    Unfortunately this restaurant is very inconsistent. We ate here 6 months ago and the food was exceptional. Last night it was very mediocre to not good. We were very disappointed.

    Service was great but menu choices seemed limited. I would have liked a pasta with a tomato sauce.

    Food and service are always fantastic. We were there early so there was virtually no noise but on a busy night it can get a little noisey. I'd highly recommend as your neighborhood hot spot or a business meal.

    We ordered a steak. Who goes to a really good Italian restaurant and orders a steak? So, stick with the Italian food which is always so delicious at this place. Service is always wonderful.

    We were a group of four, it was reunion and the restaurant held up to the occasion. I ordered two hearty appetizers. The artichokes cooked in olive oil were dense and creamy, they exceeded my expectations, followed by eggplant parmesan of medium sized crispy eggplant rounds stacked high in a thick but not overly rich tomato sauce. The preparation was elegant and delicious. White table cloth and napkins made for a nice presentation.

    This is a great neighborhood gem. The food is consistently fresh and delicious. The service is very good and, unlike some restaurants, you can enjoy a festive but generally quiet environment.
