    Calling their “Italian salad” a salad is generous. What I got was a handful of limp lettuce and flavorless tomatoes — not a single olive in sight. The lasagna looked and tasted like something a 3-year-old might throw together: over-boiled pasta smothered in what tasted like Costco tomato sauce. The meatballs were real ground beef, sure, but serving them on top of lasagna? No Italian would ever do that. For $32 (including a $3+ “tip” for someone handing me iced water packed with plastic straws), I honestly felt scammed. Coming from the Mediterranean culture where food is crafted with pride, it’s sad to see people here calling this low-quality, Americanized dish “Italian.” No real Italian chef would put their name on it.

    Tastes like homemade Italian, fresh natural herbal sauce, fresh pasta, amazing bread! I had the beef ravioli with meatballs, these were a little small and crispy, but good. Salad was fresh, really good butter as well.

    This was my first time eating here, and although the menu selection is small compared to other places, the food is amazing. The service was also excellent and our server was very professional and personable.

    Not far from the capitol building is this charming Italian restaurant. The anti pasta salad was so good. Also the spaghetti and meatballs was delicious. The place needs to be a bit more updated in decor but overall a very friendly neighborhood place with good food. The marinara sauce was delicious.
