Chicken parmiggiana tasted like rubbery re-heated piece of breaded chicken with cheese melted on it in a greasy tomato sauce with no flavor at all. Very dry and tough. My wife's pasta was also horrible with little sauce and even less taste. Both items ordered from their daily special items. A quaint place in a potentially good location, but not recommended and staff needs to learn English and manners. Dinner was shockingly overpriced. Very embarrassing and disgustingly over-rated.

The food is great excellent specials and the staff very friendly and professional. The ingredients used are of very high quality and everything is very fresh. We love the fresh tomato, garlic and olive oil they provide with their fresh bread when you sit down. Metered parking is never a problem and while on Fridays and Saturdays there can be a line, it is well worth the wait.

The manager and his staff are highly professional, and the food is delicious. We highly recommend this place. read more The manager and his staff are highly professional, and the food is delicious. We highly recommend this place.

The atmosphere was very cozy and relaxing. We ordered lasagna and carbonara, both of which were delicious. The pasta was prepared to perfection.
