Oh my goodness. So good . Happy hour is such a treat. We had 3 appetizers 2 entrees . 2 drinks a piece, and each had dessert. Only $75.00. You have got to go give it a try. Sit at the bar and enjoy the food and

I had an event with a contract of minimum 30 people. Final count was 39 but there were 3 no shows. I was charged for 39 yet we hit the 30 minimum at 36. Mandatory service fee of 22% is very high and did not include gratuity. I had $2200 and I was still short by almost $300. Very very expensive for lunch. I would not visit again.

Food was over salted and served cold. There are far better Italian restaurants in the area. The atmosphere is loud and difficult to have a conversation. Service was mediocre at best. I would not recommend!

Had dinner here last night for the first time. It was busy and festive with a bustling energy. The addition of a very good piano player was also very nice!There were 9 of us and our server Martin was great and attentive and helpful with ordering! We all liked our meals very much! The roasted artichokes app and the Brussels were phenomenal! I had the salmon piccata which was cooked perfectly. I also tasted the shrimp and beans- so good!!!Highly recommend this place. It’s a little loud for an intimate conversation meal. But if that’s not an issue for you this place is perfect. Will definitely go back!!Dietary restrictions: One person in our party is gluten free. They had many dishes that were able to accommodate her.

From start to finish, the service, selection and food were excellent! I had been craving chicken parmigiana and their execution was fantastic. The chicken was perfectly tender and the pasta was not just an afterthought, but a delightful compliment to the dish.

So we have 3 kids so decided to do takeout for valentines. My wife wanted to try something new and decided on Fava. We call to make the order and start with my wife's eggplant parm. Where they inform her that since it's valentines day, the dish is $9 more. ALSO, if she wants any pasta with that dish, it's an additional $12...so for eggplant and noodles they wanted almost $45. My wife had her heart set on eggplant parm so she got it but on principle alone she opted against the $12 noodle add on and the kids and I had Mazellas instead. The $32 piece of fried eggplant was so so, my wife says local pizza place was better and comes with pasta, I tried a bite and agree. Waitstaff were very polite, the little bit we had dealings with them for a takeout order. Lesson learned I guess, would not recommend.

Regulars having Valentine's dinner. Looking forward to a special night with my wife. Siting at the bar enjoying the night until the entries were served 15 minutes apart. Needless to say we had to share each dinner. Owner apologized and asked what he could do for us. I’m not one to ask for a comp. I certainly think one of the dinners should have been taking off the bill. $200 dinner with drinks that we didn’t eat together. Management should have address this differently in my opinion especially on a night like valentines.

Too loud - it was nice to have a piano,player, but he played loud and everyone was yelling to be heard, so the restaurant was loud. People gather for dinner to have conversations not listen to loud music. We leave many restaurants hoarse from raising our voice to be heard by our companions.

We had a 6:30 reservation and were taken as scheduled. The restaurant was moderately crowded. It was a Friday night. I had the chicken Marsala and it was delicious. The bone in veal parm was amazing as was the chicken parm. We were too full to get dessert but they looked great. Kyle was our server, and he was friendly and efficient. Management was attentive as they came over twice to check how we were doing. We did not sit at the bar, but it is a nice size. The prices are a little high.. but it was all delicious.

We dined here on Valentines Day. Purposely made an early reservation to avoid possible crowd. We were seated immediately and order taken. Food was very good (a little disappointed it was a special limited menu). The service was very good, but a little too good. By this I mean I felt rushed. Our cocktail, bread basket and appetizer arrived all together and immediately followed quickly by our entree. I slowed down my eating, but I felt waiter hovering. When waiter came for dessert order I asked if we could wait until we finish our bottle of wine. Two minutes later the manager came by and asked if he could take our dessert order. We placed order but again asked if we could finish our wine first. Dessert came a few minutes later and since mine had ice cream I had to stop drinking wine and eat dessert. It was a great meal, but a $200 meal (for 2) in an hour and 10 minutes is not my idea of celebrating Valentines Day. I would go again...but mid week when there is no holiday.

Great dinner at Fava. The piano player on Monday evenings, Joe, is fantastic!! It made for a great early Valentine's dinner. Good food and drinks for acceptable prices and good service as well.
