Nice place. Good Italian food, each with a little different twist. Professional staff. Overall a good night. Only negatives were that my wife thought her pasta dish could have used more herbs and spices. My veal dish could have been a little larger, even the veggies were a bit skimpy. It was delicious though.

We ate breakfast there for the first time. It was ok. Menu should include biscuits and gravy. While there I heard two other people ask for that. It was very very cold in there. I had short sleeves on and had to use my husbands and my own napkin to cover my arms. Went there for dinner and everything was good.

The food was average at best. My wife had a seafood platter and the sole tasted old, frozen, salty...no better than cheap cafeteria quality. I will never return to this restaurant, especially since it was pricey for the quality. The veal that I ordered was very good, but did not care for the sauce.
