We ordered several appetizers and started with a Caesar salad that looked like it all came out of a bag and a bottle. Not even the croutons were homemade. We ordered the linguine special and the veal scallopini and both were “ok,” but not outstanding. Compared to other options in the area, there was not much that would bring us back

We nearly ended up at a table right by the entry door next to the pianist, which would have been quite uncomfortable—cold and loud. Fortunately, we managed to get a table in the back of the restaurant. The food was excellent, and the servers were very friendly.

We ordered 2 fish entrees, 1 ribs and 1 chicken parm and they were all delicious. We've been to this restaurant in the past and the meals never disappoint. Service was great. We were not rushed and enjoyed a lovely evening.
