Review & Rating
Welcoming place. Service was just above average. Pasta were overcooked and they bathed in lot of sauce. It was too expensive given the quality.
Went there for dinner with some friends. Good food tasting and fantastic service. Loved the outdoor seating.
Excellent food and service. On a pleasant day, sitting at a table on the patio adds to the pleasure of the meal. Try the calamari salad/appetizer for a special treat.
The eggplant spaghetti- hands down the best on this blue dot.
My name is Mario, so I already had a common thing with the owner, lol. This by far has the best authentic Sicilian food I've ever tasted. The atmosphere is upscale, classy, and cozy, the service is excellent, the food is top notch, even the scenery on the outside is beautiful. Oh, and the prices are great. This to me is a 5 Star restaurant with 2 star restaurant prices. Mario, the owner saw me and my wife taking pictures, he rushed outside to take pictures of us both together. That meant a lot. I highly recommend this restaurant.
The food here is amazing! And the service is great. Has a nice courtyard patio and the inside is very cute and has a nice feel to it.
This place has the worst garlic bread I've ever had. The risotto was just ok, but the desserts are the best thing on the menu.
Had the bruchetta and red snapper and they were both delicious and satisfying. Loved the ambiance and friendly service from the owner Mario.
Food was mediocre. Would give food 3 stars -- took another star off for price. Food portion and quality not matched. Lobster ravioli was delicious but not well executed (sauce was like a thin bisque so it didn't stick to the ravioli). Also it was like $35 for 5 small raviolis. We left hungry. Bread was so stale, the slices were curving. Unacceptable to serve bread that was so stale it seems like it was sliced 3 days prior. "House wine" is cheapest wine available. Bottom shelf. We won't come here again.
The atmosphere here is very peaceful. Food is fantastic. Perfectly made ravioli, pesto pasta and tiramisu dessert. They even have day wise special's which is off the menu. Very communicative and cordial staff.
I have dined here annually for over 10 years. My experience however was disappointing last night. The ambience was great, service pleasant, but the quality of the food has declined. I get the same few dishes when I dine Italian so it's easy to compare. The value here was poor compared to a dozen other options in the city.
The ambiance is cozy, charming... Like being welcomed into Mario's house. The menu is perfect if you're looking for some great pasta dishes, and classic appetizers. Portions, taste, quality and service were all fine. Adding this as a favorite of mine.
