    We were seated promptly and cordially. It was very noisy. The waitress seemed harried, but was pleasant enough. I wish she had told me there was salad on the plate when I asked how big it was. I could have done without the extra vegetable. I ordered grilled calamari and my friend had the fried. Both were tough and overcooked. I should have sent mine back but was too hungry by the time it arrived.

    Very warm, cozy restaurant. Service was excellent with lots of costumes for Halloween celebration. Restaurant was decorated. They were giving out candy for all the kids trick or treating. Very cute and friendly. Ambient environment.

    Great food and prices but hectic and loud. No consistency with your server throughout the whole meal. Wish it was a bit calmer and relaxing.

    Nothing to call home about ... Calamari was good which was enough for two to enjoy as an appetizer. Penne alla vodka was average. The shrimp stuffed with crabmeat (smelly bread crumbs) was gross!! I didn't eat it and it smelled like wet dog. The flies where annoying us ..having swat them away from our drinks and food while eating. I took a look above us and at the table next to us and there the flies where on the ceiling and the table. I told the waiter how the shrimp was gross and it was taken off the bill. I was offered something else but I just wanted to leave. I had enough.
