Wait staff was pleasant. Food was hot. Fried mozzarella was crunchy and cheese was velvety. The margita pizza with added basil pesto sauce was delicious even down to the crust. I recommend anyone to give it a try. You can't go wrong with Italian; especially when it's authentic. Very good. 5 stars.

This was a first and last time kinda vist.. I ordered a simple dish of Fettuccine Alfredo and added mushrooms and spinach, something I do most always if available.. they got the order right, however, there was absolutely no taste! This was the worst Alfredo I have ever had.. looked much better than it tasted.. I was looking forward to it and so disappointed I couldn't even eat it.. was a wast of 20$! The workers were very new and not even a smile was given.. I took the food to go.. inside is very small and oddly shaped.. there was a baby that was screaming and looked to belong to an employee, noticed some annoyed faces as I stood waiting for the togo silverware as the screaming was echoing through the restaurant.. might want to add some Togo at hostess station or behind bar for easier access and some smiling faces but most of all a decent cook!

This was our first visit and it most certainly won’t be our last. They are definitely 5 star worthy but I will explain why they got 4 from our experience. Let’s start at the beginning with our appetizers. Calamari is always a must. I just love the little tentacles and they served a bunch of them. I was thrilled because most of the time, you only get a few but this was a generous portion with lots of little arms. The second appetizer was the grilled octopus. This is where they lost a few points because the $17 tentacle over white beans was pretty tiny. It was tender and nicely cooked so we didn’t complain. For the mains, I got the bone in veal Parmesan and hubs got braised beef ravioli with a meatball added. My goodness, the veal was super tasty. The red sauce was very balanced. The meatball, Mmmm Mmmm. His ravioli was very good but I liked mine better. Served with fresh, hot bread and a spring mix salad. We were very pleased and we look forward to our next visit. The service was friendly and the foods were presented at their appropriate times. Just an all around great experience.

Came here for the first time. My guest and I shared a bottle of the House Cabernet Sauvignon from Italy (Rimola; Veneto) along with a two appetizers and 2 entrees: The Casa Meatball and the Bruschetta Classica; The meatball came with two polenta sticks; crispy on the outside and deliciously smooth on the inside. The meatball which was topped with shaved parmesan had great flavor specially after taking a sip of the wine; the meatball was very light and smooth; you can slice thin pieces with a fork. The Bruschetta came with 5 Bruschette topped with mozzarella and garnished with a balsamic reduction. They had a lot of flavor and tasted fresh. Both entrees came with house salads that were plentiful. My guest ordered the Lasagna and said that it was the best Lasagna they've ever had. It was topped with a béchamel sauce and fresh herbs. I tried to take a byte but ended up taking several; it was exquisite. I had the Grilled Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and this is why this review received 3 stars. While the dish had good flavor, the pasta was clumped together. It broke when trying to separate it with a fork; it wasn't an enjoyable experience unfortunately. Although there were only 2 servers and a food runner, the service was okay; a little slow but we didn't mind specially with those huge appetizers and the house salads. I'm sure they are short on staff like everyone else during these difficult times. The place looks clean and cozy; very well suited if wanting to impress on a first date and not break the bank. I think the Fettuccini was just a misstep that night as everything exceeded expectations. I would definitely recommend this place and will revisit it.
