This restaurant is especially good for special occasions. We shared lattuga (lettuce), sardine, calamari, grilled Branzino, salmon, potatoes, and spinach. Along with a large bottle of Pellegrino and a glass of rose, the bill totaled $190. The restaurant is noisy so when making reservations, arrive early and ask for a table by the windows.

Family meal, kids menu ok, and they enjoyed it. Adult menu lots of choices, Chicken parm really nice, lasagna good, Alfredo fettuccine I ate one bite, it was underwhelming. Lobster bisque, so-so, lobster ravioli good, the baby asparagus, best bite of the night. Calamari, was very good first time I actually liked it, and both dipping sauces were really good, That all said it was just average. Service was very good, but the coloring on the table, not so good, teaching kids to right on things is just the opposite, of what we teach at home, we looked up and my point was made for me someone has already colored all over the wall behind us, and I could just see the kids going but we could color at the restaurant. Atmosphere was ok with the exception it was quite loud, a bit to loud for me.

We had Sunday night dinner here with five in our party. Pizza was what we wanted. We had two different ones, The Classic and The Old School. Both were deep dish and excellent. They also serve thin crust pizza, sandwiches, salads and have a full bar. Great service.

My husband and I ate here because Navarro was pouring their wines. The food was fine, actually really liked the Caesar salad with a peppery dressing.But, it seems that there was no thought or effort put into what the interior of the restaurant looks like. This restaurant has potential but needs a bit of soul.
