terrific service. a great waitstaff can make or break a restaurant experience. during my visit, chrystal was efficient and very friendly. food was good - linguine with their house tomato sauce was very flavourful, carbonara was less so. complimentary caesar salad and great garlic bread preceded our mains, a nice touch for an italian restaurant. desserts are an absolute must try here. banana tart is not actually a tart, but a delicious moist cake. tirimisu is also very, very good. order a side of coffee or espresso with them - why not for $.50??
house red is good, and affordable ($15.50 for 1/2 l)
