We were driving through town and went out of our way to stop here because my husband had heard such…read moregreat things about this restaurant. One of the biggest reasons we chose it was because they advertised a dog-friendly patio. Before being seated, my husband specifically went inside to speak with the hostess because rain was expected soon. The hostess acknowledged the forecast, and my husband said we were completely fine sitting under the patio umbrellas as long as the restaurant was okay serving us outside. She assured us that it was not a problem. We were seated on the patio and intentionally looked through the menu quickly because we wanted to minimize the server having to come outside in the rain. When the server came out, she immediately commented about the weather and was clearly upset about having to serve the patio. We were sympathetic and tried to be as easygoing as possible. What happened next was honestly bizarre. She pulled out her notepad and just stared down at it without saying a word. We ordered drinks and then sat there in silence waiting for any kind of acknowledgment or follow-up like, "What would you like to eat?" After about 15 awkward seconds, she finally looked up visibly irritated. I ordered, she wrote it down without saying anything else, and then stormed back inside. At that point, we decided we no longer felt welcome. We brought the waters back inside and told her she could cancel the order. Her response was simply, "Are you sure?" The entire interaction consisted of maybe six words total from our server. We later called to let the manager know what happened. While they did apologize, the only solution offered was for us to place a to-go order instead. That completely missed the point. We weren't looking for free food or special treatment -- we just expected basic hospitality after being explicitly told they were happy to serve the patio despite the weather. This entire situation could have been avoided if the restaurant had simply told us upfront that patio service during the rain was an issue.

We chose a high top by the bar and were told there was no table service, but the bartender ended up coming over to wait on us anyway. The inside of the restaurant is pretty, spacious, and has a lot of natural light due to the floor to ceiling windows. The food was honestly just ok. The baked artichoke dip with pita bread was good (7/10). It was creamy, cheesy, and the pita was warm with a nice chew to it. The gnocchi left something to be desired, in my opinion. The sauce was a little bland and the dish could've used some cheese or something to boost the flavor. The side salad was as expected. The burger was our favorite. It was juicy, the bacon was crisp, and the BBQ sauce wasn't too sweet. The tots were crispy and lightly salted. Parking is on the street out front. We found a spot about a block or two down and didn't have an issue with the short walk.

Omelets were dry and to be honest the worst I have had in any restaurant. We are not hard to please, but the experience here was not in any way pleasant. We were each given a very small goblet of water both of which were emptied early on and never offered a refill. We had been on our way to another local restaurant but decided to try this spot because I had heard good things. Our experience did not support this at all. I sincerely hope this was not typical, and will not recommend to anyone. What we had hoped would be a good experience was anything but good. Don't even want to give one star, but must rate in order to post.

You order at the counter, find a seat and they bring your order out to you. We were there on a Saturday night and it was packed. Seating is first come with a bar, individual tables and large communal table. It was busy so we did have to wait a short time for someone to vacate a table big enough for eight. We really wanted burgers but they informed us there was a 45 minute wait on food from them. They did tell us the pizza place was only about a 15 minute wait. We decided to stay and order pizza and weren't disappointed. The margherita pizza was very tasty with a nice amount of mozzarella cheese and their special with all the meats and hot honey was excellent. They were having a magic show on the stage side of the hall which the kids seemed to be enjoying. The only thing that was a bit confusing is you enter the room and have to walk through the room to the back to order at the windows but it's not clear how it works. Especially if it's packed and people are standing everywhere and blocking the windows. We stood at the entrance behind another party that were there before us trying to figure out if they had to wait to be seated or where to go after entering. A sign instructing you to keep walking and order at the windows would prevent people from just standing in the doorway.

Wheeling seemed to be somewhere in the vicinity of our drive to Morgantown tomorrow so I decided to stay the night. Looking for a place for dinner, I stumbled upon this place on Yelp in wheeling. Little did I know what an iconic place this is. We arrived at 5:15 on a Wednesday evening bc we are getting old. A couple leaving at 5:15 made us see our future. We were fortunately seated immediately. The inside is SO CUTE. I can't get enough of it. It felt like such an authentic Italian experience. Our server was incredible. So nice, personable, helpful. We started with our beverage orders. I went with a little something off their cocktail menu the elderflower martini which, exactly as I expected, was way more like spiked juice than a "martini" but I wouldn't want it any other way. Don't think I wasn't intrigued by the fried cheese but we have been eating a fair amount of that lately so instead of offering an app, I opted for an entree (stuffed rigatoni) and a side of broccoli. GF ordered fettuccine with red clam sauce. She got a house salad and I didn't for some reason. The broccoli was seasoned wonderfully but the texture wasn't as crisp as I would have liked. The rigatoni and the house sauce was ORGASMIC. That sauce is incredible I would gladly buy it by the jar. The rigatoni were al dente pillows of creamy ricotta heaven. Spectacular. GF regarding her red clam sauce pasta, "delicious". We also ordered the tiramisu to go so stay tuned on that.
