The food was excellent, best Italian restaurant we’ve eaten in for a long time. Totally delicious. Server was very helpful and very good. Will definitely eat there again. The decor was not living upto the food! Quite bland, so it didn’t have the great atmosphere that would have elevated the overall experience. But we had a great night.

We had a party of six and the we were seated immediately when we arrived. The server for our table who is also the bartender is very busy and kept checking on us to make sure we are happy with our food. Great customer service. Food is delicious, some of us ordered the two can dine for $59 ( a lovely 3 course menu plus a delicious Tiramisu) ). The Happy Hour (all day happy hour for Monday and Tuesday) menu has good selection of food items pizza, pasta, meatballs, salad etc with generous portion to make you full. We will come back another time to try the lunch menu. Great place to dine and you can park in the underground parking free for 3 hours.

Hidden gem. Very quiet when we were there, the service was excellent, although a couple of the menu items we wanted weren't available, the food quality was great.
