Yum yum yum. This is definitely a hidden gem. I would eat here everyday if I could.
Lots to choose from which is usually a bad sign of a restaurant but not in this case!!!! -

Just ok, I had the Giovanni Penne, and my dining partner the Cannelloni both were fine, but nothing exciting. Good prices, slow service so don't go in rush!

Was here on a Thursday night for dinner and it was busy. Good thing we had a reservation. Had the calamari appetizer which was a generous portion easily shared between 3 or 4 people. We nibbled on the calamari slowly amazed that it stayed crispy and did not get greasy. Had the veal parmigiana with side pasta. The veal was a bit overcooked so became chewy, but the sauce was tasty. If the veal had not been overcooked it probably would have been a delicious dish. The side pasta with a basic light tomato sauce was a good compliment for the heavier veal portion. My friend had the seafood pasta which looked amazing and was polished off quickly. I wished I had ordered it. We passed on dessert since the bread, appetizer, and main course was plenty of food. Service was great too.
Great little local place. Good to see it was busy so hope it will be around for a while. -

Made a reso for 6:30 and arrived on time. The place was packed. Decor was fairly cafeteria style. They don't have enough servers / there is no dedicated hostess. Took them over 10 minutes to address us. Even though we saw several people get takeout orders we didn't see people at tables actually eating. Anyways we were offered a couple of lousy tables for 2 and we declined and left.
Hire more people, please, then we might try it again. Not the sort of place you want to spend a long time waiting for food. -

One of my favorite places for a great dinner at reasonable price. Generous portions, always tasty. They expanded the size of the restaurant almost 2yrs ago but have again outgrown their space.
Since they've expanded I do find the kitchen service to be slower than before, hence they probably really need to hire more kitchen help. If you're aware of this fact and willing to take your time for the evening, enjoy a glass of wine, you won't be disappointed. If you're in a rush - get their take out service. -

ok, this place is awesome - gotta say the person that gave this place a crappy review should have stuck it out and actually ate the food - in fact how can you review a restaurant without tasting food....bad yelper, bad yelper.....been here twice food is fantastic both times....very light for pasta which is hard to do.
