We went in for Lunch, we were seated quickly on arrival at around 2.20pm. I asked for the server to take our order at 2.40pm. Ordered 1 salad, 3 entrees & 2 drinks. Salad came out in 20-25mins. As the food did not come out until 3.40, I called the Manager. Shockingly, I described my children being really famished & have been waiting for an hour to get the food. His response was the restaurants was busy, & they gave us the salad & the wait was normal. Although large groups of customers received their orders before us. He was absolutely arrogant & never apologized..
once we got our food, despite our hunger, it was not extraordinary, no way worth the wait. For me the pesto cavatappi was too much egg, couldn't get the flavor off my tongue.
Pollo Milanese was meh.

The only reason I gave this experience a two stars, for our server who was very kind & things were not in her hands, she apologized & didn't not charge us for the salad.

Great food but poor & slow service. We waited for our order & bill for at least 15 minutes each time. (Over 30 mins wait time). Food was delivered quickly though. That was still ok, but when we asked to take our picture (which doesn't take more than 30 seconds to 1 minute), the waiter refused, which we found was a little too rude. He said he was too busy, though the restaurant was only 50% full. Someone from another table found it rude too, & gladly offered themselves to click our picture instead. This was my second time in the restaurant but saw the rudeness for the first time. Might wanna rethink coming here again.

Favorite cozy restaurant in old port.

No matter how many times I come by, I've always been seated quickly even when i do not have a reservation. Service is always great & consistent no matter the waiter. The menu is simple but well executed.

I keep coming back for the food, atmosphere & great service.
