What a great find! We were looking for a place to get a nice salad and found so much more… nice glass of wine, great food, great service, relaxing and romantic atmosphere with Frank Sanatra singing to us. Highly recommend for a lovely evening out for some terrific Italian food. To top it off, service with a sweet personality! Do give it a try.

Food and service are excellent, there were 8 of us and everyone enjoyed our dinner, drinks etc. The bartender makes great martinis. We all would definitely recommend this restaurant

Terrible disappointment! Don't waste your money. We went here because of the good reviews but either prior posters went to a different restaurant or there is huge inconsistency in food and service.
The food was average at best, nothing superb. Scallops and risotto lol just 3 small scallops! Risotto not good. Veal chop tasted ok, was overpriced, and was poor quality meat. Pallela did have all the expected components except for taste!
And just like other reviewers mentioned, the dining room lacked atmosphere and was freezing cold. Didn't the owner think to pay the gas bill? Or at least splurge for space heaters.
Also the server was useless as somebody already mentioned. Knew nothing about the menu. Could not recommend or describe anything. Forgot to bring an item we were charged for.
So in summary, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!! At least not now. If they are still in business in 6 months then maybe they got their act together and try then.
Go to AV or some of the many established restaurants in town that have a reputation for delivering a quality dining experience!

Loud cold cavernous warehouse like restaurant.
There were only four tables occupied last night and it was so loud I could barely hear myself think.
No foyer and it was cold and every time the front door opened you could feel the wind blow in.
Food is just adequate. The sauce on my chicken was like tomato water, very thin. The clams oreganato are good. Brusheta was unusual with a single slab of bread. Wine selection is very modest.
There is no good reason to go here.

Our family loved everything about the place. Lamb was cooked to perfection. Vodka sauce was amazing. Great ambiance and fantastic service. Great presentation of food too.
