My grandmother loved this place so when I was looking for lasagna, my mom told me we should check it out.
I am a huge Italian food person and I will 100% be a repeat customer to the places I find fresh and good.
This place was ok. The service was good and their bread was warm which I appreciate. Was the pasta fresh? Mmm....given that I only buy fresh pasta and I make my own pasta as well...I can actually say that I'm not sure. It probably was because that's what the menu said but it was unfortunately too al dente to be able to tell for sure. The bolognese (sp) sauce was actually really good but I wish they had put more because it was more pasta than anything and it ended up being very dry after 4 bites since I kept trying to incorporate sauce with my lasagna.

The waitress was fine, but was penurious with the tea bags, asking my wife if she wanted more hot water, but didn't offer a second tea bag with the second water. The decor was nice, but you...
Read moreIncredible environment, very beautiful. Impeccable. The food is wonderful... I tried Linguini with Seafood. I asked for it without red onion, because, in my opinion, Alfredo sauce doesn't go well with onion, unless it's crunchy... However, my order came with onion. But I managed to get it out in time before the onion stole the Alfredo's essence. My experience was very pleasant in every way, even though the kitchen forgot to remove the onions. I recommend trying it with the crispy onion, I'm sure you'll love it. Very simple, quick and cheap to make this onion and it will give the dish a...
