    Veal Parm
    John K.

    When we arrived at this restaurant we were seated promptly and were shown great attention by our waitress. The folks (presumably the owners) behind the counter could not have been friendlier. We had several veal dishes and one salmon entree. The brandy sauce was delicious and the red sauce on the veal parmigiana was satisfactory. Although the pasta was not homemade, it was cooked properly and paired well in the dishes we ordered. The prices were beyond reasonable. This restaurant is quite a value and is a nice stop for a quick Italian fix.

    Rosa sauce

    This evening, we had dinner at this restaurant. This was our first time eating at this restaurant. We arrived late 8 pm. We didn't know that it was closing. But they were kind enough to let us stay and dine in. There were still dining customers in the restaurant. Carolina was our waitress. Such a nice person. She offered us water and bread. Soon after we ordered our dinner. We were not rushed at all. We ordered calamari. It was excellent. We had salad and balsamic vinegar dressing. Both the salad and dressing were fresh and tasty. My son ordered Rosa sauce with gnocchi, my husband ordered the shrimp special and I ordered the chicken Marsala. All our entries arrived hot in temperature and tasted good. I highly recommend this Italian restaurant.

    Bruschetta
    Nicole P.

    Great local BYOB. First timer here. Casual atmosphere. The bruschetta was complimentary which was a nice touch. Everything was absolutely delicious from the bruschetta and mussels to the arancini and main dishes. Some of the best arancini I've ever had. Service was direct and to the point. Seems like they get a lot of repeat customers so that's a good sign. We will definitely be back!

    Fettuccini Alfredo!

    Came here on a Friday night and it was packed! We came for a 45th anniversary and though they weren't serving pizza in the dining room (due to the Friday night take out rush), they accommodated us and made the evening special. The bruschetta to start was amazing! We ordered the veggie pizza, Margherita pizza (both very good!), and the fettuccini alfredo was the highlight of the meal followed by the melt-in-your-mouth NY cheesecake! Our server was so sweet and had an authentic Italian way about her! Highly recommend this hidden gem of a restaurant!

    bread meat ratio.

    Very clean nice ristorante. Food was average, we ordered two chicken sandwiches. 1 grilled chicken sandwich, and a different kind of chicken sandwich on a long roll not a lot of meat way too much bread. there was a small piece of grilled chicken on it, the food came out a little cold the mozzarella was melted but it got cold, but we didn't complain we were hungry. I recommend the grilled chicken sandwich, was a lot of bread but the flavor was good and the bread was softer than the long roll. Their pizza looked really good, but I didn't try. Staff was nice. Prices were a little high, total came to $29.70 for the two sandwiches and one order of fries.

    ravioli

    This restaurant deserves allll the stars! We arrived with every intention of eating at the mexican restaurant right beside but my husband changed his mind when we pulled up! We had been traveling all day, 15 hours in the car with a 2.5 year old and 8 month old. We were starving and just wanted something more than fast food! The open sign was on and the front door was wide open! We walked in and were seated with no issue. However we were the only ones in the restaurant. After we had been seated and the sweet lady brought was water and bread my husband noticed on the menu that they closed at 8pm. I grabbed my phone to check the time, and OMG it was 8:30! We felt horrible! The husband was able to catch the ladies attention to see if they were closed, she said yes but we will serve you, sit down! We were ready to leave because we felt so bad! She wouldn't let us leave. We asked her what was easy to fix in the kitchen. We ordered ravioli and bolognese! It was all very good and the service was top notch! We made sure to leave a good tip!

    Another double date with our foodie friend's pick…read more And wow what a pick! A beautifully decorated (both outside and inside) quaint restaurant, with a visible pizza oven. We shared a literally beautiful antipasto for an appetizer. It boasted fresh mozzarella balls, eggplant, artichokes, sweet red peppers, prosciutto, and olives. We had a good and soft loaf of bread with a yummy olive oil and balsamic dip too. Our meals were ALL tremendous! We had pasta dishes - gnocchi marsala and fettuccine with clams - EXCELLENT! I had plenty of sauce left to dip the soft bread into :) The other couple had octopus (appetizer) and seafood atop squid ink pappardelle pasta. They loved their dishes as well. Of course we didn't have room for dessert, but our chocolate wine and other wines were definitely sufficient. BYOB's are great and money saving. This place is a bit of a haul but I hope to get back in the future !

