Great service. I didn't have to ask for a refill, which is the biggest thing for me. Food was pretty good. They also have gluten free pasta. Their bread is fresh and delicious. Prices aren't bad. The desserts were awesome. Update: Same great service every visit, so far.

Excellent restaurant! One of our favorites. Food is alway fresh & delicious. Waiter was great. Had a wonderful Birthday dinner! Thank you!!
First time here. Definitely last time as well. Meatballs were very good but chicken parm was straight out of an On-cor frozen dinner. Sauce was at best weak. Just because you put meat in the sauce doesn't mean it's meat sauce. There is no depth to the sauce and the pasta was not drained enough making the sauce even less flavorful. Had the house vinegarette on the salad it was boring as well. Shredded lettuce isn't my idea of a sale at an Italian restaurant. I'm sure plenty of folks think this is a good place but it's not for me.
This is an Italian restaurant, fairly upscale. The decor is nice and the staff is friendly and capable. Having said that...lets talk about the food. Some items are wonderful but when the meatballs are not good, there is a definite problem. Three people in our party ordered them and all said they were like mush and tasteless. I ordered another simple dish, baked spaghetti. The portion was small for the price and the sauce was basically nonexistent. I ate about a third and took the rest to go. By the next day, it was so dried out i had to toss it. Everything is a la carte so add a soup or salad to your bill. My salad was overdressed and so I left most on the plate. They do bring hot rolls to the table but this does not make up for rest. This was a birthday occasion for one of the members of our party so everyone was reluctant to complain. They did bring a birthday cannoli to the table so that was nice. Summing up, we won't be back.
I travel weekly with work , and I've never left a negative review. However, I had dinner the other night, and it was so disappointing that I couldn't leave without warning others. I'm quite certain that nothing is prepared on site or from scratch. Consider the following... The "outstanding" fried mushrooms were served in about 1 minute and not hot; I asked about a cannelloni and was told that they no longer had a good supplier; I asked if they had bolognese sauce and was told, no, because that takes hours to prepare; the red sauce was not as good as the canned Hunt's that we used to buy. The bread was good, but they asked me if I wanted garlic on it and I said yes. "Garlic" amounted to an absurd amount of fresh garlic chopped and mixed with olive oil, and poured on top of a gourmet dinner roll. I like garlic a lot, but this was over the top, as well as messy to eat. I ordered the dinner special which was ravioli was chunks of chicken on top. The chicken was freezer burned, and was rubbery from being thawed in the microwave. The service was good, with a small exception that their hours are posted as 10 p.m., but they were hovering for me to leave at 9:15 "because of the time of year." TLDR : the menu story that Angelo came from Italy a number of years ago and gained restaurant experience so that you can have an authentic Italian dinner seems like a gross misrepresentation.
Best Italian food.. Great service.....don't forget the garlic knots.. Delicious
The service was very good. I sat at the bar tonight and had a white pizza for dinner. The bartenders are very friendly here and have a awesome list of drinks they can whip up for you. I would highly recommend coming here.
Best Italian family owned restaurant in the area!
