My fiancé and I loved this authentic Italian restaurant ! Travelled in from Staten Island NY. Here for her birthday weekend, staying nearby at Home2suites in Ridley Park. The service was amazing. We felt like we were in Italy ! As close to it as possible without being there ! My fiancé had the shrimp w linguini in a pesto sauce that was truly the best sauce ever. I had spaghetti Bolognese, the meat sauce was to die for. I’m 3rd generation Italian, all 4 of my grandparents were from southern Italy, my grandfather was born in Andria Bari. Let me tell you this was THE BEST ITALIAN FOOD I’ve ever had !! My pistachio ricotta desert was amazing! DECOR was cozy and warm. Waiters were super friendly, sang happy birthday for her Ciao Stephen and Arlene ! We will be back. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I wish l could give 10 stars!!! AUTHENTIC! The best around. The chicken parm tasted homemade, one of the best I’ve ever had! My Italian mother is usually a very harsh critic and she was super impressed, said it tasted just like her grandmom’s who was straight from Italy. The fried mozzarella was amazing, and we loved the salads. The meatballs were also incredible. Staff was super friendly and accommodating as well. The atmosphere is so cute inside and the outdoor seating looks great as well. Can’t wait to go back!

Best penne vodka ever — it comes with crab meat and it’s chef’s kiss. Fried mozz and calamari are fresh and perfectly breaded. Lobster ravioli is always superior — easily could eat two plates! And they had an arugula salad with goat cheese + lemon on it as a special. We’ve been at least 5 times and it’s fabulous every single time.

ATMOSPHERE Very quaint Italian restaurant. We sat inside, which was a little small, but it was a Tuesday night and not busy. We had a reservation for 4 which I'm guessing would be necessary on the weekend. Nicely decorated, quiet and romantic. They also had outdoor seating which was nicely lit and private. FOOD The food was awesome. I had the chicken (pollo) parm which was a very nice portion; tender without being dry and chewy. My wife had the salmon which was cooked perfectly, and also was a nice portion. Our table shared the arugula, pear, and goat cheese salad. Nice start; super fresh and just enough dressing to add flavor without drowning the salad itself. The calamari was very good, but generic. I'd order it again though. SERVICE Our server was very good, very patient, very present. My group was laughing, catching up and just having an outright good time. It took us probably a half hour to order just appetizers and we did not feel rushed at all. Plenty of time between appetizers and our main course. The wine flowed easily, which brings me to the one negative. It is BYOB and there is an $8 corkage fee. So, bring your own corkscrew. Knowing that, we brought fine twist-cap wine, hahaha, so did not need that service. But, I will be looking closer at the bill next time as another reviewer stated that they were charged $8 for having twist cap wine. Looking forward to coming again. Well worth the drive from New Jersey. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Chicken Parm
Everything about the place was great. The atmosphere, the staff, the food....it was outstanding. I felt like I was at my Italian friend's home. There were many people there who were regulars and they loved everything on the menu. I highly recommend this place. You definitely need reservations.

Lovely, authentic Italian atmosphere with Italian waiters in a room where you can actually talk and hear each other. The disappointment was the food. Our group ordered two shrimp risottos that didn’t taste good at all. The ravioli wasn’t the light, delectable pasta that I find in NYC or Italy. O wondered if it was even home made. Others at our table liked their dishes more but the general sense was the food was a disappointment. The waiters were so nice although they did keep moving our dinner along even though the restaurant was more than half empty. I couldn’t understand what the rush was.

Love this place. It's not cheap, but oh my it's worth it. Consistently makes the best steak I've ever had, no matter which cut I order it's always perfect. Charred on the outside, heaven on the inside! They always have very original specials too. My wife ordered a Flintstone-sized stuffed pork chop that was great!

Great small Italian BYOB restaurant. I’ve been twice as we stared going each year for Christmas Eve. Everything on the menus is delicious and great service. This last time I had the eggplant rollatini special but favorites at the table were the seafood special with lobster tail, shrimp, pappardelle in a blush sauce. Great for a small party or a romantic evening. Service Dine in
Though what I ordered was pretty decent. The staff were very nice and even the other patrons were sweet. Would check out their other dinners when I'm in the area Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
