Wine Wednesday

Wine Wednesday

Select bottles are half off every Wednesday. Happy hour runs Monday through Thursday, 4 to 6, and the wine list covers all regions of Italy.

The best authentic, scratch-made Italian food around. The owners went out of their way to find us comfortable seating (we were initially in the sun) and were very sweet and fun to talk to. The food was wonderful -- freshly made pasta, rich flavors, and *heaps* of clam in my clam linguine. We will be returning soon!

We arrived and were greeted and seated in the wine room. The live music started shortly after our arrival providing a pleasant atmosphere. We shared the anti pasta appetizer, and then both ordered the Seafood Fradiovolo for our main, which includes clams, mussels, shrimp, scallops and calamari in a spice tomato sauce served over linguine. A salad and garlic bread was included. We enjoy a bottle of Pinot Noir with our meal. The food was delicious and service on point. Looking forward to…

What a pleasure to dine here. The ambience and decor were relaxing and beautiful. There is a full bar, the restaurant makes almost ALL of their own pasta onsite, the service was attentive and friendly. We really enjoyed the food - our group of 3 tried a meatball appetizer, cesar salads, and different entrees (eggplant parm, ravioli carbonara) and ALL were terrific. We will return!

The restaurant was clean as were the restrooms. The have a wine bar attached where they play nightly music and a small gift shop. We cannot…

We came here after receiving a gift card. The restaurant looks small when you walk in, but there are several large rooms. Live piano music was tasteful and subdued. Service was immediate and friendly. We each had wedding soup, and a seafood pasta entrée. The food was hot, fresh and delicious. I don't normally order pasta dishes, but I was quite impressed. The proprietor stopped by the table for a chat. The food isn't disappointingly pricey, and the portions were large. We took a pizza to go,…
