Our service was great, but the food was subpar unfortunately. Small portions and mediocre food for the price of $20-25 per item; the pizza crust was doughy and kind of spongy. Gnocchi was overcooked and had no flavour. Chicken was gummy and very small portion for the price. Only thing that was good was the salad.

The New York style pizza was an exact souvenir of the pizza I had in New York. The aragula salad was delicious as well. The service was quick and professional.

The food quality has gone down tremendously and the service was lackluster. I will not go back. This used to be a real neighborhood gem. Not the case anymore.

Summerlicious was on when we booked and the menu did not disappoint - it was a great value for a 3-course + amuse bouche meal (generous portions, great flavors and shareable), and the environment is always lively even with it being a small space. Good for kids, too!

Overall excellent disappointing that they ran out of meat balls, since it was part of the summerlicious menu I would have expected that wouldn't happen and if it did they should have maybe added an alternate option, settled for the cheese balls but would have preferred the meat balls, everything was served hot and it was delicious.
