I had these on different days because my niece loves coming here and we try different dishes. As you can see from the pictures, they have really large servings, enough for two to three people in one order! Prices are reasonable and the service is great. I recommend everyone to try their chicken or veal parm

Old School Italian food just the way it should be. Nathan was absolutely excellent. Food was terrific and large portions allowed a lot to take home. This place is a true gem. Nothing fancy. Just great food, service, and a fun atmosphere. Loved it. Will return again and again.

I was so sad that they dont have pesto on the menu. How can you not have pesto? I had to settle for something else, which was not half bad. The portions are huge!

First time there, sauce was delicious, meatballs were great, and the chicken parm was cooked perfect. Only issue I had was the clams casino. Came out a little burnt and had an off smell, not due to the food being spoiled. One of the best Italian Restaurants in the area!

This is my Favorite place and since i moved away i have not been in for 7 yrs made it a must brought in some friends as well i was used to all the family working at the bar and kitchen but service was outstanding we were able to reserve a table. Welcome she said we have your table ready we sat bread and water were immediately sat on the table and the makeover is absolutely beautiful inside it’s the roots of the family and the way we were all brought up in the Italian manner. Honestly, it’s like having dinner at my grandmothers house that I miss so dearly and my family as well I had the chicken scallopini that was unbelievable we had broccoli robbie as an appetizer, fried Italian peppers and a family style salad. It was just absolutely awesome from the start to finish and nothing was a problem you asked for something it was right there honestly, if I could leave 10 stars, I would this will always be my go to place it’s the capital District hidden secret. There’s a lot of Italian restaurants out there. Well I must say they’re garbage come get a real meal that is just like sitting in Italy would be like to the family. It was great to see you again and I will keep coming back when I’m in the area , God bless and it’s great to see you’re still carrying on the tradition. Loved every minute of it. The portions were so great. I had it for dinner the next night as us, Italians no sauce always taste even better the next day. Thank you for a great night.

We had a party of 4. We were seated where there was a 4×4, probably part of a retaining wall. I had no room. Our waitress messed up the drink order and part of our food order. The food was ok. Average. Nothing special. Overall experience was disappointing. I was uncomfortable, because of the seating, the whole time.

WORST ITALIAN FOOD IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE.. clams were closed shut (sick), bread cold, garlic chopped into huge cubes so food only tasted of garlic & almost inedible.. The staff was very rude and i’m not sure if they literally went out of their way to make my meal awful because I commented on a framed photo of hillary clinton? Weirdest & worst restaurant experience of my life
