  Classic Italian! Want everything on the menu, especially the eggplant, veal, and rib eye.

  Food was okay at best, staff is extremely friendly. Probably the only positive from the experience. Portions left a lot to be desired. Me and my girlfriend are not large people by any stretch, yet we both left hungry from the restaurant and had to go elsewhere. Definitely not worth the evening or your hard earned money.

  My wife loves this place. I like it ok. The food is excellent but on the expensive side. 10 bucks for a Caesar salad? Whoa...

  First, this establishment does not have terrible service. On the contrary, our server was attentive and did a wonderful job of making our experience delightful, even though there were a dozen of us.
  
  The atmosphere was also very pleasant and romantic in certain areas where the lighting was dimmed. A pianist was playing on a baby grand throughout the evening which made the experience very lovely.
  
  But the food was somewhere between bland and okay. I ordered the chitarra (the dish where they cook the pasta in a giant wheel of parmesan) and my date ordered the filet. She had the caprese salad and I had the chicken tortellini soup. Both appetizers were good, but not great. My pasta was okay and I could definitely taste the parmesan but there was not much else in the flavor department. My date's filet was cooked perfectly but also lacked some flavor. Perhaps more of the sauce drizzled on top would suffice?
  
  Also the portions were very small for what we paid for. It is understandable to dine at restaurants with small portions that are full of flavor, but this place unfortunately did not have it.
  
  I'm giving this place two stars despite all the positives because I feel like if they can't deliver on the food then why eat there? It has potential and I hope they do get better, but until they do I won't be returning.
