New management has taken over, and I must say, the food was outstanding! The ingredients were fresh, and the atmosphere was inviting. I will definitely be returning!

Wow! The food is fantastic, and the atmosphere is delightful. The new owners are incredibly welcoming. The pizza is authentic and made with the freshest ingredients. We come here often and can't wait for the outdoor seating when the weather warms up!

The owners are so kind and pleasant! Very proud and enthusiastic which shows in their cooking and the atmosphere. Super delicious. Have had the pizza, pasta, calamari, rice balls, Italian cheesecake and tiramisu. Go almost once a week. It is worth it. Everything is amazing!

Run, don't walk to this wonderful restaurant. The service is outstanding and I highly recommend the Eggplant Parmesan. The skin the eggplant and they do not bread it! It is so light and delicious. The sauce is to die for. It's family run straight from Italy. They also have wonderful outside patio seating for those warm/cool nights.

Dined here with family and we all really enjoyed it. Hubby had the sausage pizza and I opted for Caesar salad which was equally delicious. We both had cappuccinos with our dessert and the little guy had an ice cream. Dining with a toddler can be challenging but the staff was really accommodating. Perfect spot for a nice dinner!
