I wish someone would have warned us that there was construction going on basically inside the restaurant (that's how loud it was) because it would have saved us the $80 for a crappy lunch altogether. Not to mention, the hostess chose to seat us right behind a party of 15 in an almost otherwise empty restaurant so between this and the construction, we had to ask to move.
We went for the winterlicious menu which sounded good and affordable (app, entree and dessert for $28 each). The portions were just about the only thing good about it though as the food was off tasting and bland. The service was hesitant (our waiter seemed scared to talk to us) and slow but at least he was friendly... I couldn't even understand one of the waiters because his accent was so strong so I had to just nod and smile a few times. I will say that the tomato sauce was fresh and delicious though... it made me want to eat all of the free bread.
The regular menu seems rather expensive so I likely wouldn't take my chances and eat here again... nonna probably wouldn't approve anyway.
