We love this place. The staff is always friendly and the food it great. It all tastes fresh and perfectly cooked. The garlic bread and meatballs is a must have. The large flakes of garlic are crispy. The meatballs are tender and melt in your mouth.

We came here to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and this restaurant did not disappoint us. Service was excellent! Everyone we’re so kind & accommodating with our request. Rosanna, our server, was very patient with us. She recommended some of their popular food. From their garlic bread, Caesar salad, prosciutto pizza, carbonara, short rib lasagna & bone marrow pasta, everything was so delicious! authentic Italian taste. Highly recommended!

The experience was good, but atmosphere was more club than dining. Food good, service was good based on number of tables attended but not what I anticipated.

This place has gone downhill from when I last visited two years ago. I went for dinner on a Friday night with a small group of friends and we ordered the gnocchi, ravioli and carbonara. I took one bite of my carbonara and it was the most TASTELESS pasta I have ever had in my life. It actually made me want to gag. I tried flagging down the waiter but it was so extremely loud and chaotic inside that it took 10 minutes. He came over and I asked for the gnocchi instead and pointed to my friend's plate of gnocchi. He came back another 10 minutes later and brought me a plate of the ravioli and said here you go. At this point my friends were already mostly finished with their plates so I said forget it, not worth telling him he got my order wrong when I clearly pointed to the gnocchi. To my shock I tasted the gnocchi and it was ice cold and equally as tasteless. It tasted like the frozen gnocchi you get at Trader Joe's. And it was over $20. My friends agreed and we all were so disappointed that each of our pasta dishes were COLD and had zero flavors whatsoever. The ambiance was also so beyond loud that I couldn't hear what anyone was saying without screaming over the table because of the music. The crowd was also full of drunk 20 and 30 year olds and a mix of the weirdest looking people who were clearly not there for the food. I'm in my late 20s and it was such a weird crowd of sleazy girls and guys. This restaurant literally doesn't offer anything worthwhile. Zero stars.

A little Italy staple. The carbonara and pesto gnocchi were delicious. They have a nice outside dining area for the overflow. Make a reservation if you want to dine inside. The service was excellent.

Just had a couple appy's and drinks, service was amazing and the food was incredible, the garlic toast was amazing.
