    02/05/2026. Dinner, 2 people sat at bar. Very nice warm staff. Bartender was new so she didn't know much about the menu. Apps: Calamari piccante was very good. Nice size portion. Definitely sharable. Mamma's meatballs & burrata was excellent. Meatballs were very tasty and the fresh cheese was a great combo. Also very sharable. We were almost full so our plan of sharing a main dish was not happening. We ordered a 12 inch pizzette. It's really a thin delicious crust flatbread that's round. We got the pizza Vespa. Clams, bacon, fresh mozzarella, provolone, spinach & garlic cream sauce. As full as we were this was amazing. Reasonable prices. Definitely will return soon.

    Service was great, waitress very sweet and attentive. Food was not good. Meatballs tasted like school cafeteria meatballs. The baked clams were very bad as well. We sat in an indoor tented area and my toes are still frozen. Also took about two hours to receive our food. Very beautiful resturant but not impressed at all with the food.

    Extremely disappointed in my first experience at this restaurant. My sister chose this location as a surprise birthday dinner for me who has extreme allergies and recently diagnosed celiac- as they’re extremely accommodating to gluten free diets. Upon entry- we were treated like an inconvenience. We approached the hostess and said we were here for our reservation, where we were made to feel crazy. The response to us trying to get our reserved table- that they called to confirm & texted us about 3 times, we were told “we don’t even take reservations.” Following that, we asked if we could preserve the cake we brought in their refrigerator, seeing as I cannot eat any of the desserts because of my allergies. Their response was “we can’t take that without a receipt- haven’t you ever worked in a restaurant?” We actually all in fact DO work in restaurants and have never once requested a receipt to hold a birthday cake? Moving onto food- the gluten free calamari is just boiled? No sort of breading? Aside from that- our meals were great and our server Julio was awesome. Unfortunately, not sure if the treatment is worth going back.

    Truly one of the best experiences I’ve had at a restaurant in a long time. From the service to the food, everything was an absolute 10/10. Our server, Eva, was a sweetheart & gave awesome recommendations. The ambiance was perfect for a Saturday night. Will absolutely positively be returning ASAP.
