   We love this restaurant but were a little disappointed that nobody could tell us what time the karaoke event would began on New Year’s Eve and left before the fun

   Waitress was very sweet and attentive, noticed the owner greeting all the regular clients and didn’t even look at my husband and I who were placed at a table in front of the door. Needless to say it was not comfortable. The food was great as were the drinks. I hate to give a restaurant business if the owner doesn’t even acknowledge me but I may give it another try.

    We went for appetizers and pizza. The meatball appetizers was so tasty, moist and good. Their sauce was perfect, not too acidic and not too sweet. Mussels in white wine sauce were outstanding, however the serving size should be bigger. Thin crust Pizza was cooked perfectly , great sauce, sausage and peperoni. Service was friendly, informative and quick, especially considering it was Saturday night and very busy. Comfortable seating. Can't wait to go back

    It could have been better; I had asked for a booth and was sat by a table near the bathroom, did ask the hostess if it can be changed and said she would see what she could do but never came back. So very disappointed because other hostesses in the past have been very accommodating.

    The food was absolutely delicious, but the service was lacking. After being seated at the table by the concierge/hostess, it took 15 minutes for the waitress to greet us and ask what we wanted for drinks. It was only 5:00 PM, and the establishment was not busy at the time. The delay in attentive service continued throughout the meal. We ordered bruschetta as an appetizer and three pieces were given for two people. It seemed like an odd number to have, especially when that third piece had to be split. What if there was a 4-person table? As repeat customers, we knew that their chopped salad (also an appetizer) was huge (like a meal), so we asked that the salad be split between the two of us. But they only came with the salad bowl and no dishes for the salad (like last time). So we used the small plates that were used for the bread, olive oil and parmesan cheese we were served. We also had the chopped salad at our last visit and it was served with the meal, not at the same time as the appetizer. After having dessert, the waitress acknowledged the lack of service and stated that dessert was on the house. Had there been an acknowledgement up front, our meal would have been much more enjoyable knowing that she knew that something was not right.

    There were some unexpected surprises this time! We made reservations and requested to be seated further in past the bar. they placed us right next to the bar. we requested to sit by the window and they said they were all under reservations yet the restaurant remained empty for the hour and a half we were there? The calamari was cold and chewy, the dinners were very good.

    My family had a fabulous dinner on Thursday evening. The food was very tasty and the atmosphere was great, too! We enjoyed the food and drinks while a wonderful musician was playing too. The family food favorites we dined on were the melrose peppers, the arugula salad, the whitefish with green beans and the lemon cake which my mom really enjoyed for her birthday.

    Food was good. We had the Danny's special which was delicious. Took a while before the waitress took our drink order and even longer for her to take a dessert order so we skipped it.

    We sampled several of the small plates and found everything to be excellent. The food was truly authentic southern Italian and we really felt as if we were dining there. We dined inside but there is a nice street front patio for warm weather.
