Are reservations needed

Is pasta made fresh?

I have been there 2 different times for lunch without reservations and was seated right away. If you go with a large group, i would make them. In that way, they will be able to provide the staff and seating required.

Black friendly?

I would be more concerned with parking. Not always easy to find a close parking spot. You may want to drop someone off to get your table while the driver searches for a place to park.

No Reservations are not needed. They do get pretty crowded weekend afternoons and evenings though. Otherwise great authentic Italian food.
