We came in early at 5 pm for dinner on a Sunday and told the waitress that we were going to catch a train at 6:30. The restaurant was nearly empty when we first got in, but then it quickly filled up while we still never got our food. The kids food came out after 30 min. For the adult entrees, we ended up just packing the food to go when it arrived so we could just leave right away. Our waitress probably had a bad day or was new, but she never communicated to us or even refilled our waters the entire time we were there. Hopefully this can be resolved with more training. Food was OK, but I would not seek it out again on my own. We came here mainly for my nephews, so good ratings for the kids menu.

Good place to grab a bite if youre in the mood for pasta. I would recommend the garlic rolls as a starter. I dont remember what my dish was called but it had kale, shitake mushrooms, and sundried tomatoes. I substituted the penne for angel hair and added some alfredo sauce (at a cost). It turned out nicely! One of my friends did not enjoy her linguine and clams/salmon because it tasted too fishy, but the waitress was quick to swap it out for a new dish.

Maden var Fin, men deres pizzaer er ikke noget specielt. Det er en smule kedeligt. En ting der er rart at vide inden man bestille både forret, hovedret og dessert, er at de serverer meget store portioner.

Good waitress, horrible management and kitchen service. Food took forever, appetizers were served last. We ordered salmon to be served on the side with a salad and it showed it mangled. Sentnit back and the manager told us thats the way they serve the dish, chopped! Definitely wont be visiting again, and wouldnt recommend this place to anyone.

Tomatina I heard the food is good, too bad Ive never had the chance to try it since they NEVER pick up their phone. Ive tried calling in to place an order on different occasions and they have never answered their phone. I am not going to walk there to place my order to go and then wait 20-30 minutes for my food! If I could Id give them zero stars.

Great place! Ive only gone for lunch so far but their 2 for $10.50 deal is a great value. Ive tried their pastas, salads, and pizzas so far and all have been very good. Nice atmosphere and very friendly service, highly recommended!

Nice mix of old and new style Italian. If you miss the garlic rolls you truly have missed. Their pizzas are very good, not the best Ive ever had but a great value to taste. Nice selection of beer and wine by the glass.

Nice Italian restaurant. They have a few good vegetarian options. However, as with most Italian places, there arent many vegetarian protein options. The pizzas are good.

The pizza here is incredible - fresh and simple and the dough makes it. Best pizza I have found on the peninsula. Bonus - the prices are way better than Amicis.

The food is so tasty and fresh! The prices are decent and the staff are awesome here. So helpful and accommodating. Great place to take a date or your family.

Nice places, prices good. If you only order a main dish, it will be kind of not enough, but with a started you will be good.

This Italian restaurant is a cut above the chains. It has good food, & the service can be less than good because of crowds.

The food here was really good. Except the workers come around the table once. Besides that everything was great!

Homemade food. Spaghetti and meatballs and minestrone soup.... With antipesto salad. Delicious!
