    Nice venue. Rude and arrogant service by I believe the manager. Place was empty yet wouldn’t let us choose where to sit. Food wasn’t nice. Asked to order cocktails at 9pm and they said no. Would never return

    High quality fresh pasta! Very quiet at 1pm on a Saturday - most sound was from the music they had playing. Would come back as it's a quality feed!

    I was really looking forward to going here. Food was just ok, for $420 for 3 (with some drinks) I was expecting better. Service was all over the place, i.e asked for a beer and server then didn't take order for it and had to wait 5 mins for someone else, potatoes were forgotten. Just overall eh, won't be back.
