Overall a very good experience. I had the cantaloupe, prosciutto, and date’s appetizer that I thought I would never finish, but it was all gone. I also finished with a great budino dessert. So chocolatey!!! The cappuccino that I ordered with it was very good, but came in a mug so big I could barely hold jt?!! The entree was lasagna and it was very good. Still trying to figure out the special flavor it had!! Service was very good!

My friend recently planned a surprise birthday dinner for me here! The indoor decor is cute & dimly lit Italian restaurant. Our waiter, David was phenomenal! He was so attentive and very personable. We started with the bread and the calamari. The bread was amazing with the sauce on the side and I did like the calamari, but the portion wasn’t a shareable size (there were 3 people). The marinara sauce complimented the calamari well. One thing I can say about the drinks, they did their thing! I had the ginger-peach margarita, and I switched the liquor out for reposado and it was so good. I was feeling it after two drinks. For the entree, I had the squid ink pasta, and it was tasty! I tried a few bites of my friend's Cornish hen, and it was soooo good. For dessert, we shared the Valrhona Chocolate cake with the vanilla gelato. The size was perfect because we were full off of our entrees. David sang Happy Birthday to me and my gosh, that man needs a raise and he needs to be a star. I would recommend this restaurant for a date night or a birthday dinner.

This place was great! My husband has Celiac Disease, and we were lured in by the promise of house-made, gluten free gnocchi. We were not disappointed! It was absolutely incredible! That classic gnocchi texture and its subtle flavor was already amazing, and it's also bathed in a creamy, delicious sauce that is all at once worthy of a first date, a last meal, and anywhere in between. We devoured it like we were dying of starvation - even though lunch was barely 2 hours before this stop, and we'd been eating our weight in New York's tastiest goodies all week. For dessert (because somehow we found room to eat even MORE food), we ordered the vanilla panna cotta with amarena cherries, to share. The portion size was perfectly fine, but the food was so incredible we nearly ordered a second one anyway, just so we could have more! The service here was amazing the entire time. Small talk with the waiters made us feel right at home, but they also maintained impressive professionalism and quick, efficient service that made it impossible to forget we were dining out at a nice place. We came in with early dinner reservations, with which I'd left a note about my husband's dietary restrictions (since he cannot have gluten even through cross contact), and as soon as I said my name, the waiter told us he'd read my note. When we were leaving, he told me I was doing a good job taking care of my husband. It was really sweet! Over all, I'd absolutely recommend this place. The atmosphere is beautiful and feels upscale, but the pricing is fair, and the staff is not only excellent but also quite friendly. I really loved our experience here.
