    I had the grouper salad with balsamic vinaigrette which was very good. The husband had the sausage & meatball manicotti which he really enjoyed. The portions are generous and the service was great. It is out of our way for everyday dining but we will definitely be making it a priority to revisit regularly.

    Great food, great service, what more could you ask for? They had a triggerfish special tonight, was amazing. My waitress was a great lady, she ended up paying for my dinner tonight. I greatly appreciate it. The limoncello cake was great too. Second birthday I've been to this spot, try it if you have not been.

    First time here. The atmosphere was old Italian. The food was good. The garlic bread was rather bland. It did not bother us too much, but there was a slow drip of water coming from the ceiling.

    First time with the family and did not disappoint! Had to wait to be seated on a Monday which did not expect but that shows a good sign that it'd be worth it, and it was! Our waitress was sweet and very attentive. The menu offers a large variety, huge portions, and great food for the price! Perfect mom and pop restaurant. Will definitely be back!

    This was my first time and it was amazing. My cousins and I went at 6 pm and had about a 20 minute wait. When sat, our server greeted us, got our drinks, and gave time for us to look at the menu. Prices were on the 15.99 - 20.99 side however the amount of food you get is worth it. Salad is a decent size.Most entrees come with the choice of soup or salad and garlic bread. My cousins got the chicken Parmesan and they did not skip out on the pasta! I got the meat ravioli and was very pleased. Note for my frequent runners they have a one person bathroom.

    What a nice and cozy Italian restaurant! It was a very pleasant atmosphere and the service was very good. Prices were fairly reasonable considering the times we are in. Better yet, the portion sizes are excellent! Plenty of leftovers for later! Be sure to check the specials as well. I would certainly recommend giving this place a try!

    We went for the first time tonight, a little skeptical because of how mixed the reviews are, and we thought it was exceptional! Our waitress Keri was super kind and thoughtful. The food was absolutely delicious. We got fried raviolis as an appetizer and they were great, hot and fresh. The marinara sauce is also really good. I got the Sicilian Shrimp and Sausage Pasta: it was amazing. They actually clean the shrimp correctly, no vein! And it was gorgeously butterflied and seasoned. My husband got a Meatball and Spinach Calzone and it was super good! The meatball seasoning tastes amazing. The only negative thing is the Garlic Bread is nothing special. It’s just toasted bread with some butter. But other than that it was very authentic! We will definitely be back!