They serve a delicious homemade bread that's warm when it's brought the table. In addition, it's accompanied by a dish of olive oil, with balsamic vinegar and what I believed to be a spicy dusting of pepper. It was a little too spicy for me - however, I did like the addition of the balsamic as a change from just olive oil. I would skip the pepper though, unless you like spice. We ordered the Polpette as an appetizer; it's a 'tradition' of mine. If meatballs are on the menu, I will always order them. These lamb, veal and beef meatballs were very good, and the marinara sauce they came in was excellent! The sauce is actually a 'roasted pomodoro' gravy - which is an 'intensified' version of a classic Italian sauce. It's made by roasting the tomatoes at a very high heat and almost caramelizing them. A little feta was added to the sauce, which really highlighted those meatballs!! We split the order - as 5 meatballs is quite a large appetizer! We decided to share two entrees - the Beef Short Ribs and the Lobster Ravioli. I always ask if the short ribs are lean - our server responded they were very lean...and they were. Soft, tender and very flavorful large chunks of beef, with a deliciously rich gravy with mushrooms on a bed a creamy garlic mashed potatoes! It was a superb dish! The website said the Short Ribs were the restaurant's most popular meal. Next, the Lobster Ravioli. The dish was a very 'delicate' one, with a very subtle brandy cream sauce. It had chopped jumbo shrimp and peeled cherry tomatoes with the raviolis. While the sauce tasted fine, it needed 'something' - we added pepper which helped. The raviolis were good - we couldn't taste lobster in the cheese of the raviolis - we assumed it was there. The chopped shrimps though provided a nice additional seafood flavor. I like my raviolis tender - the kind that almost melt in your mouth. The pasta here was firmer - a little more 'al dente', but it was fine. We ended our meal with the Chocolate Mousse. Served in a martini glass, the mousse had a velvety texture with a deep dark chocolate flavor. It was very rich yet light and fluffy; a good choice for dessert!

If none of those appeal to you, your only alternative is to choose a pasta with a standard sugo (tomato sauce). There are also a couple of sandwich options, but those are limited as well. There's little to no flexibility--if it's not on the menu, they're not likely to accommodate substitutions or custom requests. That said, the two young men I encountered were both professional and not snarky at all in relaying the limitations. It was what it was. I went with rigatoni in sugo, topped with grated Parmesan. The pasta was excellent--perfectly al dente, and the sauce had great flavor and consistency. Authentic and well-prepared. That said, the downsides are hard to ignore. The portion was relatively small, and with a bottle of Italian soda, the total came to $22.58--closer to $30 with tip. There's also no complimentary bread. Focaccia is available for $5, but it didn't look particularly appealing (a bit dark and overly crisp), though I didn't try it. Pros: * Delicious, authentic Italian pasta * Perfect texture and well-balanced sauce * Clean, attractive trattoria setting Cons: * Very limited menu (pasta and a few sandwiches) * No customization or flexibility * Price feels high for the portion size * No complimentary bread Overall, a tasty experience, but the limited menu and value may not work for everyone.

However, they offer a "waitlist," which can be helpful. Or do we as we do, and just get there as early as 5pm (that's toddler living, baby). Boy did this place fill up around 6:30pm. I typically lean towards the mediterranean options when I dine here, but they really have such a great variety. From pizza, to pasta, salads, or even burgers. We started with the Mediterranean combo platter which came with all the yummies- Humus, Baba Ganush, Tabbouleh, Falafel, Stuffed Grape Leaves & feta (plus, cucumbers for our gluten free diner). All to die for. As for entrees, our tiny queen got chicken fingers and fries- $17 is kinda crazy for a kids meal if I'm being honest, but it's a large portion. I went with the filet souvlaki which was so tasty- especially the tzatziki sauce. My mom went with the leg of lamb platter, and J got a greek salad- add chicken. Enjoyable, all around. For dessert, the tiny queen requested the brownie with vanilla ice cream and the birthday girl (my mom) opted for the lemon cake. Everyone's bellies were very happy by the end. My only complaint are some of the prices and upcharges. $4 add cucumber because someone is gluten free is crazy. Nonetheless, this will not stop us from returning. There are so many options to please everyone!
