The food was amazing. It didn’t take too long. The skewers, the chicken and the lamb shank ( that would melt in your mouth ) were my favorite to name a few. Our waitress made our experience over the top. She was probably one of the best servers I’ve had in a long time at a restaurant.

Best pork chop ever. The tuna appetizer was tasty too. A special night out that myself and family enjoyed. My son commented that the selections were “real Italian dishes” the kind you would get in Italy. Authentic. Would definitely recommend to others. Attentive service but not overbearing. Nicely paced.

The food was very good and a good value. We had five people ordered a whole chicken two extra sides and a pizza with drinks. Fed all of us for $120. My wife has a lot of allergies and this menu is well marked.
