I've heard of this place but was a bit reluctant to go to a bar for Italian food. So one night my wife and I decided, okay lets try it. Well, what a surprise. You can eat in the bar or a very nicely decorated restaurant. We chose the restaurant to not be in a smoking area. Our server, don't remember his name but, he is the son of the owner and was very polite and very helpful and informative, telling us that the sauce is made fresh every day and much more. So anyway, had appetizers, eggplant and the mozzarella cheese sticks. Both were very good. Also order the Wedge salad and it was amazing with large chucks of blue cheese and a fair amount of bacon. large enough to share for sure.
My wife ordered the Cavatelli Di Casa and I had the lasagna. My wife's dish was delish, the sauce, meatballs and pasta dumplings were crazy good. My lasagna was okay, noting earth shattering. It was obvisously made hours before and only mildly warm on the inside and some very hard but not burnt pasta on the bottom. I also had their house cabernet and it was decent. It is definitely worth another visit but next time I'm going with something they have to cook fresh like my wife's dish. Oh, happy hour is great too. Give it a try, I think you'll be surprised. Ciao
