    Eggplant parm and pasta with spicy vodka sauce were very good. The lettuce for the Cesar salad was soggy. The service was good up until the end. We requested our check several times and when we finally got it, we asked for the receipt but after 6 times asking and 15 minutes later... couldn't wait anymore and left without it.

    It’s a cute restaurant and service was very nice and friendly. Unfortunately the food is low quality and not Italian at all. My chicken Marsala was fried with brown gravy and mushrooms dumped on top. Now sweet Marsala wine flavor at all. It just tasted like the frying oil. The Amatriciana was soupy and all I could taste was cayenne pepper. Not balanced at all. I couldn’t taste the guanciale at all. It’s also operated by the sushi place next door which is bland too. I’m sure it all comes from the same kitchen. We won’t be going back to either place.

    Small Friendly neighborhood eatery nestled between two busy restaurants. Pleasant outdoor seating. Wine a good pour. Calamari average. Linguine vongole very good; clams fresh and tasty, broth excellent. Love the eggplant parmigiana. Chocolate Panna cotta for dessert was unusually topped with ice cream. People love their happy hour.
