"at first, they don't come here unless they can comfortably handle lots of stairs. second, the signage is unclear, so they go down for the bar, but for the restaurant. the service we had was terrible and by someone who really shouldn't be a waiter. he thought red paprika would be squash; I'm not doing this. the ambiente is adorable, that I will give them, but there was also a bizarre singer. as far as eating is concerned, it was hard, but that was it. the pasta was cooked properly as well as the chicken, but nothing was spiced and overall the dish had no taste. I honestly never served Italian food without offering fresh parmesan. and the chicken piccata had almost no lemon taste with no fresh lemon on the side provided and no corpse?! that should be an Italian restaurant, but it is really just an American restaurant that pretends to be an Italian restaurant. if they can cope with a lot of stairs and not extreme as well as ineffective service, but enjoy bland food and lovely ambiente as this place is for them."
