What a disappointment this place was - wow. Main complaint was pizza. Was served an INCREDIBLY cold Regina that was one of the worst pizza's I've ever had. Cold tomato soup with unmelted cheese on a sloppy crust. It was 80+ degrees inside the restaurant, and they were serving water with no ice, and no attempt to refill it. Beer was warmer than the pizza. Wife ordered garlic bread and pasta, which were pretty good. Saving grace - Mcdonalds was on the way home. Highly recommend MANY other Italian restaurants in the area.

Great food, great staff, the lighting is a little too bright, or else the ambience would be perfect. We also made a reservation because we heard the pizza was amazing, but when we sat, learned that it’s actually two separate restaurants. But we stayed and had pasta. The pistachio cream sauce with spaghetti was amazing!

Delicious and delightful. Separate from the main restaurant on the other side of the wall, but the same great, personal service and yummy food. Will definitely be trying a pizza to go next time I want pizza at home.

Second time we’ve been here, and it’s the second time they were out of something we wanted to order. Multiple items this time unfortunately, and at 6pm on a Saturday night. There were a couple other issues with the food we ordered as well, but being out of items that customers specifically come for early on a Saturday night shouldn’t happen. We really wanted to like this place, but there’s too many other good pizza places in town that are always on point.
