everything about our experience here last night was amazing. the service was wonderful - our waiter was very attentive and helpful! the food was soooo good and the drinks were reasonably priced. for food we had: fried artichokes, sea bass special, tortellini special w vodka sauce & shrimp, and chicken parm. all entrees came with a soup or salad to start and the portions were huge. and the pasta that comes with the chicken parm was incredible as well. the dip that comes with the complimentary bread was so good we are even going to try to make a similar dip at home! we can’t wait to go back!!!

Absolutely delicious food! Little unfortunate that I made a reservation online and still had to wait about 15 minutes to get a table. Desert was amazing also, so moist and flavorful. Our server for the most part did a good job, informed the chef of my SO's food allergy, had our food order correct with no mishaps at all, however he wasn't very present. During out dining experience he showed his face maybe 4 times. Once for drink orders, then food order, then to check on our food after it came out, then when desert was served. That was about it. Lucky we weren't too terribly thirsty because our drinks weren't refilled except for once, when he showed up to check on our food. Overall, a wonderful experience, especially for our 3rd anniversary! Picked this place because of the decent prices, fancy-ish atmosphere, and it's not a chain restaurant. Found a great place to get food out of state that isn't fast food!
