-Grilled steak sandwich, very bland and dry. Steak wasn’t seasoned and the main flavor I got from this sandwich was the tomato. Barely got a hint of the garlic aoli. Disappointing because it sounded so good on the menu.-The Italian sandwich, it was ok. More flavorful than the other sandwich but still pretty dry and bland.-The broccoli cheddar soup was ok, the house dressing for my salad was really good.-Pizza was ok, nothing remarkable but it was the best dish out of our order.

This was my cousin and my first time here and everything from entering the building to the ease of ordering was spectacular! We did have some recommendation’s from Chef Kristi on some wine pairings and they did not disappoint! We tried the GRECHETTO, which is a white wine and for my girlies and guys who love Sauvignon blanc or Pinot Grigio, you will love this!! We also tried the PINOT NERO and this was a hit!! I’m a red wine drinker and this was so smooth and full of flavor! We had the fried homemade mozzarella and the Parmesan risotto fries to start (thanks Chef) and they were perfect!! I ordered the Pappardelle with Sausage Ragu and instead of the salad I had the Pancetta and onion soup! The consistency, the flavor, the temperature of the soup, all perfect! The pasta was so fresh, the sausage had an amazing taste and the sauce was perfect! My cousin ordered the chicken Alfredo Alfredo and the chicken was seasoned perfectly!! The sauce to pasta ratio was spot on!! For dessert we had the limoncello marscapone cake and yall… the freshest, most moist slice of cake I’ve ever had! The flavor of the lemon was not too overpowering and it did not stand a chance on that table! 10/10 recommend!!

Thoroughly enjoyed my mushroom risotto and leftovers! I did not taste the truffle it was supposed to have but it was tasty. I believe our server was Tobias. He was awesome! Would return (this was my first time.)

Even though we weren’t able to eat here because we were a large group and they were crowded, the owner went ABOVE AND BEYOND to try to work something out with us. Even suggesting their sister restaurant and that she would personally call in the order for us. I seriously cannot wait to try this place in the future. If you are visiting or are in Richmond, you should support this amazing owner! Also I should mention it smelled fantastic inside. I’m sure the food is top notch!

Absolutely wonderful and authentic Italian restaurant. We celebrated my mother in law's 70th birthday yesterday and everything was perfection. Delicious food, lovely ambiance, excellent service. We are from out of town, but we will return for sure next time we are in town.

Our food was excellent. Chicken parm was really good. Service was great. Definitely will stop there for dinner again!
The restaurant is not very accommodating if you do not like your food. Many of us did not like our shrimp scampi it was terrible. They seem to get offended if you do not like their food everything else tasted good. It was extremely lemony and the pasta was very soggy with no flavor. We were also rushed to finish our food and leave the restaurant by one of the staff. We spent a lot of money there and you should be able to change your entree if you do not like the food. I will tell all of my friends business associates and everyone I know not to go to your restaurant based on the service. That is a very bad customer service experience . Angela ‘s Italian restaurant on north ridge rd has much better service ! I did not eat my meal at all and I was unable to change it for something else. What a terrible experience. Shame on this establishment for treating customers so poorly ! I’ve never been treated so terribly at a restaurant for wanting to change the entree in my life especially if you told them in a nice way that you did not like your food.
Was looking forward to a nice dinner with my husband but was not impressed. We were not informed that the pasta was served al dente and were not pleased with our dish. Not only that, but the lobster ravioli had no flavor other than "fish smell" and the consistency of the short rib raviolis were similar to a can of chef boyardee.. when I discussed my dissatisfaction with my server, she had a pre-scripted response about the pasta being served al dente and asking for it to be overcooked next time and no sign of sympathy for a dish of wasted money. We will not be coming here to waste our money again.

Patricia, our server, was excellent! Friendly and right on top of things! Our meals were very good! Two of us had the mushroom risotto, one with grilled chicken and one with grilled shrimp. Both excellent! Pastas were great, also! We will definitely go back!!

We split the eggplant Parmesan sub and the classic Italian sub, with each of us getting a side, Caesar salad. The side salad was more than ample, and we both enjoyed our sandwiches. The classic Italian was as good if not better than anything I ever had in little Italy, Manhattan, and the eggplant Parmesan was scalding, hot and very flavorful. the bread was exceptional and not your classic and expensive submarine roll. It was a very nice European role. We gladly would've done dessert except that we were both full leaving only a few croutons on the plate. I've been here many times and I will go back many times. Molto delizioso!!!!!!
