We ordered the Beets & Balsamic appetizer and everything about it was wonderful. Both entrees (salmon and short rib ravioli) were both full of flavor and cooked well. The seating was comfortable. It wasn't loud inside so you could easily have a conversation. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back and would recommend this restaurant.

My wife did the short rib with the garlic mashed potatoes and carrots. It was delicious. I had to go with the gnocchi, which had a creamy sauce as well as a ragú. Man that was tasty! The highlight of the whole dining experience though was our server, Win. He was informative and helpful but so much fun. We now have a new friend that we hope to come back and see. The ambience was also consistent with a fine dining establishment. We'll be back!

My family stayed down the street at the HGI in Sandy for 5 nights for my son's soccer tournament and we visited Slackwater 3 times. Pro tip: join the waitlist on Yelp! Even during the week, the wait was 30+ mins each time. Food was great. We tried a lot of different pizzas - we got the Chicken Bro-Do, Hot Honey DP, Tikka Masala, Taco Camarones and Margherita. The airy artisan crust is the same on all pizzas and is delicious. I would recommend them all outside of the Camarones which felt a bit underwhelming as there was very little shrimp and flavor was flat. The Citrus Morita dry rub wings are incredible. We ordered these every night. The Morita chile sauce I would throw on everything. Super fresh and flavorful. It had the right amount of heat . The breadsticks are really good. Same bread that they use for the pizza and stuffed with a ton of cheese. Marinara sauce that comes with it is top notch. The Diablo sticks are spicy just to be spicy. The sauce isn't good. We switched to regular marinara. Would recommend staying away from these. Service is great. Everyone is very attentive. The staff definitely give off a chill energy but are focused, alert and friendly. This place is a must if you're in the area. Hope we can make it back someday.

We had reservations here on a Thursday night before a show at Hale. They were very quick, so we…read moredidn't have to stress at all about timing. My one complaint is that we made our reservation for 6:15, but at 5:55, I received a text that my table was ready and would only be held for 10 minutes. That means our table would be given away if we didn't arrive 10 minutes BEFORE our reservation time. The pizza is fantastic. Which I kept saying to my party through bites of pizza. It is the crust that makes this pizza. It is a little sweet but not in a dessert way. It has the perfect chewy bite. I was impressed. I never eat pizza crust, not ever, but it was good enough that my dogs didn't get their usual crust treat. We tried 4 different pizzas and I would recommend any of them.

Nice little Italian atmosphere with the dimmed lighting. Parking here is very vacant…read more Service was good and it seemed like all servers were trained to do everything in a consistent manner. Replacing cutlery, dishes, water, etc. was all standard practice and I don't think I remember asking for anything regarding that, which was nice. Caesar salad came with a fresh presentation. Neat, but a little too sour/salty for my liking, 7/10. Calamari was also a little too over-seasoned to my liking (lots of salt or herby powder), but the sauces and taste were good, 8.5/10. There was a meatball I tried and that was a very good meatball with sauce, 9/10. Carbonara was also a bit salty and heavy but hey, it's pork fat, egg yolk, cheese, and starchy salty water. Assuming they didn't cheat with cream, it was a smooth carbonara by carbonara standards. 8.5/10 and could be 9.5/10 if it was a little less salty. Overall a great place for dates or small-ish celebrations :)

I'm.... Confused. My friend and I came here for a…read morecelebratory dinner after hearing so many good things. We were pumped to try a new place. We ordered a variety of things. Nothing really stood out as anything beyond "good" and a fair number of things were actually bland or bad. We got the prosciutto dates and were both really confused because it was impossible to eat. Huge slices of prosciutto covering these cheesy honey dates.... It was impossible to make a bite. The meatballs were juicy, but bland. They gave us some bread and it was finally well below average for restaurant bread. Espresso martini came out burnt, and that sat on our table the whole night. Our entrees were fine at best. I got a pistachio pasta which was good, but not worth boxing up. My friend got the bolognese which sounded amazing but both of us agreed, it was not good. Something with the flavor was just not right. It took us 20 minutes to get drinks, even when my friend ordered a glass of wine. We ran out of water. The decor is very strange with prop hams and fake garlic strung up. Feels strange to talk about how authentic this food is by fake garlic and kitschy decor. I don't know. I'm hoping we just came on an off night, but I don't think I'd venture to come back again.

The waiters messed up one drink order but fixed it right away, their service and attentiveness were outstanding. I ordered a mocktail, very yummy, and the salmon ravioli which was delicious. I honestly could have eaten two more plates, it was that good. The lobster sauce balanced the salmon filling beautifully and the chunks of salmon on top were so moist and flavorful. Everyone else liked their food as well and we all want to go back! Overall, a really wonderful experience. Fyi, for larger groups (we had 8), they do attach a 20% gratuity.

The chef knew what they were doing!! Loved it! (My only critique is that the electrical wires need to be hidden and put away more neatly in the open cooking area. There was some major dust on the lamps back there in plain sight that definitely need to be cleaned... since it's right in the main staging and cooking area. )

My husband loves tiramisu and theirs is delicious. I love the ice cream that comes in a lemon. Five stars highly recommend coming here.

I ordered bottled water... didn't pay attention to the size. I got the big bottle. All good. Ate my bread too fast. I'm hungry and it was warm and soft with a nice chewy crust... Italian herbs on a plate, balsamic and evoo...good to go. The music is a an eclectic blend of the Temptations, easy listening and big band. Very relaxing. The food is fresh and good.

The baked ziti is hot, cheesy, meaty and just knowing the resultant and a healthy focus on non gmo ingredients and caters to vegan and vegetarian patrons is super appealing.
