Uodate #2: we went again and again this place is amazing, get the BEAST pizza it’s not on the menu but it’s amazing!!!! The veal piccata was amazing! Tender and lemony! Ask for Keith he is a great server!! Update: We went again and once again, everything was amazing. Took my mom this time. She had the eggplant lasagna and was in awe of how good it was, the fettuccini Alfredo was rich and flavorful. Of course I went with my standby penne alla vodka, can’t find one as good as this one. Also had the Gorgonzola chicken, creamy garlicky goodness…..🤩🤩 Added a couple new pictures too, a must try!! Original review below———- This place is so good, we went for a birthday celebration, we ordered the bruchette to start, was ok but was missing flavor, needed more garlic. That’s the only reason I didn’t give them 5 stars. The rest of the food was amazing. For dinner we had the mahi mahi special with a Gorgonzola sauce, absolutely amazing!! The penne alla vodka was the best penne alla vodka I have ever had, great flavor and creamy!! The calzone is staple of must haves!!! And finally we also had the sicilian pizza deep dish, the flavor was great just needed some more sauce. If you never tried this place it’s...

One star is for staff, which is super nice. Idk, I’m feeling cute, so the other star is for soup I had, which was really good.

The menu is huge. There’s no way the kitchen would realistically have enough time and quality ingredients sitting around to make everything on that menu.

The skillet the food came in was hotter than the food inside it. The food itself was uneven in temperature (the biggest “I used to be frozen” sign). The ricotta in stuffed shells I ordered was grainy. The red sauce was unusually watery and outnumbered the shells in quantity. Since I’m not familiar with Italian food, but have made a similar recipe at home before, I knew what it was supposed to taste like (which is why I ordered it). What I got was not what it was supposed to taste like.

Also, I’d always rather a place with a small menu and quality food than a large menu with a buttload of okay food. I wouldn’t have even posted this if that particular meal wasn’t $11+ for what I got. Also, please, dear god, if it takes 1+ hour to get the food out, then don’t add extra torture by playing loud opera music (saying this as a musician that played in symphonic bands and sang in an operatic...
