    Ngl...I had my doubts. Thought my dinner mate had set me up for the okie doke but much to my surprise this place was exactly as advertised and the food was delicious. Huge shout out to our server Scott who not only provided excellent service but provided mouth watering dinner recommendations for our table. We started the night off with the calamari. Had the fuselli (daily special) with seafood (menu modification) vice chicken and also ordered the mushroom and chicken Alfredo all with garlic bread as an appetizer. While some people just combine ingredients, it is clear that that the chef on duty can cook cook. (IYKYK) Warning the noise levels are not for the weak but when the food is this good... the energy in the establishment has to match it. 10/10 highly recommend.

    I've wanted to come here for a while and so glad I did! I'm GF and was very happy with the options they had. They brought me GF bread and there were 2 noodle options that night: spaghetti and gnocchi. I got the penne alla vodka and really liked it. My non GF loved their pasta and apps as well!

    Amazing! I will be going for sure! Especially for the shrimp scampi! I didn't even get it and it was my favorite thing on our table! Also the tiramisu was so good as well! Our waiter I think Dante was amazing as well! Good service and always attentive! The restaurant gave true Italian restaurant with low lighting and nice music!
