    Adolfo the waiter is great! I told him I was lactose intolerant and he informed the kitchen and everything came out dairy free!! I ordered a medium steak and it was MEDIUM! Not over or under! Perfect!

    Absolutely incredible. Took my whole family ( we are out of town) and is by far the best Italian food I have ever had. FANTASTIC service and a great experience overall I would deeply recommend.

    Free cheesy bread to start is yummy and free ice cream to finish the meal off. Ordered the vegetarian pizza and was amazed by how delicious the crust was. Great prices and friendly, fast service.

    One of the best Italian restaurants in Orange County. Excellent food and terrific service as well as portions big enough to satisfy the most enormous appetite. Love their pasta dishes!

    One of the best Italian restaurants I've ever ate at. Recommend it to anyone especially runners coming into town for the Disney races. Lots of options and delicious food.

    Try the Penne Chicken Arrabiata - Never had an arrabiata with olives and capers - kind of a cross with putenesca

    The expansive beer selection was enough to get us in the door, but the food was underwhelming. They were very busy, so I'll give them a pass, but they brought me the wrong dish and forgot our salads.

    The chicken Marsala's sauce was heavy on the red wine so some liked, I didn't. Only bad part was the 6 times they asked to box our stuff while we were actively eating.
