    The appetizer and the Tiramasu were outstanding! Unfortunately, both of our entrees did not live up to expectations. I had the Shrimp Fra Diavlo. I was told it had a kick! It had zero kick, pasta and shrimp were excellent, but the sauce was bland and very disappointing. The fish special was also bland it neither dish was very hot. The place came highly recommended but it was a huge disappointment. I loved the atmosphere and the people, just not the entrees. I won't be back anytime soon or if at all.

    The service was exceptional all evening, with Kenneth being an outstanding server. We were seated in the back area, where the noise was manageable, but it seemed louder near the entrance. The food was good, though the prices were on the higher side. We'll definitely return and try one of their specialty dishes next time.

    A Girlfriends Luncheon today, the restaurant was freezing. We moved to a somewhat warmer spot. Food was good but not wonderful, not one of us said their meal was superior. Our waiter simply did not pay attention. I had to ask twice for a spoon for my soup. There's been a lot of buzz so my expectations were high that this would be someplace special. Lovely interior but an ice box, staff definitely needs to be more professional. I will be returning soon to join friends for dinner and I hope it's a lot better.

    Very Disappointed. Very noisy, food is mediocre for high prices. Uncozy with cheaply showing decor attempting to imitate art or Italy

    Excellent customer service. Brian our waiter was very attentive, friendly, courteous and there when the time was right. Eddie the manager, was very courteous and friendly and gave me his business card, incase we needed anything for future reservations. I’m hoping to introduce a group of friends to this new gem in Scottsdale.
