Food is good but their delivery is terrible. They have messed up consecutive deliveries and their way of making it right is to fix their screw up over an hour later. Used to be the best place in town before ownership change, a shame.

First time here. Had slice of Sicilian. Not usually a Sicilian guy but it looked really good. It was fantastic! Light & crispy bottom and crust. Fluffy & light middle. Sauce was delicious! Definitely will be back & definitely recommend!

First time going there and we ordered a pizza. Wasn't sure what to expect but I was very happy since it was really good. One of the owners came over to introduce himself and was very nice. The atmosphere was new and really nice.

The epitome of what a mom and pop shop should be. Food was beyond delicious and service was great. Went with my wife who has Celiac disease and can't have gluten. The owner and his wife brainstormed food options with my wife to make sure she gets a full experience and she was more than happy. Definitely will be back.

Nice new owners. Scaled down menu which seems to be the key. Staff was friendly and is a BYOB location. Food was very good .

Everything was absolutely delicious and they give big portions. On the multiple occasions I have been here I was left with no complaints. My server was very attentive and friendly. You can definitely tell this is a family restaurant with a cozy vibe, it made me feel at home. Great place to bring your kids and enjoy a good meal. I would definitely like recommend trying the Pasta with vodka sauce, Sicilian slice and their Zeppoles are amazing.

Wonderful dinner with my family today. The restaurant was very accommodating and the food & service were excellent. Ordered Appetizers (Fried Calamari, Zuppa d' Mussels, Caprese Salad, Baked Clams, and Fried Zucchini all delicious!!). The pasta dishes my family ordered were mouth watering, I had the (Uncle Mike's) Salmon with spinach and rice which was perfectly seasoned.If you're anywhere in the area, give this gem a try. You will NOT be disappointed!

We wanted to give this new business a try, but unfortunately we didn’t it find the food to be good. We ordered Franco’s favorite and a pear salad with grilled chicken. The pear salad was supposed to come with goat cheese, but it barely had any. It was basically a bunch of arugula with grilled chicken on top. The lemon dressing it came with was bland. The salad needed more goat cheese and a better dressing. Franco’s favorite was ravioli Parmesan with shrimp fra Diavolo. The marinara sauce to the ravioli had no flavor and the fra Diavolo had no heat. The shrimp wasn’t even breaded which was very odd. Our waitress wasn’t the best either. We had to ask for water and more. coffee. She didn’t even know what some dishes on the menu were. Needless to say I don’t recommend, and I wouldn’t come back.

Amazing!! The staff is wonderful, thank you Maria and Linda for being so attentive. Kudos to the chef for his amazing food and the new owners came over to meet us and introduce themselves giving a total family vibe. The meals came with salads and the portions were huge, plenty of leftovers. We have been there a several times prior to this post and each time it has been perfect, the weekends are always crowded. We would highly recommend this restaurant, love the BYOB without a service charge and we have already placed our catering order in for the holidays. Thank you 😊

I wish I could give this restaurant more than 5 stars. We went last night for the first time with 2 of our friends from Church. Wow, was I surprised. This is seriously a hidden Gem. The food and portions were amazing and the owner and waitresses were extremely friendly and hard working. I cannot wait to go back!!!!
