    Place is not fine dining. Food was average. Had ravioli with pancetta. Mango margarita was very good. Ok place to go after an afternoon show.

    Went before our Broadway Show and definitely will go back. The food was really good- I ordered Chicken Franchise. Service is phenomenal, our waiter was quick, patient and cheerful. I’d recommend eating there to family & friends!

    Food was great. Service was brisk towards the end and we were asked to leave. Bathroom needs a total renovation for our restaurant of this level.

    Excellent food, great Italian setting and prompt service. Huge portions for the prices. Music was a little overbearing and loud but otherwise the noise level was fine and it was crowded when we there. Will definitely return.

    We dined in around 5:00pm on a Friday, not too noisy, and had a nice ambience. The service was great, fast and efficient. Our whole dining experience was through in about 45 minutes which was good considering we had a Broadway show to catch at 7:00 (we didn’t order appetizers nor dessert). On the down side the food was sub par. I ordered the chicken francaise, and it was extremely watery and lacking in flavor which left the chicken soggy and tasteless. I wound up adding more lemon juice which made it semi tolerable. The vegetables and potatoes though were well seasoned and tasted great. My boyfriend had the chicken parmigiana which again the marinara sauce was very watery leaving the chicken soggy and tasteless but like my sides his were fine. Maybe it was just a bad night but I don’t think I’d return.

    Seated within a few minutes of arrival (we had a reservation). We requested fusilli with vegetables. In less than 15 minutes, it arrived, steaming hot and loaded with peppers, mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, tomatoes and peas. Delicious and healthy.

    The restaurant is super cute. The garlic bread appetizer ($10) was good. I ordered the chicken piccata and did not like it. My daughter ordered the chicken Marsala and she did not like her dish either. The chicken was not grilled nor fried, but almost a boiled texture. Overall, we did not care for the food, but the atmosphere was great.
