    I took my son to what I thought would be a great Italian restaurant, but the food was subpar. I had to send back my pasta with sour broccoli rabe and swapped it for chicken Parm, which was no better than the local pizza place. I won’t return.

    Restaurant has a lot of potential but missed the mark in a few areas. The Good: The staff was very friendly and our waitress was extremely sweet. She checked in on us enough to be attentive but was never over-bearing. It is a very relaxed pace meal, you are not rushed and while I know some people mind a wait for apps or between courses we appreciated the breathing room as it was a kid-free night out for us, we just chatted and sipped our wine. As far as food everything appeared fresh and the sauces were very well done and well flavored. The veal cutlet topped with the burrata a fresh salad was wonderful certainly my favorite dish of the night. It’s BYOB which is convenient and the watermelon mocktail was delicious! The meatball appetizer was enjoyable. The Bad: This place was extremely quiet, I would say little to no atmosphere, by 9:15pm on a Friday in the middle of the summer we were the last people in the restaurant. Food: the spicy clams were very briney and if you had one that wasn’t well sauced it wasn’t very good. The gnocchi was gummy and over-sauced, again great flavors but not what I have come to expect from gnocchi. The red snapper special was a bit bland and just missing some excitement. The truffle fries were lack luster and needed more truffle flavor and Parmesan. Overall, we had a nice night out and our waitress was lovely. As I mentioned there’s a lot of potential here but as of now it’s looking like a one and done for us.
