It's next to a dealership. The space once you enter, is really nice and open with a full beautiful bar. They also have a cute seating area. The server gave us the menu and gave us tile to review. Pretty easy to look over as they have your Italian basics. We opted for a cranberry and blue cheese salad with candied nut's. We ordered a full to share. I wish we were told it was too big for just 2 people. It's good for about 3-4 people. Without knowing, we also ordered Brussels spouts, which again is for 3-4 people. As for my entree, I ordered the chicken rigatoni. I didn't get to really enjoy it because I was super full by the time it came out. It was saucy and tasted good with the chicken bites. My husband had their famous lasagna. It came out hot so they must bake it as you order which is great! I will say, he said it was extremely cheesy. He had to look for the pasta in it. He did enjoy the flavor. Circling back, we got full with the salad and a small portion of the Brussel sprouts. We had to take our entrees to go. The waitress noticed and said she should have told us that the portions to the appetizers were large. I would have just ordered 1.

I considered getting a half & half but $50 was just really expensive and shocking to me for a pizza. I'm glad I tried it first with the slices. Personally there's some other paces around town I'd prefer first.

The size was generous! There's a nice thick crust of bread with a lot of good topping. I guess they measure the twelve inches from the edge of the inside crust across to the opposite edge of inside crust, not from the outside crust to the outside crust. Hence, the pizza was huge. I ate several raviolis and one pizza slice, plus a piece of garlic bread and completely full. It all tasted good! The house red wine was a chianti that went well with the food. It was served room temperature and wasn't anything to shout about, but it was a good accompaniment with the food. Glasses of water had a good amount of ice on this 100+F day. Service was fast, friendly, yet not overly hovering. Interior of restaurant was like well-maintained late '70s, with tables and comfy padded booth seating and clean wood paneling. The bathroom, however, was not 70s era, but modern and clean.

Ambience: very comfortable, although very loud inside the dining room-background music along with many patrons conversing. But our wait staff was great. Friendly and engaging - but not over bearing. In fact, i gave this place an extra star just for the wait staff. Other than that, i would rate their entrees...as decent, but there is room for improvement to help raise the bar. Hence 3.5 stars overall Appetizers: 1) fried raviolis - not bad, filled with spinach and ricotta and arrived with marinara dipping sauce 2) fried calamari- too much coating which over powered the delicacy of the squid. Plus, it arrived cold. It came with two dipping sauces which helped. Entrees: 1) Two pies: Sicilian and soppresaata & hot honey: both pies were decent, arrived straight from the oven 2) farmers market salad: very fresh greens, tender pieces of chicken but was missing the fresh corn. 3) spaghetti w/meatballs: nice entree with a mild sauce, but meatballs tasted more filler than actual meat. And the garlic bread was cold 4) rigatoni aka vodka: very nice entree and our diner ordered it with gluten free pasta 5) spaghetti parmesano: entree looked great when it arrived- mild sauce w/al dente noodles but the chicken was over cooked and even dry with a layer of mozzarella that didn't help. And again arrived with cold garlic bread. Would i return? in a few years. but the service was good which made our evening. However i wish all the pasta entrees and calamari appetizer were as good as their pies. Again, little details with their appetizers, pasta, and salad dishes would have made our dining experience more enjoyable.

Terrible business practice!! Called several times at 830p and each time I was hung up on. I drove 7 min to the location and asked are they closed? The lady said yes. I asked why advertise 9p close on the website? The young man looked confused (faking) he looked at the clock (now 840) and replied well we were slow that's why. Absolutely rude and unprofessional!!! I had hopes the Newest owners would be better than the last. Not at all. This place is not recommended for the bad customer service and it's a family owned business so I'm sure the family including the two tonight don't want business after 8p bc it's "too slow". Myself and another lady were at the door but got turned away. read more

I picked up the box and it felt like there was nothing in it. Both bad signs but I was hoping to be pleasantly surprised at the " halal" offering. Very disappointed! It looked like and tasted like a frozen pizza and not a good one. The toppings were sparse, the bell peppers were even diced in little cubes like a frozen pizza. The crust was chewy not in a good way. Vanilla colored and thin no variation in color. The experience cost about 19.00 including tax. A Tombstone frozen pizza is better. I really don't understand the reviews and the review score was one of the reasons I chose this business. If halal is needed try Redrunner, they are very good for the price..and friendlier!
