We visited for Valentine's Day, and as always, we made sure to try something new, and everything was incredible. The owner, Roberto, has truly mastered every aspect of the restaurant, from the decor and service to the wine selection, and of course, the food is consistently excellent! We go there every other week, so come on down for an unforgettable culinary experience! - Ricky.

However, I've noticed a few things that suggest a lack of appreciation for customers. During our last visit, we ordered a salad as an appetizer and asked the waiter if the kitchen could chop it for us. He agreed. My husband ordered a pasta dish and requested capellini instead of linguini, to which the waiter also agreed. When the bill arrived, we were surprised to see a $2 charge for chopping the salad and another $2 for the capellini substitution. Additionally, there's now a surcharge for using a credit card. Given that this is not an inexpensive restaurant and our bills always exceed $100, being nickel-and-dimed like this really leaves a sour impression. We might reconsider our decision to return.

Well this time something was off so the waiter asked if everything was okay? I never send food back or complain but this needed to be addressed since it has never occurred before. The owner came over and said to my wife if you don't like it, just wrap it up give it to your husband. I'm sure he'll eat it.! I was thinking about making this A-Hole wear that plate of food but I held my composure and let it go the owner then the A-Hole went on to saying they had sold over 30 of those meals tonight and no complaints and told us he will send out sauce from the Kitchen to taste . I told him OK taste it with me and let me see your reaction he put it on the table and simply walked away, I did taste it and it was gross. The owner did not come back to ask what I thought of it We asked for the check and the way they brought the check back to the table. He was also upset that the owner was still charging, us for this disgusting meal asked if I would like to speak to the owner about the charge, I simply told the waiter no, that's not necessary. We paid the bill tipped the waiter as we always do The waiter the apologized for the owners actions and said I hope it's better next time I said to the waiter on the way out sorry this is the last time that I will be coming to meta Good luck new owner! You are not going to make it with your disgusting attitude and food that you let out of your kitchen without listening to the customers that are coming to your restaurant!

The service was outstanding, with attentive and friendly staff, which definitely deserves a 5. The atmosphere was also pleasant, providing a nice setting for a meal, so I’d rate it a 4 as well. In terms of cost, we spent between $50 and $100 per person. I would recommend this place for a lovely dining experience!

We started with a selection of appetizers at our table with friends. The eggplant meatballs were tasty, and we also tried the baby clams, although the sauce was much thicker than what we've experienced with other clam dishes that typically feature white wine, butter, and olive oil. The “DONUTS” shrimp balls were quite good as well. The veal chop was decent, served with a thick brown sauce that might have had a cheese base, and the mashed potatoes tasted like they came from a box. The rockfish was good. The service, however, was excellent. For dessert, we had pistachio tartufo and warm dark chocolate brownies paired with vanilla chocolate gelato. As for parking, the lot tends to fill up on Saturdays and Sundays, but street parking nearby is usually okay.

And boy do they have good sauces, from the mussels to the rigatoni. My mouth left satisfied after entering to a beautiful local-to-me establishment; a welcome departure from the Sole of the past. Wallpaper brings us back to a rustic time, and the fresh ingredients are brought to life from the chef. The paper place setting while i understand how easy it makes turnover, kinda gives the place a in-and-out place instead of one where I want to sit down and spend some time. I did go alone and got the normal amount of stares but aside from that I had a great time. Wait staff checked on me often, drinks were tasty effective, but I feel like they may be pricing themselves a little high but can get away with it because the food does taste very good, and looks very inviting for a family. Parking: Free street parking, plentiful, large free municipal lot down the block

The little puffs were flavorful and crispy, and the rice balls were rich and creamy. While there could have been a bit more of the calamari on the plate, it was still delicate and tasty. I loved the sauce. Pop Pop's Pasta was fantastic! It had the perfect blend of flavors, and the garlic oil was expertly done. I'm unsure of the base for the meatballs, but the rosemary and pine nuts were almost undetectable!

The little fritters were flavorful and crispy. The rice balls were delightful and creamy. While there could have been a bit more seasoning on the plate, everything was still delicate and delicious. I really enjoyed the sauce. Pop Pop's Pasta was fantastic! It had just the right balance of flavors, and the garlic oil was perfectly done. I'm not sure what the meatballs were based on, but the rosemary and pine nuts were almost undetectable!

The service is always welcoming and impeccable. The food is always scrumptious from salads and soups thruentrees and deserts. Never a bad meal and you can't plan on losing any weight dining here! Perfect for a celebration and thereis also a private party room. Reasonably priced, delicious food, a generous Black Friday sale on Gift certificates every yearthe day after Thanksgiving...my only suggestion? They should dim the lights down just a tiny tweak to create a more intimateambiance. One of our favs and you can't go wrong!
