    Service was great, atmosphere was great, cheesy bread was delicious, but I was very disappointed in the chicken marsala. Also the prices are excellent, they have decent bottles of wine for $10.

    Got the Lobster special for September. The pasta had way too much heat. Lobster was cooked perfectly and precracked for easy eating. The antipasto appetizer is recommended here. Waitress was quiet.

    Garlic knots are delicious! Lunch combo is the way to go. Small salad with a choice of pasta or pizza. White chicken rustic pizza is a must have!

    They brought back some of the old menu - thank goodness. This place went downhill after the renovation and reopening. Now they need to bring back the garlic knots!

    Try the garlic bread knots and meatballs with polenta. Yum! Ignore some of the staff ... competent but not the most friendly! Prices are a bit high too, but the food is good.

    Try the brick chicken entree. It's seasonal entree special, and it's absolutely amazing!

    Removed basically all of the reasons to come here after the "renovation". Formally a destination restaurant it is now off my list.

    Go there Thursday night and ask for Tom - he is the best chef ever :)

    The addition of the $10.95 combo salad & half pasta is a deal. Plenty to eat.
