We started with the Burratta with the melon and prosciutto, crostini and the arancini. Both were excellent. Then we had the chicken rollentini, the coconut chicken, the chicken saltimbuca and the nonnas penne. Everything was tasty. The drinks were good. I had the cantaloupe martini, hmmm nothing cantaloupe about it other then the color! They could have put a sliver on the glass! They had it, because it came with our crostini!

They do have a kids menu & a variety of options on the menu so even the pickiest eater can find something they'll like. The food was great but service was non-existent. Unfortunately, no information from the server about the specials, and sure enough, the thing I settled on was out. Nothing about the bread service or veggie dish that came out first. The order came out at the wrong time, the server never came back to refill drinks (we flagged down someone else who then seemed to take over our table [thankfully]) and overall he was a bit rude. I was extremely disappointed because it was my mother's birthday and it was such a bad experience that it took the fun out of it. A couple years ago we came here and had the same server and had a similar experience. Unfortunately, Marko is a subpar server. The food that we got was great; you will NOT leave hungry. We all ate and have leftovers for lunch tomorrow! Definitely try the meatball app, and the veal francese will not disappoint!

The very warm welcome from the hostess, who also wants you to choose a table or booth that you will be comfortable in, bless her kind heart. Mark the waiter, professional, knowledgeable and very attentive. He is a waiter from another era, when the job was respected and dearly appreciated. He managed the entire dinning room with ease, and no one was left waiting or wanting. There was a young male assistant who was equally as professional and attentive. The menu and specials were extensive with excellent prices. I highly recommend the clams casino app and manicotti, but the linguine and red clam sauce was superb. Large salads with delicious dressing, I had the blue cheese, so good and ample amounts served. Large bread basket and olives served quickly upon being seated. This is and excellent restaurant, immaculate and comfortable. I was so thrilled with my lunch experience today. What a gem. Bravo

Out of the 10 entrée choices only two items were available. The waitress came to our table took our orde. Two of us ordered the pork chop entree and I ordered chicken Parm. After we gave our order, the waitress came back to our table and said I'm sorry we only have two items to pick from so what you ordered we don't have. Unbelievable to say the least. How can you open up a restaurant business and you're out of everything except for two items which is a steak burger or steak. She went on to say we do have pizza and some hors d'oeuvres. However, we didn't go there for pizza. We wanted to sit down and have a very nice meal, before the show which never happened. Something is very funny here and not right. I never ever encounter something as funny as this. If it wasn't for the entertainment that we went there for we would've gotten up and left immediately.

The service and the food is authentic Italian, not American Italian, and my wife and I throughly enjoyed it. They have excellent cocktails but the food is the star. I had the braised special of the day which was the short ribs served with rosemary potatoes, green beans and broccoli. It was seasoned to perfection and the meat just fell apart it was so tender. My wife had the best Penne ala Vodka made with a very light and sweet sauce and not the heavy cream base cause you usually get. Plenty of pancetta and some onions in perfect balance. Plenty of shrimp as well. I almost forgot. We had the Burrata as a starter. It was platted like a five star meal and was delicious. Creamy Burrata , prosciutto with cherry tomatoes, arugula and EVOO. It set the expectations high and was delicious. A great portion size that was great to split. They easily accommodated our dietary restrictions. I have gluten issues and my wife is allergic to garlic. We will return soon.

We had the ricotta and honey on toast, meatballs, prosciutto/mozzarella to start, some white wine and of course PIZZA! The pizza was light and cooked perfectly. We had the Dolce Salato and the Diavolina. We loved the Dolce Salato! The Diavolina was good, but I think some more spicy salami or maybe an additional spicy component would have been a good addition to the pizza. It needed just a little bit more on the flavor side. But still everything here is high quality and I would recommend! Service was excellent. We were immediately seated and had the option to sit inside or outside. I first sat inside, then we moved to a larger table outside. What I really appreciated as a new mom, was their openness and flexibility for coming in with a stroller. I was nervous to be a burden to the restaurant, but they were super accommodating. Thank you On room for improvement, I think on a hot day, having the inside space being much much cooler, than the outdoor seating (especially for newborns/really young kids/elderly) would be beneficial. Yesterday it was cool inside to start (and remember I chose to move outside), but they started to leave the front door open to allow for easy movement of staff and guests between inside and outside, which made the indoor space get warmer over time. And I totally get that for the ease of movement for staff/guests, but maybe consider keeping it super cool on the inside, so that kiddos/elderly have a cool space on a really hot day to not overheat. The vibe here is great. Chill, warm and light! Come with family and/or friends and enjoy!
