    Server was amazing and made the dinner. The pizza was crispy on the edges but soggy in the middle. If it would have been crispy all the way though it would have been on point. Thx

    We have eaten here in the past and loved it. White staff ambience all very nice. Said they changed the bread. Options to strange selection preferred the breadsticks they used to serve. My chicken piccata part was delicious, but the pasta was very salty. My son got the ravioli dish to have just raviolis swimming in this big bowl of soup leaving him hungry. Just want this restaurant to do well nothing terrible but just could use some improvement.

    Menu was very limited compared to the Houston and Galveston restaurants. Calamari was too chewy Pizza crust was not edible because crust was burnt to a crisp. It was late and not fond of returning food so we just ate the center. If we want Italian food we will probably just wait till we are back in Houston.
