Great food! Took my wife here for her birthday. This is what an old school Italian Restaurant was back in the day. The food is incredibly fresh and delicious. We had the steak, shrimp scampi, and some tasty starters and desserts. The service was really prompt and friendly. It seems like people enjoy working there. We got a special treat where the owner and manager sung happy birthday in Italian to my wife. Very pleased with the experience. Looking forward to going back!

This was by far one of my best experiences dining. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the porterhouse and my boyfriend the tomahawk. Seasoned and cooked to perfection. The potatoes and asparagus were also very enjoyable. Had no room for dessert, but they looked very good. The ambiance of the restaurant was beautiful, charming and quaint. The service was friendly and accommodating. I’d give this place 10 stars if I could. Wonderful experience and will definitely return.

This is a nice place. Friendly, open kitchen design. The sauce was a bit sweet for our liking, but overall good food. I had the scallops & risotto and was very good. Everything was fresh and favorable. Drinks were well made and a very friendly atmosphere.

My dish came over seasoned, with pepper. Sent it back. The returned dish appeared to be the same pasta washed off and overcooked now with no favor.

I have mixed reviews. The Ceasar salad was the best salad I have ever had. They ran out of bread and had no sugar substitute like Splenda, Sweet and Low, etc… Had to return a drink because of that. Person in our party can’t use regular sugar. I thought it took a little longer than normal for our party order to be served. Had 6 people in our party, maybe that is why. Server had to be told a second time about bringing a drink to the table. Despite the bumps in the road, I would eat here again.

1st time. There was no wait and our waitress was very personable. We dined outside. The bread was soft and with a crunchy crust. Served with herb infused olive oil. I ordered spaghetti with meatballs (they offer small portions) followed with tiramisu. Overall an excellent experience.

No words can explain how AMAZING the food was, and the STAFF were astonishing welcoming and so FRIENDLY. I made a reservation for my parents and I, my parents were celebrating their 57th anniversary and I couldn’t have asked for a more delicious and terrific waiter and staff. They gave us a complimentary dessert of our choice. Would absolutely recommend to anybody who loves Italian food and wonderful people to be around.

I’ve lived in the North End of Boston and traveled quite a bit for work. I always try to seek out italian restaurants in new cities. This was by far, the best Italian meal I’ve ever had. The food was absolutely delicious and the wine was perfect as well. The ambiance and music made it a perfect experience. You cannot go wrong with a dinner here. The next time I’m back in Cumberland for work, you can bet I’ll be back.

I’m not kidding you when I say this is one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to. My wife and I got lucky finding this place as we were hiking in West Virginia and came through Cumberland on the way back. We were in the mood for Italian food and decided to come here. It was one of the best decisions we ever made. You can tell everything is made from scratch. Even the balsamic vinegar and oil that comes with the bread is absolutely fantastic. I’ve had two separate meals and they are just so filled with flavor. All of the staff are super hospitable and it makes you feel like you’re at your grandmothers table for dinner. We drove down two hours one day just to eat here for dinner. The owner gave us a complementary glass of wine just for driving down. This is a hidden gem in Cumberland and a must go.
