!

Food was very good, but not the best Italian we've had in the area. The atmosphere was okay....a bit loud. The reason I would not come back is because of the service. We had a 7:30 res but we came early (around 7pm) to have a drink at the bar with the friends we were meeting. The hostess ignored us when we said we wanted to wait and she ushered us to a table....because it was open/available. That was okay, but the waiter...ugh. He was one of those "performers" who thinks it's all about 'him'. It's not dude, it's about us----your customers. Joking around, acting clownish, sitting (too close) next to us to take our orders. We were there with new friends and wanted to get to know them....not be a captive audience for the someone who should be serving us quietly and then getting out of the way. Had to ask for bread and then didn't get it until I asked again (a bus boy finally brought it). Also had to ask for a second round of drinks. No, not going back. There are much better options.

Disappointed! We took friends here for dinner after getting a recommendation. Food was great, service was outstanding. Unfortunately, we left this restaurant with a very negative impression. When we got our bills, a credit card surcharge was applied (before we even presented credit cards to pay the bill). My wife was also charged $2.00 for a small dish of onions which she had asked to be included with her salad. Each couple spent over $200, and we all left feeling frustrated about these unnecessary “nickel and dime” charges. We have no complaints with our server and busboy. Both were fabulous. But these small unannounced charges (less than $10 each) left us feeling taken advantage of, and are the reason we will never return and never recommend this restaurant to friends.

Wonderful Sunday night dinner. We shared a delicious Caprese Salad to start and had two outstanding pasta dishes for our main course: The Orecchiette and the Rigatoni Ala Vodka with Sausage and Eggplant, both were fantastic! Great service from our waiter and his assistant. He was from Chicago, I'm sorry I did not get his name. His sense of humor added to the great experience.

We attended our friends’ wedding reception at Pascones on Honore and University Parkway last night 2/17/24 in their private room for about 35 to 40 people. They offered three different dishes! The food, service, and atmosphere was 100% amazing! Every salad was great, every meal was hot, the serving sizes were huge, the food came out with perfect timing, the drinks were fast and correct. In the main dining room they served a full restaurant at the same time.Vegetarian options: They have an amazing Eggplant Parm!

By far the best Italian food we've ever had and were very pleased to experience this restaurant for our wedding anniversary. Both of us are very picky when it comes to dinning out and I can tell you that the food and service here was top notch. We will definitely return and I suggest trying for yourself and not paying attention to the one-star reviews.

This place has horrible food and horrible service and they automatically charge a service charge for their horrible service. Manager was called to the table and showed up an hour later and basically said don't come back if you don't like
