    I have been to this lovely restaurant twice. The setting is set up for casual or family dining. I have tried a few appetizers, such as the calamari, garlic knots, and oysters Rockefeller (not at one sitting, mind you), and they have all been excellent choices. In my opinion, the garlic knots are the best I have had in the area. I have tried their spaghetti and meatballs, but their pizza is amazing. They did have a buffet when I went for my third visit on a Sunday. That was pretty amazing. Pasta, pizza and salad. Incredible selection. Their desserts are great, too.

    I'm a huge fan of kitchen nightmares and have been wanting to go here for a long time. Finally came with my girlfriend and it's come very far since. The dining room, while not very busy, made it definitely feel romantic with the low lighting. We started with the prosciutto e mozzarella appetizer, everything tasted fresh and delicious. For our main courses, she got the rigatoni alla vodka and I got the ricotta cavatelli. That might be one of the best Italian dishes I've ever had and we both grew up in places with great Italian cooking. Needless to say, next time I'm in Brooklyn, I am coming back to eat again. Job well done!!

    I went here for the first time recently and it was great! Everyone in my group was very satisfied with their dish. Actually, I had the best vodka penne I've ever had. The location is amazing and it is very large inside and definitely good for big groups. I recommend!
