Service was quick and polite. We were the only table at 4:30 on a Saturday so we had the restaurant to ourselves.

The food was delicious - they were very busy so it was hard to get the servers’ attention but food came out promptly. It was rather noisy so it was hard to have a conversation and it’s a BYOB- that’s always a disappointment but we found the restaurant at the last minute so we were unprepared. A 12 year old granddaughter gave the pepperoni pizza a big thumbs up. The chicken Parmesan was superb and my husband loved the Vodka Penne. Delicious salad dressings on the mixed greens and Caesar salads. We’re all fussy eaters so I don’t often give such high praise. And it was very reasonably priced. A great value and amazing food- We will go back!

Not sure how this is listed as an Italian restaurant. The pizza was nothing to get excited about, mushrooms were wet and out of a can, to 🤔 think Kennett Square is down the road and Pizza had no sauce. Won’t be going back. Seemed people go there due to it being a BYOB.

Food was just ok. Service was slow. We had a reservation but there seemed to be no tracking of reservations, I told them we had a reservation but they never asked for a name. Don't think we'll be going back
