"If you’re a foodie don’t go here! My first experience was that they accidentally cancelled my open table reservation so I had to call and make it over again. the restaurant had no idea why the reservation was cancelled. I pick this restaurant from the reviews and menu that I saw on the app. many items they show on the open table menu they don’t even carry so no eggplant no lobster no octopus among others. When we sat down we ordered the meatball appetizer. They were out of meatballs they were also out of mussels and get this the restaurant is known for their brick oven pizza and they were OUT OF PIZZA! What?!!! How is a restaurant out of over 20% of their appetizers and one whole side of their menu. I wish I had taken the direction the universe was trying to tell me and left but I was still in the hopes for a nice Italian dinner. I’d like to tell you it got better but it didn’t. Food is no better then eatery food in the mall you’d be better off going to SBARROS or Pizza Hut. We asked a local waitress the night before about this restaurant and she told us it was a glorified pizza joint. She was right and we couldn’t even get pizza or anything that intrigued us on the menu. Don’t make our mistake pick another restaurant. Open Table hold the restaurant accountable for inaccurate menu and I honestly think they cancelled our reservation so we couldn’t leave a review since half their menu they were out of. Seriously you run out of pizza dough and meatballs?"

"Tried this restaurant after receiving a suggestion and was not disappointed. The menu was very diverse, our server was extremely attentive and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere was intimate and perfect for a date-night. The music selection was also great and was played at a volume that was not overwhelming. The Honey Jerk wing appetizer was flavorful; however I found the fried crab cake appetizer to be average, at best, and I would not order it again (the spicy dipping sauce that accompanied it was unique). The surf and turf entree, consisting of a generous cut of filet mignon and lobster tail was very well seasoned and cooked to perfection. The southern fried chicken entree, consisting of a sizeable piece of chicken, collard greens and mac cheese was delicious as well. The cornbread tasted as if it was infused with banana bread, which I thought was a very unique and ambitious take on the dish. I enjoyed it (very much), but my date indicated that she would have preferred a more traditional version. Overall, the food met my expectations and more, and I will definitely return in the near future, likely for their brunch experience. The only thing preventing a 5-star review was the fact that they do not accept Apple Pay and the on-site parking is very limited and confined to a space behind the building no larger than an alley, making exiting a bit of a chore. They do offer off-site parking at the business across the street. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"
