Tonight my experience here was NOT what it should have been, past visits have been good. I ordered the Butternut Squash Ravioli and what came out was ravioli filled with ricotta instead. I am Lactose intolerant and explained this to the waiter who promptly apologized and went back to the kitchen only to tell me they ran out of the squash and that the kitchen should have made him aware of this instead of knowingly replacing with ricotta and trying to serve it to me. FINE, I was asked what I would like instead so I ordered Penne a la vodka which was promptly made and served. It was no more than red cream - not a hint of Vodka, barely any tomato sauce . The waiter acknowledged this, as did the owner whom I explained, again, that I was lactose intolerant - they both understood, left my plate in front of me and quickly left, off to the kitchen? For a second I thought they were firing up a proper Penne a la Vodka, I waited, and waited... I mean what would you do as the owner?? WRONG, they did not, and as I suspected they left the plate of red creme and penne in front of me in hopes that I would just give in and eat it. Everyone else was finished eating and I was simply IGNORED. I did not complain, I did not make a fuss.....Maybe I should have.

Great evening in a pretty little restaurant. We had reservations for 4 and then noticed the review by foodiewino. So with a little trepidation we set out for our Christmas dinner. The atmosphere was intimate and very comfortable. The incredibly clean washrooms were a delight to see and we were made to feel very comfortable by the friendly staff. NOT passe at all! Then the food.. great Italian food. We all agreed that it was the best restaurant experience in years.

I'm very surprised at the great reviews that this restaurant has recently received. I found everything to be so passe here. The food was boring, the service was more so and the atmosphere was very lacking in ambience and character. Our experience wasn't bad, just simply adequate, when i spend money on dinner, i want more than adequate!
For sure we will go back.
We had a great time with awesome food.
The salad appetizers were a wonderful surprise. It had great favour with a real combination and variety of greens. The caesar salads were light and refreshing.
In regards to the main course we could have licked the plates they were so good. I think my husband did use his finger to get all the chocolate of the lava cake which came with a variety of exotic fruit.

Truly a very nice experience. The food was very very good. small and quaint. One of those places you can't wait to take someone special. We were there for a business get together. Bravo! Did foodiewino have too much wine to appreciate this great little place? 6 of us went again for our Christmas office dinner and could not help but love it all over again.
