Thanks to Groupon we found this place. Tucked away in Gainey Ranch, there's no way we'd have found this otherwise. After browsing the menu, we decided to order:

I love Caprese Salad and they do it well here. It's a hearty serving, so be sure to share otherwise you could be blowing your appetite with this appetizer alone. The Pasta dishes were very good, but I thought there was too much Sauce and it overwhelmed the dish. As you can see in the photos, it was pretty Sauce-y. Good flavor though. The Meatballs were excellent.
Average price for a glass of Wine @ $10 per for Chianti.
The service was so/so. Our waiter wasn't very attentive....had to flag him down for refills on Wine & Water. He was nice though.
