The menu structure was different, as they're now highlighting more than just Italian classics. They are pushing other cuisines like steak, salmon, and chicken. Oh, and they also have new bread! No more olive oil. Say hello to (extremely) soft bread and VERY good butter. I came with a large group of family to celebrate a special occasion, so we opted for family style dishes. Here's what we had: +Tomato bruschetta, 9/10 +caesar salad, 8/10 +jumbo stuffed shells, 8/10 +fettuccine bolognese, 8/10 +baked ziti, 7/10 +grilled salmon, 9/10 +chicken parm, 8/10 +chocolate cake, 7/10 +tiramisu, 9/10

Just okay for me... usually expected with an Italian chain, yeah?…read more I had calamari, branzino, and crème brûlée. All were, unfortunately, just okay. Not great. Not bad. If you're hungry, you can eat it. It's not flavorless (well... the asparagus was ). The sauce helped, for sure. There were a lot of tentacles in the calamari and very few rings. That was consistent across the three orders of calamari at a table of 11. Mostly tentacles. Womp womp. No great flavor there, either... the marinara helped. And the crème brûlée... you get plenty, but it's not special. I do appreciate that it's not a deep crème brûlée... so there's a good crunch to custard ratio. Other than that? Meh. Good attentive service for a table of 11. No issues there. The ambiance was fine. Bathrooms were fine. It wasn't too loud.

It was our server's fav pasta so I had to pick this one deciding between two options It was plated so pretty too The garlic white wine sauce had a good tang to it as well which I really enjoyed Blueberry bliss 8.5/10 Prosecco based cocktail, very easy to drink Pear strawberry cocktail 6.5/10 Surprisingly kinda strong and had medicine taste I would get a glass of wine next time Vibes were nice and cozy, a little bit too dark imo Service was very nice, I got extra plate and small fork to eat my mussels without needing to ask Cannoli for birthday was free too (mentioned bday in reservation) Cannoli 7.5/10 Best cannoli I had. (I don't think this my taste Ind deserts tho hence the average score) I enjoyed the extra toppings (chocolate chips and syrup) and the shell has like cinnamon or cocoa powder or something for more flavor

We went here for little date…read more Free bread was good enough. Service was average. Chicken parm was weak. Just a chicken cutlet with small amounts of cheese and red sauce, it looks like it was more for presenting than enjoying. Not coming back anytime soon, and definitely not a top place to go if youre looking for the best chicken parm in the city!

It's been 8 years since I returned to this restaurant and it is still as good as it gets. This was…read moremy friends' favorite restaurant so I decided to treat them as well as revisit it myself. I ordered the Lavanda cocktail to start, a mixture of gin and prosecco. It looked as good as it tasted. My friends ordered white wine and a Cherry Coke Old Fashioned. The server (who was attentive and excellent) said the drink was not as sweet as it may sound so my friend gave it a try. He loved it! We shared the mussels and the sauce was the defining moment that made this appetizer. My friends ordered various pasta dishes and I went with the scallops. The scallops presentation alone made all of our eyes pop. The scallops were on individual beds of roasted red pepper cream risotto, sautéed spinach and a brandy cream sauce. It was perfection. All in all, another great meal and experience.

We ordered many things on the menu & every bite was spectacular from the burrata, bruschetta,…read moremeatballs as apps... the limone spaghetti, bolognese, scallops, gnocchi for meals... and the beverages of Old Fashion, spritzes, and coffees. Every bite was something to remember! Service was excellent and personal. Parking lot in back, so no street parking needed. This place deserves to have a wait list and no open tables! Go enjoy a little taste of Italy and their family recipes! You will not be disappointed.

We went back for a Valentine's Day date. Phil was our server again (awesome!)…read more We had the lasagna and shrimp pesto pasta special with a side of brussel sprouts and we both had their house salad + appetizer of cheesy garlic bread and marinara. While I don't think we should get an appetizer again because it was so much food, the marinara that can with the cheesy garlic bread was phenomenal. Both of our entrees were delicious! A ton of food. I wish we could have taken some home, but we're going to a show after. Brussel sprouts were to die for.... So good. Love the glaze they put on them. Again, I think we could have been fine with just our entrees and salads, but all the food we tried was so delicious - I am really glad we did. We may not make it back as often as I would like, but we love the ambiance, service, and food. This is a special place for us and we hope to share it with others.

Generally a "decent" experience overalls with some negative issues intermixed with some positives…read more The calamari was rubbery to the point where we could not enjoy eating it but our server told us the manager took it off our bill. The entrees (the monkfish special and the carbonara) were good but not great. I did appreciate the crispy, smoky pancetta in the carbonara but the monkfish had a somewhat mushy texture rather than the he firmness we would normally expect. The biggest issue, though, was the check. The calamari never came off, the meatballs for the children's pasta were more expensive than what was on the menu, and we were charged for an extra calamari dipping sauce that we did not ask for. Most of these problems were fixed but the whole thing illustrated a lack of attention to detail and an appearance of up-charging the customer in any way possible. Overall: Food: fair 4/5 Service: decent 3.5/5 Pricing: suspicious 2/5

Highly recommend the Creme Brûlée and coffee drinks. The restaurant has an old school vibe with white table cloths, candles and black and white photos of Hollywood legends and Italian Icons. The service can be on the slower side but the food makes up for it.

The spaghetti sauce, in particular, tasted more like something from a jar, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it just didn't stand out the way I had hoped, especially since it was Yelp-recommended. Street parking is available, which is convenient. I really wanted to love this place, and while it may work for others, I'd probably explore other options next time.

The gentleman behind the bar took excellent care of us and helped guide us through the menu and was even able to give me good old spaghetti with meat sauce and meatball it was very dense and filling as were the homemade noodles It got a little bit warm, but with this weather, I guess that's understandable. Other than that everything was great and we will certainly go here again. We finish it all off with a cannoli, which was also right on time.! Oh yes, plenty of cold water and some classical wine that we kinda got hooked on in Italy
