3.5 stars.
A reservation is highly recommended. My friend and I came without one and were lucky to be seated at the bar. The hostess and bartender were friendly and jovial. And overall, the restaurant is lively since the bar spans the entire depth of the dining room.
The gnocchi was perfectly cooked, but that was where the goodness ends. The sauce of any pasta dish is its life and soul. In this case, the gnocchi was a bit soulless. It was over-sauced with an all too sweet marinara. In addition, the chicken that I added to it was overcooked, dry, and flavorless. I know restaurants are afraid of salmonella, but that's no excuse for overcooked proteins.
