2017: Lunch service is really slow, expect to be there for 2 hours (not the best place for corporate lunch). The lunch deals is now 15-18 dollars. The carbonara pasta was awful – very chunky and dry.2015: Good lunch deals for $12 and very very filling. They have interesting pizzas. There’s one with a soft egg in the middle.
We were craving Italian so we made a reservation here. I had the gnocchi and my husband had the carbonara and both were very good though I’d say the gnocchi was better. The service was also excellent.
came here during one of the holidays and the food is definitely okay, nothing bad to write about and some were actually quite good as well, but again in this kind of places prices are definitely will be marked up as well due to the location and decor/ambiance, so then i definitely think it’s still a fair price in comparison to other places. although i must say the food are definitely okay, well made by the chef, but definitely something that i’ll crave and come back. mangkr.wordpress.com
Great underground nook, atmosphere was nice and quaint. The staff was respectful. Unfortunately, the food was mediocre, at roughly 20$ a plate, although I should say it didn’t feel overly greasy which was nice for the pastas they served. Great house red wine!
Came here today for the first time and the food was absolutely amazing and delicious. They had a deal going on and we decided to try it out. The interior design and service was great! Our Server John was amazing and made sure we gave him a good tip! I am just here for vacation, but I will definitely be coming back again!
I came here because I bought a groupon which allowed for two entrees, I ordered a seafood linguini and my boyfriend ordered the risotto. We were both kinda disappointed, even from the start with the complimentary bread. The food was overly salted and not up to par, I also had a fair bit of sand in my clams which is never fun. We ended up not even finishing our meal, the service however was great. Although the location and interior design, as well as the service is amazing I likely won’t be coming back.
The service was excellent. Peter the waiter did everything he could to offset the slow service from the kitchen and the substandard pasta. He brought it back and had them put some tomato on it like the description on the menu described. The pasta was overcooked and the fish and prawns were also over cooked. The pasta sauce didn’t have any garlic but seemed to have a sage spice taste… like you’d expect from a turkey dinner dressing. It was very disappointing and I will never return. If you’re looking for an authentic Italian dinner, go somewhere else.
