Old fashioned, but very authentic Italian cuisine. Good flavors, quality ingredients, and even the tiramisu was light and wet, just like its supposed to. Decor a bit outdated, but matches the clientele.

The four of us all enjoyed our meal. The appetizers and entrees, including the fish, veal, salads and steak were well prepared. The service was efficient and the wine list has many wines under $100 a bottle.

Dreadful place. Absolutely terrible. The waiter who served us a tall nasty boorish man could not have been more rude & unpleasant. The wine was banal & overpriced. The food was atrocious & overpriced. The service was rushed & slapdash. The worst dining experience I have ever had anywhere. Be forewarned.
