I live fairly close to this restaurant & have heard good reviews in the past, especially the steaks for an Italian establishment so my wife and I decided to try it. The ribeye was cooked to order but the portion size is way too large to consume in one seating, which in turn means a larger bill. They need to... More

We were there last Saturday and it was so slow it ruined anything good about the food. There was some kind of mix up with who was to wait on us so our appetizer took 25 minutes to get out. We literally sat there with nothing not even bread for 25 minutes after ordering it. It was just ok. Then,... More

The ambiance is contemporary and warm, but the food disappoints. The lettuce in the Ceasar salad was old and discolored, and the cheese on top was not fresh grated. The baked lasagna and chicken parm also were underwhelming. Shrimp scampi was very good. The Angel Food Cake dessert was almost frozen solid.

I was staying about fifteen minutes away and was in the mood for Italian. I turned to Yelp for help in finding a place and saw generally positive comments about this restaurant. The parking lot was full but the restaurant was not... seemed to be several parties there for holiday dinners, etc. The food was good for sure, but not... More

I visited this restaurant after many years of living in this area. It was previously in an old house @ the same location. I had so wanted it to be great. A friend was visiting from out of town, & I wanted to choose a local, non-chain restaurant for dinner. Perhaps this place was much more attractive inside before they... More

July 22 - Witnessed the proprietor verbally attack a nearby table and threaten physical violence. I'm not sure what the original dispute was over but the patrons affirmed numerous times that they would cover the bill, they stayed seated and kept their voices at a reasonable level. I couldn't hear most of what they said. But the owner stomped around... More

this is a very nice spot for a date night night with wifey or to impress a new lady. It is smaller and less noisy than Olive Garden or other chains but at least as good. The prices are very comparible. I can definately recomment the filet!

I am visiting on business and was taken here by my business partners. Oh my goodness. The food was absolutely unbelieveable. First, the portobello mushroom appetizer and also the italian sausage were fantastic. Then the entree, the 12oz Filet and side of pasta, wow. Perfectly cooked, incredible flavor and so tender and juicy. Then the dessert (how there was room... More

My daughter and I ate here after a shopping trip to Indy. We started with foccacia bread that was great with or salads. I had the wedge with balsamic vinaigrette.. Then the shrimp con Alfredo. Both were wonderful. I would definitely come back even at the price..
