Overall a good visit and recommended.
This place has amazing service and the waiter was very witty and friendly. We enjoyed our interaction with him. The food was amazing! The bread they give as service was so addictive as well. The wagyu meatballs were so good as well as the calamari. I don’t know how the calamari is not chewy yet soft crispy on the outside. We love to come here every time and are amazed at how they make standard dishes so extraordinarily!
A good Italian-American fusion food. The ingredients and flavors are too rich and buttery, hence the Italian freshness is missing. That is why every dish is incredibly high in calories. Too much sauce, too much oil and a lot of cheese. If you are looking for an authentic Italian dish, this is not it.
my boyfriend and I came here for our anniversary and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. the atmosphere is perfect for the special occasion and our server was so nice and hospitable. I loved the chef’s antipasto board and spaghetti and wagyu meatballs. we also got the fettuccine alfredo, which we didn’t really like because the cream was overpowering and the pasta didn’t have the best texture. at the end of our dinner, they surprised us with a little lemon cookie platter to celebrate our anniversary which was such a lovely end to our night. we’re thinking of coming here yearly as a tradition from now on!
I went here with my best friend for a girls lunch, there was at least 10 other tables with middle-aged women at them, lol, so that’s the crowd. The food was OK - definitely not true to real Italian standard. It’s very “Americanized”. The best dish we had was the crispy zucchini, and very tasty lemon sauce The salad was OK, way too many red onions and the mushroom ravioli were overcooked and rely heavily on the cream sauce. The atmosphere is very interesting and beautifully decorated. Clean bathrooms. The wait staff seemed very intent on trying to make a tip. Whenever we needed our server though, he wasn’t available. It’s so frustrating when service people interrupt you in the middle of conversations constantly but then whenever you need something, they are nowhere to be found.
