Great spot for an early dinner! If you go between 4-5pm Monday through Friday, you can choose from a special Early Bird menu. For $25, you get a salad (which was pretty big) or pasta & fagioli soup (which was not as good as the salad), choice of 5-6 entrees, and chef's dessert. Also, wine, beer and well drinks during this time are only $4. As far as entrees, the Penne Maltese and Chicken Saltimbocca were wonderful!

Food is delightful. Traditional Italian. Service is very good and the ambiance is perfect. Any craving Good Italian food should go here. Highly recommend.

You gotta get the cheese pasta table side experience!! Super duper amazing service and upscale ambiance.

Hubby and I came here for the first time with some friends. We were celebrating his fiancé's birthday. Place was crowded when we came in. Went over to the bar and got a drink until our seats were ready. The bar tender waited on us right away. Very friendly and right on point with the drinks. Did not spare the alcohol, you will only need one unless you like your drinks strong. I ordered the salmon with risotto. The risotto was amazing, the salmon was slightly over cooked. My friend has the shrimp scampi and she said it was delicious. Her fiancé had the meat and spaghetti, with a side of sausage added to it. He also enjoyed his meal. My hubby's meal was amazing. So much flavor! It came with sausage and he ordered one meatball to go with it. The place is tight as they have many tables put out for seating, but decorated well. We all really enjoyed our dinner and look forward to coming back.

A friend suggested this place, and it was a wonderful surprise. Every table was full and the staff did a great job. Table-side cheese wheel pasta was popular

I've been looking forward to trying this restaurant for a while now, and was so glad that I did! The food was so delicious and the service was really great, too! The portion was big that I didn't get a chance to eat my entree because I got full from the appetizer and the side dish. The portion is very big and the atmosphere is really nice.

Got a last-minute reservation for a party of 13. From the moment we arrived, we had fabulous service, even though it was towards the end of the evening. The atmosphere was cozy, the tables were a bit close together but it wasn't a problem. Though the menu is pricey, considering you're downtown it's not terrible, each entree came with soup or salad which is rare to find these days. I went with the salad and devoured it, it was so good. I heard the pasta fagioli soup was good too. The entrees were really good portion sized and very tasty. I stuck with eggplant parmesan, delicious and had plenty of leftovers. The hit of the night was the cheese wheel pasta, and the show that came along with it. It was an overall fantastic dining experience. It isn't easy to find a spot for a larger party, but they accommodated and we were well taken care of.

Where do I even begin???? Walking in the hospitality was warming and welcoming. Our server was seasoned, knowledgeable and honest. The early bird menu is a STEAL. You get soup or salad (which are both very good) , a select entree from the early bird menu, cannolis and a house made shot of Limoncello for 25 American Dollars. By the way a shot of Limoncello comes with all entrees but you have to request it. The Bada Bing is a whole experience in itself. You are able to order The Bada Bing as an appetizer and share amongst the table. The ambience screams old money. There is street parking and garage parking but no valet.
