Very disappointing. Bolognese sauce was very sour & Napolitano sauce bland. Bolognese was so sour it was not consumed. Provided polite feedback. Server was very polite but owner or manager did not even offer anything to offset the experience. We asked for the bill & were charged full price. I politely mentioned this to server who was very nice but who s response was "I am not the owner". We paid & left, returned home after paying close to 100$ to sit in our dining room to have dinner. Looking back I should have insisted to see the owner. We recently moved to the region & discovered great places to eat. This one has been stricken off the list. I must say we have been spoiled with amazing Italian food so buyer beware.

Quaint Italian restaurant. Kids loved the chicken with lemon sauce. The spaghetti's with palpatine sauce is the best dish we ordered. The carbonara wasn't spectacular but it was good. fried Calamari was delicious too.

- The worst Arrabiata sauce I've ever had & I barely ate nor was I going to finish my plate! - Service was way toooooooooo slow! - The calamari was ok but very cheap on the portion for the money! - The service - unfortunately the waitress did not come to apologize for the delay to bring the food - the cook must have been lost in finding the recipe how to make a sauce nor did they comment on our constructive comments even though we gave a very generous tip above the minimum which we should have had 2nd thoughts on . - we do not recommend this restaurant unless you'll try something else.

Nice & cozy restaurant. Great quality Italian food. Good size portions. I liked the Gio salad more than the Cesar. They offer a choice of pasta noddles that are combined with different sauces. I had the penne with meat sauce. My wife & mother both had the linguine with Paesano sauce. All were very tasty. They have a good wine list with reasonable prices. Staff is very friendly & attentive. Free Parking in front of the restaurant or across the street in the public lot. We will return.

The quality of food & service was excellent. The wine selection & prices are good. The Gio salad is served with a very tasty dressing. I would recommend that salad over the Cesar. The pasta dishes are plentiful. I tried the Penne with meat sauce. The others had the Fettuccine with the Paesano sauce. Both tasted wonderful. The ambiance is nice & our server was professional & attentive. We will return again.

We wanted Italian pasta & did have what we came for. The atmosphere was very nice in the back deck, very homey feel. The service was good, bathrooms ok, careful of the top stairs & un even floor due to an ageing building. Parking close but neat full. The food was ok, nothing to write home about. The escargot with cream sauce was bland & had fewer snails than mushrooms, cutting corners, it was obvious.

Restaurant intéressant pour ses prix.... Mais les soirs de théâtre, trop peu de personnel sur le plancher ce qui occasionne un service très lent. Plats "ordinaires"... pâtes à l'huile trop sèches, "galette" de veau moyenne - trop mince & trop cuite. Plat de poisson .... purée de pois... aurait été meilleure chaude! C'était froid! Lasagne.... cumul de pâtes dans sauce rosée...

Cela dit, restaurant qui peut être intéressant, mais pas les soirs de théâtre où on est sur le stress d'être servis à temps!

Service was good. Space needs love. Finally food was ordinary. Apetizers such as calamari should not be on the menu. Seafood pasta had no taste other than the cream used in the sauce, & almost no seafood in it. Others ordered veal à la lemon & another with cream sauce. Again, no taste. Finally, couldn't think they could serve a weak espresso. Not the usual chef obviously. Not worth the price either. Will give them another chance.
