I've NEVER been this satisfied with a restaurant in my life.
Our waitress was above & beyond honestly such a sweetheart .
We started with fried calamari as an appetizer 10/10 it was so good. We were scared at first because of the light color.
We were pleasantly surprised.
We followed with our waitress suggestion which was a shared platter 10000/10.
A must try.
The meat was seasoned to perfection the sides were so good.
I'm definitely going back.
We took litchi martinis even they were amazing.

I had a very frustrating experience trying to book my bridal shower here.

I initially met with a manager to discuss hosting the event. She gave me the menu, & I told her I would be bringing my own cake, so dessert would be removed. She then made up an estimated price on the spot & said she would confirm with the owner.

Weeks went by with no response, despite multiple attempts to follow up. When I finally called again, a different manager gave me a completely different price & said she would also need the owner's approval. Once again, no one ever got back to me.

To make things worse, I was told two different prices for cake cutting - one staff member said $8, another said $4. This shows a lack of consistency & professionalism.

Overall, this place feels very disorganized, with poor communication & prices that seem to change depending on who you speak to. It made me very uncomfortable trusting them with an important event like a bridal shower.

On top of that, portions are extremely small for the price, wine is expensive despite being a lower-end brand, & the staff does not seem experienced in managing private events.

I would not recommend this place for hosting events, & I'm glad I decided not to move forward.

This review is about how to screw up a nice experience for $1.50.

The service we received was very good.
The food we received was ok. I ordered a pasta with tomato sauce & I asked for bread. I shouldn't have to ask in an Italian restaurant, but I had to.

The bread I received was terrible. Let's not forget this is supposed to be a decent italian restaurant. The 2 slices of bread were like melba toast. Hard with no substance. The kicker is that we spent almost $250 for a meal for & they had the hutspa to charge us $1.50 for those 2 lousy pieces of bread. We have averaged 2 visits a month over the past year or so but they won't be seeing my money any time soon. This was the true meaning of PENNY WISE & POUND FOOLISH not too say very insulting......
