I enjoyed the rigatoni with eggplant, red marinara sauce was delicious and plentiful and the eggplant was done perfect! My husband enjoyed the NY strip special. It was tender and lean with chunks of bacon and gorgonzola on top - fries and arugala salad was fresh. Each time we celebrate an anniversary or date night, service, food and atmosphere has been great!

Delicious, authentic Italian - and we’ll be back again! For parents of picky eaters, be aware that there are limited options with no formal kid menu. Mine did just fine with a basket of bread and pasta with marinara. ❤️
