    The food was good, we both enjoyed the dishes we ordered. We both are non-drinkers and ordered diet Cokes. They came to our table completely flat and watered down. When we told our waitress, she responded that they looked off to her but that is how the soda gun always dispenses so she suggested lemonade or water. You are charging over $30 for entrees and the only non-alcoholic options are water or lemonade? The women’s restroom needs attention. One stall doesn’t lock because part of the locking mechanism was ripped from the wall and was sitting on the floor of the stall. The other stall was dirty and looked like it hadn’t been serviced in a while.

    It was a very cute restaurant. The truffle cheesy garlic bread is the best Italian food appetizer I’ve ever had, and the drinks were really good.
