" Came here for a birthday celebration and was impressed! The ambiance was lively yet cozy, perfect for our group of friends. I had the calamari as an appetizer and it was delicious, not too greasy. For mains, I tried the lobster ravioli and it was divine! Highly recommend this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" Good food but the wait time was longer than I expected. The service was friendly but not very attentive. While I enjoyed my Chicken Marsala, my friend found their pizza too cheesy for her taste. Overall, still a decent experience. " (*Curated Review*)
