The atmosphere is slightly upscale (for the area) modern and clean. The staff is mostly younger, somewhat impatient and unfriendly. The bread is delicious, but wait staff seem bothered when you ask for more, or anything for that matter. Food is good, but portions are rather small for the price. We've eaten here several times and it's always the same. Not exactly what we consider authentic Italian, but it does the trick if you're in the neighborhood.
