The food was absolutely delicious! There was a 1 hour wait to be served but it was well worth it. I chose the seafood pasta and my husband had the veal. The bread, salads and appetizers(calamari) were soo good and the main course was outstanding. The server could not have been any nicer and we also had the pleasure of meeting the owner. This was a great experience and we will definitely be going back. My only problem is not visiting sooner. We've passed this restaurant for many years and never tried it out! Big mistake!

We made a reservation for our son's birthday after several friends recommended the location. The wait was minimal and the team there was friendly. Our server was Johnny and he was training a young lady named Kendall. They were both lovely. Johnny was able to talk us through the wine menu and make some great recommendations. We had the eggplant a la Michael, seafood fettuccine, Italian salad, and calamari. They also serve bread with oil and seasonings to each table. Everything was fantastic, kudos to the chef and kitchen team. Our son was given a cannoli dessert for his birthday and it was wonderful. We will definitely be back, thank you for a great 1st experience.
