Went for dinner with great expectations...sadly disappointed. Arrived around 6:30 with party of three, already planned what wine and dinner I was ordering. Awkward wait at door to be seated. Once seated, given menus with no briefing on specials. Left to wait, no water or drink order. Restaurant was not full, three staff behind bar talking, owner or manager was in the dinning room speaking to guests. Caught the eye of the wait staff, but not interested enough to come to the table yet. Waited for close to fifteen minutes, got up and left. Got the attention of everyone in the restaurant when we left (including the table the owner/manager was talking to, but unfortunately not the owner/manager.) Was told the food was good, but unfortunately with service that bad, I'll never know. Amateurs at best, gong show for sure.

Not all bad, had a great dinner at Leslie Jones, just down the street where the food and service is always awesome!

I was oh so hoping this place would be a hit. Especially since i live down the street.The service wasn't bad but the wait staff could use some training. We ordered a mix of things to share. The pizza was uneventful with mediocre crust (I'd rather a lil bacci or libretto pizza). They obviously dont have a woodburning stove. The pasta was much better but not served al dente as requested.
This place has potential but its not there yet. Next time I'd rather grab a burger from their neighbouring burger joint (same owners)
