Plenty has changed but the meatballs and pasta sauce are as good as they've ever been! The salad has been vastly improved too! The staff are lovely and friendly, and the atmosphere is really inviting and fun. This place has set the bar for Italiam food all my life and I have yet to find another that rivals them.
