    We got ignored quite often! Food was just mediocre! It took forever because the server really didn’t have any help!

    The hostess was less than welcoming to start with. I arrived earlier than the rest of the party & Initially she refused to seat me until the entire party was there which she said was the policy. The waitress made up for the hostess's unfriendliness. She was very kind and bubbly. 2 of us ordered the set 2 course meal the other 2 ordered off the regular menu. Additionally, someone ordered a cinnamon roll, which was a new special on the menu. The timing was off on the delivery of the food & that was odd. The cinnamon roll was like eating one of the canned cinnamon rolls. It didn't have much filling and was hard around the edges. It was Easter Sunday and the restaurant was busy. The manager was making his way to all the tables which was nice to see but I am unlikely to return

    The place was fun and I liked the pretty lights however I asked for a booth in the comments when making the reservation and I wasn’t put in a booth so I was kind of disappointed with this.

    Fantastic food, though the ambiance was very loud for a dinner crowd even at 5pm. The noise seemed more appropriate for a 7pm level than a family 5p dinner.

    We dined here last night, service was great, Emma was phenomenal. We had the grilled octopus appetizer & the burrstta! Both were delicious. We had the marghertia pizza (bufala) and the pesto pizza. The pesto pizza LACKED pesto sauce & was rather blah- none of us cared for it. Overall we had a great dinner & enjoyed ourselves! Thank you Emma for the great service!
