First time last night and it definitely went past my expectations. Food was delicious and the staff is very sweet. I got the Chicken and Spinach Lasagna. Also the Lemon Cake is just to die for. Just perfection. ???? Great place for a date or special night. ❤️ 10/10 highly recommended.

Nice Place, nice atmosphere. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. She would get 5 stars. We ordered the cheese bread and mozzarella balls. Both were good.. the cheese balls were better Our entres were the Chicken Gorgonzola and the Scallops. The chicken chunks were very big and chewy plus the tomato slices were way too big. The sauce was good. The scallops were very good but the asparagus was so hard, it was inedible. The place didn't seem too busy for a Friday at 630. The wine list was very limited, which was unfortunate. I would consider this place for a second visit but I would most likely just hit the bar for apps.

The food was well seasoned and absolutely delicious. I had tortellini pasta with creamy marinara and chicken. My husband had the chicken parmesan. Both dishes were prepared perfectly!! Our server was very attentive and suggested a great wine to pair with our pasta. No missed opportunities here and I can't wait to try more dishes on their menu.
