Valentines dinner was a Table Hôte disappointement….

Were looking forward to the published « on line « menu & went over but instead got 45$ per TH options. (No notice on line prior)

Barely any bread that was never replaced , Caesar salad with no dressing, sent it back & it came back (we rarely ever do this) with more salad & still very little dressing.

Pasta overcooked with seafood the same.

Ossobuco may have had a powder sauce mix… ??? not good.

A Peculiar taste … not sure about it

To be fair this summer on their terrace we had a very good seafood Rizzuto, Caesar Salad, pizza & carbonara pasta,

So will give it another go one day but at 167$ dollars for three ppl this was a Very very dissatisfying meal, & this stings now days.

The Young fellow working was a very nice kid & said new ownership is about 3 years old so our good summer visit hopefully was within this same timeframe as the current management from our recent Feb 2026 visit.

Will give them a second chance because it may have been a one off, but if ANYTHING comes sub par from bread to salad to 1st bite of main; we will have to step up & politely leave.

Money too tight now days so to go out & be dissatisfied like that.

Sorry Al Dente but you asked for an honest review.

Will give you another shot, we fair people

Tarek & Shatoo (hope typing is good) welcomed us. The food was good, lobster pasta & osso buco. The atmosphere was calm & the music was well chosen classics. We will definitely come back.

Really not great tasting food. Super disappointing. I ordered the penne Montana with a Caesar salad & my partner ordered penne alla gigi. Let me begin by saying that both our pasta was overcooked. No sauce & it was dry & very bland in taste. The Caesar salad came with burnt croutons & little to no dressing for the salad.

Now I don't understand how you say'fresh pasta' & the pasta is clearly bought from a store & NOT fresh at all. You charge me 15.75$ for a Caesar & say that it comes with anchovies but all I got was a small packet of Caesar dressing that didn't even cover the salad whatsoever. & also, if you're going to advertise'anchovies' with your salad, I'd expect anchovies for a very basic Caesar salad with burnt croutons that came with a wheel of lemon. How do you expect me to squeeze a wheel of lemon ?? Very disappointing. I don't recommend this restaurant at all.

Their food is simply amazing, with great hospitality by the owner & workers there. I never ate pasta so fast in my life. You won't regret trying this place out!!!

Food was pretty mediocre. Pizza nothing special. Mussels were cold. Only pasta was decent. Atmosphere was bubbly on a thursday. Waitstaff overwhelmed. I guess people come for the byob.

I recommend this place for succulent pizza & al dente tasty pasta.

Good food & service. The new extra charges for whole wheat pasta & whole wheat pizza crust mean we visit less often. The Parmesan they offer with pasta dishes no longer tastes like real Parmesan from Italy. It has little flavor bowl

I used to go regularly but it had been several years since my last time, & last night was my last time. I ordered pasta with clams & I got a bowl of overcooked pasta swimming in cream with bits of things that maybe were clams.It wasn't even tasty. Oh, any the bread was stale. Serving bad food, & keeping it too cheap results in losing customers. P.S. Typically "pasta con vongole" does not have cream.
