Well, where do I start. Let me preface this by saying that the predecessor of this location was one of my favorite places of all time. It may make me a bit biased.
That being said, I wish the food was as good as the conversation. Don't get me wrong, it was not bad, it was just not memorable. In all fairness, I was treated to a sample of the desert, home made spumoni, which was delicious. The home made bread was good as well.
The disappointment lies in the entree. I ordered a classic, Chicken Parmigiana. Everything was cooked well, but the red sauce lacked body and depth. Seasoning was needed for my palate.
The ownership is so fun that I enjoyed a 20 minute conversation. That and the dessert brought me from 3 to 4 stars. The place is a bit new, and I love supporting local restaurants so I will try the food again. The menu is classic and I hear the seafood is great.
