the ambiance of the place is good and the staff are friendly. the food however was very horrible. went for the pasta special of the day. the salad that was brought was drowned in olive oil. i understand that it is an italian restaurant but it was a little too much. the pasta had so much oil in it, i was afraid of foreign invasion (iykwim)! the sauce had so much salt in it, i had to drink a whole jug of water that they gave me just to get the taste in my mouth neutralized.
