   Very nice looking restaurant. Employees were friendly and upbeat. The place was crowded so we felt like sardines in a can and the noise level was very loud. We waited 15 minutes for our salads and were told they were mistakenly given to the wrong table. My short rib lasagna arrived cold and the meat was stringy and tough. The overall taste wasn’t bad. The other two guests at my table said their meals were ok. A chicken parm and a lamb dish. Nothing special. Then it took forever to get the check.

   The food was served cold The waiter was very rude. He blamed me for not eating fast enough when I requested the veggies be heated up. He came back to the table after we were done & paid & complained in a loud voice about the amount of his tip; he also bad mouthed us to his fellow waiters ( they were pointing at us). I finally had to ask him to leave the table when he kept arguing about his tip They also have a food cart that didn’t fit their aisle meaning 6 times we had to scoot way in lest we get banged by the cart I asked for a nice table— we were next to a busing station… The prices were high for cold & Luke warm food— I speculate our waiter let it sit too long before bringing it to us. It also wasn’t very tasty The place was very noisy I believe on Purpose with horrible acoustics

   The restaurant is absolutely beautiful!! Very nicely decorated and loved the ambiance. It was a little noisy being near the kitchen, but loved the live piano music! The food was so delicious and portions were large, so you definitely get your money’s worth. Another fabulous restaurant by Chef Joey!! I had the Caesar Salad in the crouton bowl which was so flavorful!! Next I had the 15 layer Lasagna, OMG!! So good, the sauce and beef is wonderful and the pasta is thin and melts in your mouth! Finished with the Cannoli Cigars, great presentation and very delicious, and French Press Coffee!! I will definitely be back to try more decadent dishes!!

   Our third visit. Place was very busy, so maybe that's why our entrees arrived cool. Didn't waiterant to create a scene in front our guests, whose food was presumably fine. Chris, our waiter was fabulous.

   Food was fair at best. Spicy vodka sauce had zero flavor.

   This was our second visit. On this visit my wife was very happy with her fish dish. I was very unhappy with my veal parmigiana and the side of pasta.
