From the second you walk in you are welcome with an awesome owner who’s funny and charismatic. The food was fantastic. The Veal Marsala was next level and the spaghetti was perfect. Everything was delicious. Definitely found our new goto spot

Food flavor was great, but the noodles in the lasagna was a little over cooked. Luther than that everything was great.

I had veal Marsala. The sauce was creamier than I expected, veal tender and good. My wife had the risotto with lemon cream sauce which she said was good but could have used more lemon. Service was great.

We went there because of their veal dish, which was excellent. My chicken was also very tender, and our zucchini & spaghetti were delicious, too.
