"1st time here and I too wanted to give a 5 star rating. So quick background I am not a professional cook but I do pretty well for myself cooking over 30 years. I make a great seafood risotto, short ribs and other Italian dishes. We made reservations for 5:00 p.m. and were the only table in the restaurant so the disconnect on their end really in my opinion should not have happened. So rating the service alone with our waitress Josephine would easily get 5 stars. A great pleasure and excellent at her job. The pizza would easily get 5 stars excellent wood fired pizza if you like thin crust. I went for the short rib special and rissoto with garlic spinach. Those of you that have made risotto at home know from beginning to end is easily 25 to 30 minutes to make. I understand restaurants have shortcuts and they can do it in a fraction of that time as everything is par cooked. While my dinner came out without the risotto and in 2 minutes time the risotto showed up at the table piping hot right out of the microwave. Not the way to make or finish risotto. It was not done and was steaming hot due to the microwave of trying to get on my plate with dinner. The $35 short ribs special was extremely fatty and the portion was surprisingly small and not real hot. Needless to say I would give my dinner a one star rating. My wife had a pork chop that was a bit greasy."
