I'm sad because I loved this spot and I'm disappointed the quality has gone down so drastically. Portions were very small and the food didn't taste special or interesting. The octopus came out room temp and had been sitting out. Entres lukewarm. The drinks were by far the best part of the meal and it took half an hour to get them. Service was all over the place but they get a pass because it's Valentine's Day. Do yourself a favor and try Rosanna's instead.

Two enormous peppers stuffed with meat, rice, cheese and sauce over a huge bed of spiral macaroni in their home made sauce. Came along with fresh baked Italian bread, their restaurant made herbed butter and a salad with their restaurant made dressing. Food was excellent and plentiful. We got the dinner for 2 for $23. We chowed down but still have an additional dinner for 2 in leftovers. If you are thinking of takeout of a T/W/T look up what they are serving on their website and if it strikes your fancy give it a go. You won't be disappointed.

I was also hesitant to try the Alfredo because it is made more authenticity without cream and I enjoy the Americanized version. I decided to take a chance anyway and got the Shrimp Romano with tagliatelle. It was one of the best Alfredo sauces I've had. Service was great also.

Dinner before a show at Cohoes Music Hall…read more Walking in, the restaurant was more casual than other Italian restaurants in the area. It was mostly empty at 530 on a Friday night, service was fine but it seemed to be just one woman. We started off with wine and I was pleasantly surprised at the pour. We decided to start with the arancini. They were as expected, a creamy and cheesy risotto, breaded and fried. They were a little bland, and the sauce was very spicy, which we were not expecting, but was fine. The bread brought to the table was very crusty, maybe stale, the pesto dip was nice and the cute "A" in the balsamic was a nice touch. We then moved onto our entrees which were great portions. I ordered the Veal Francese. It costs an extra $5 to put this over pasta, for a $25 dish. So to my understanding, this dish is $25 for a piece of veal in a sauce and a half a cup of zucchini ... that doesn't make sense. Just include the pasta in the price. But, the pasta was great. You could tell it was made in house and had a great texture. The sauce was a thickened lemon/wine/butter sauce. The flavor was great but it was a little goopy. It was thickened with something like cornstarch as opposed to being reduced. There are many notes here, but it was a perfectly fine dish. I took half of it home and enjoyed it later after the show. My friend ordered the sorrentina, which was chicken and eggplant. She loved the dish and it was enormous, I did not sample it but it looked great. This is just a run of the mill average Italian spot. The parm cheese offered for the dishes was a flavorless shaker brought to the table. If you're looking to be impressed, maybe not the best spot, but if you're looking for a quiet dinner to catch up with a friend, why not!

It was great but only knocking off a star as the Alfredo sauce could've used some more salt. We also had the tiramisu for dessert which hit the spot, loved the amount of coffee in it!
