I never ever write reviews. Food was fantastic and I love the Thursday deal for kids. Beyond this food though I need to highlight a particular staff member. I have never dined with my 13 month old alone before. It was a hassle and I was filled with anxiety and scared. But my server Ruby made the ambiance and everything perfect. She was attentive to the needs of a father trying to feed his baby, offered all the right things and checked in frequently. Whoever manages this place, please thank Ruby as best you can for me. I cannot express enough how much she helped me

LARGE PARTY REVIEW: We recently hosted a birthday party here for a group of about 26. We had the patio all to ourselves. The tables were nicely set up with simple flowers. The patio is covered, and there are heaters overhead. My sister worked with their manager to pre-select the menu ahead of time. She indicated that the communication was a little slow, but eventually everything was settled. The food was set up on trays and served buffet style. Everything was very good, especially their pizzas. They even let us bring our own birthday cake, and they cut and served it for us on their own plates. I thought that was a really nice touch. Their service was wonderful throughout the evening. When the little ones got restless, the manager came out with color chalk so they could draw on the walkway behind the patio. She said they will hose off the walkway afterwards. Our reservations was only for 2 hours, but we probably stayed an extra half hour, and they never rushed us out. The patio leads to an alleyway where there's a brick wall covered with vines. The staff offered to take a picture of our group against that wall, and it turned out great. I can't say enough about their service. This is a great neighborhood spot for some casual Italian food or for a special occasion.

Not sure why this place has such low reviews? We used to be regulars here when my daughter attended school out here. Quality/Quantity - Simple menu done well. Known for their Piadine, my regular item. Also my go-to item when I want/need to eat healthy, basically a salad wrapped in pizza bread. Subway is my other go to place for healthy eating, a "sandwich salad..." Too bad they closed the one on Park Street. Cut and pasted from their website: "Piadine - A fresh, hot flatbread topped with crisp salad, ready to fold and eat." Also known for their pizzas; they have two pizza ovens, see picture. Not sure how long they have had these lunch specials...? We used to only come for dinner. It is a good deal, pick two items for $13. I also like their daily specials, see pictures. Might have to come back on Mondays for those $3 beers. Full bar also available, sorry forgot to take a picture. Today I was good and got the following - Mediterranean Salad & Turkey Piadine. My usual go-to would have been the steak Piadine, but that was not an option for this lunch special. My guest got the Mediterranean Salad & Pasta and Sauce. She finished her entire lunch and I took half my Piadine home. Yes, I am a light eater. Atmosphere - Good size location. Both indoor and outdoor dining. Since the pandemic, additional outdoor seating in front of the restaurant. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm or 10pm; see picture or website, Yelp hours differ slightly. Open kitchen. Street parking, current extensive construction with restricted parking, good luck. I parked 4, yes FOUR, blocks away. Good thing I enjoy walking. Service - Christina was good. She checked up on us twice. We were almost the only customers and never felt rushed. 1.5 hour lunch as it was very good to catch up with a friend. Loyalty program. Price - $33 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1997 with your 8 locations.

For a delivery order, I am pleasantly impressed. I ordered through DoorDash a few nights ago and received the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and four garlic rolls. Basically, I enabled the garlic rolls. They were so fragrant and with the oil and parsley (?) included in the box with the rolls it was a perk that they weren't soggy. I didn't even need the marinara sauce I ordered on the side. It was the perfect amount of oil and minced garlic bits to rub the bread around in the box. C'mon, I ordered takeout so I don't have to do dishes. This was a treat. The Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo was also superb. Sure, it may be easy to make and hard to screw up, but the amount of sauce was perfect. The flavor was evident and I had a full belly when I was done. This place met my cravings right where they were at - Italian.
