Pleasantly surprised after trying this restaurant last night. The servers were very friendly and attentive, and the fettuccini alfredo was absolutely delicious. Everything was delivered to our table in a timely manner, and the restaurant was clean. I would recommend trying this place out!

I drove 35 miles for this restaurant that used to be great before Covid. Sadly, the food was mediocre. Cheap ingredients, overcooked pasta, saltless frozen calamari, watery salad, tasteless tomato sauce, ultra-cheap canola oil sold for olive oil (!). We waited for 30 min for an appetizer and the staff even complained for being short handed. On the positive side, the waitress was polite and felt almost sorry for our poor dining experience. She’s not responsible for the owners’s shortcomings, of course. But despite the terrible food, the most egregious thing happened at the end when the owner came out of the kitchen basically yelling at us for being the only unsatisfied customers, who (according to her) had done nothing but complaining. We paid the bill, tipped the waitress 20% and left. We will never be back.

We used to love this place. My husband was born and raised in Italy, we go there every year to see his family. We wanted to spend our 10th year anniversary in a place we loved. Used to be long time customers. Quality went down substantially. 45 min to get appetizers. Waiters kept apologizing. Rice balls were microwaved. Calamari was frozen. Judy came out and said it was hard to hire people who wanted to work. What? Then dont take tables you cant handle- we had a reservation. My kids felt asleep waiting for their food. Rice balls were microwaved. Pasta had no salt and was over cooked. Not the experience we were used to and loved for the past 5+ years. Picture of chicken parmesan in soupy overcooked pasta. Sorry Gigi and Judy we wont be back. Waiters were very kind and kept apologizing.

I've eaten here a handful of times and every time I'm just as impressed. The food is amazing, very rich. All the apps are great but the artichokes, meatballs and suppli are particularly amazing. Love all the pasta entrees, veal, chicken ossobuco, seafood, of it's really great, and don't forget the homemade ricotta cheesecake!

Why is this even a question?! Outstanding food and atmosphere. If Covid is what you are concerned with in reference to this fine establishment, you probably should just stay home.

only Tilapia as a fish for dinner? do you ever have soft shell crabs

I am sorry but I just saw you asked a question. We don't have Tilipia in the menu anymore. Our fish is fish of the day and varies from two choices of Branzino, Orata, Salmon, Flownder, Dover Sole, Pampano, Red Snapper, Lobster, Scallops, Polpo etc.. We have every day Mussels, Clams, Shrimp and Calamari. Thanks. Luigi
