Big fan of this place they have just as good Italian as the do pizza. The Mark Pizza was pretty good but I would go back again for their whipped ricotta. Can say I noticed anything bad about the service which is good. Only thing about the space is that it's pretty small good for small groups.

My daughter had a pizza and I had lasagna. Both were outstanding.

Visited here for an early dinner one day, had a nice seat outside next to a space heater. The burrata appetizer was great, as were the two pizzas (one red one white)!

So close to my hotel (courtyard), restaurant is in an apartment building kind of area. So plenty of parking but I walked so came in through the doors close to the road (which was actually the back door). Check in and was seated promptly with my party. Staff is efficient and really nice. They have a regular menu and a special menu of the day. I went for a glass of Malbec, not bad. Started we shared the Brussels sprouts, it was delicious. We also shared the Maytag bleu asian pear salad, wow this was amazing! So refreshing and just loved it! And also the funghi pizza, also really good, thin crust, not oily and love the arugula and egg on top! Overall fantastic experience. Food was delicious.

Burrata:Great. Mild. Textured. Good breads. Pepper was interesting (that’s a good thing). ??Pear Salad:Great. Contrast. Balanced. Complementary ingredients.Marsala:Great. Savory. Rich, but not heavy. Chicken cooked perfectly. Pasta had great texture - cooked just right, not clumped together, not wet. Good cheese.Lasagne:Great. Balanced. Pasta spot on. Veg spot on. Cheeses spot on. Whole thing held its integrity. Pesto complimented mornay, didn’t overpower it. I actually liked this almost as much as Marsala.Butter cake:So decadent. Loved the coulis to cut through the heaviness. Good ice cream.Cheesecake:The real deal. Cheesecake is either good, or I want nothing to do with it. This is legit.

Place is great one of my favorite spots in town. Consistently good food every time. The staff are attentive and helpful food is fast and fresh and delicious and there is something for everyone. I go there when I want good food because they are so consistently good. I think I have eaten everything on the menu. Some of my favorites are the Melrose Grand salad the white lasagna and of course the pizza. If you have room at the end try the afogado. The dining are is lovely but a little dark as it should be. The plus 50 set may want readers.

Maggie's has incredible pizzas and we love their farm salad too. But tonight we discovered their fabulous desserts - they were out of this world good! The cheesecake was perfect - soft, creamy, cake texture with a delicious raspberry sauce. And the warm lava cake with vanilla gelato and salted caramel sauce - omg! The best dessert I have had this year! I will dream about it until I can have it again! Our waitress said it is a limited time only dessert - PLEASE make it a regular item on your incredible dessert menu!

Good food but pricey and portions are smaller relative to what they charge.
