I had never been here before, so I went in with an open mind. They had a sign on the door warning guests that they are low in staff; so be patient. I don't like to rush when dining, so I gave it a shot. I'm glad I did! Every bit of my meal was really good. They give you a large portion of garlic bread. The anti-pasta dish was fresh ingredients. The pasta with meat sauce was okay. It was a suggested dish, but I want to try just their tomato sauce, as I am a huge critic when it comes to that. The ambiance was low light, fireplace in the center of the restaurant, quiet and no crowded seating. This is truly a hidden gem! I'm going back.
Only thing I've had at this location has been pizza. My parents really like this place so I've had it 4-5x on various occasions when visiting. It's pretty good but a bit thin. I would compare it to a ma raffas style thin crust. I will have to go in sometime and try other stuff but that being said if my parents have been going there for 20+ years then it must be good.
The food and the service was amazing. We were just passing through on our way to another town and wanted to grab a bite to make the last hour of our trip a little easier. There wasn't too much of a wait. The staff was all friendly. The restaurant looks a little dated, but that adds to the charm. Definitely going to visit again if we get the chance.
