Well, where do I start? We haven’t been here in years but my wife wanted Pumpkin raviolis and this place had it and it wasn’t far so we went. When we ordered our dinner they didn’t have the pumpkin ravioli on there so my wife just said pumpkin ravioli. When it came out it was a full dinner of not only pumpkin ravioli but also crabmeat and shrimp which my wife is allergic to. We called over the waiter and told him that we didn’t know that was on there and my wife was allergic which he was very nice and said no problem we actually have an APPETIZER without the seafood, my wife said yea thats perfect. So it finally comes out with 4 medium size pumpkin ravioli. We said oh well, continued our dinner and then the check comes out. I see that the pumpkin ravioli was still on there with the seafood it’s $40. I call the waiter and say that the dinner with the seafood is on there, he said sorry and proceeded to go take it off. I turn around and the waiter pointed out our table to the manager and he started staring at me and saying something to the waiter, this is when I knew something wasn’t going well. The waiter finally comes back, I say does the manager have some kind of problem or something I seen he was saying something to you and I think that was very unprofessional that he was staring at me. He said yea he wasn’t happy that I asked him to adjust the check. I said we told you that we had no clue it came with seafood the first time, the waiter said I know believe me but he is just that way. I said I wasn’t paying $40 for 4 medium size ravioli appetizer. He gave me a new check and I paid for it. Now all of a sudden here comes the manager, I said is there a problem? Do you have a problem my wife had the appetizer 4 raviolis and we didn’t know etc. he says no it’s fine the cook just told me that he didn’t put the appetizer on that check. I’m like the cook didn’t tell you? What? (Does this guy think I’m from mars?) He’s like I gotta adjust it. He gives me a new check and voided the other one and acts like he did me a favor and is my friend and walks away real quick. I say to the waiter I just paid the other check and I won’t get that money back for a few days now. I’m so annoyed at this point I pay the new check and tell my wife let’s get outta here. I get in the car and we notice that the manager charged us $29 for the 4 medium size pumpkin ravioli. I said never again I will never eat at that restaurant again that manager did it for me. He acted like he wasn’t mad but he really was then stiffed me anyway. Absolutely so unprofessional management to say the least. Thanks to Pino for a horrible experience!!! Done ✔️

The food was horrendous and so was the atmosphere. Completely distasteful and on top of that the kitchen took forever! If it weren't for the young man who ran my food i would've left a far worse review. Only enjoyable moment was my wife and I's conversation with him. I was here two weeks ago and im still enraged at my experience.

Very disappointing. Let's start off with the drinks. We ordered lemon drops and a pineapple martini. They were horrible! Had to send the lemon drops back because they tasted like straight up lime juice. Someone ordered pasta fagioli which was reportedly bland and watery. I got the risotto which I thought was very good. The meatballs were not good, very mushy. Another couple ordered the limoncello cake which was a basic pound cake with horribly sweet lemon icing. The service staff was friendly and patient. No fault of theirs for what lacked in food quality. We will not be returning. Not worth the money spent.
