We have been waiting for this place to open so we could try it out. The experience was everything we could have hoped for. The food was excellent with generous helpings. The service was attentive and the folks in general were great. It was a pleasant meal. We will be going back. Hope to see all our friends there as well. Its great to have a place like this in Fulton.

It is nice to have something different to eat in this small town without having to drive to Columbia or Jeff City. The first two times we went were really good and it was nice that they were not afraid to use garlic. The food was good and the service was excellent. I got the linguine to Tuttomare. The salads need a bit of work and the bread needs and olive oil Dipper. The third time we ordered a supreme pizza and a cheese pizza. I would not recommend the pizza. Both pizzas the crust was limp and Soggy. I also got the fried calamari and it was basically breaded calamari that had no seasoning in the batter and it was terrible. No flavor at all.

The chicken in my pasta was pretty bland and all of the food was suspiciously hot and suspiciously fast. Like maybe they are using the microwave. They desperately need some sort of music going as it is simply too quiet. You have to whisper to the person that you are eating with to not disturb others. Our wine was hot, not room temperature, but hot and tasted terrible. However the bread was pretty good and the sauce in my dish was good. And service was pretty great. I’ll see if it is still open in a few months and then maybe we’ll try again.

One star because it’s required. Terrible service, terrible food. Waited five minutes or more before anyone even realized we were there, worker was outside smoking. Waitress played music off her phone so anytime she texted (which was the whole time) or walked out of the main seating area the phone skipped and was super annoying to listen to. The pasta was TERRIBLE. Chicken old and inedible, sauce had no flavor. Calamari super chewy and nasty. Didn’t even eat half our meal and didn’t take any leftovers. A waste of $50.

If I could give a half star I would. Appears to be going out of business – they didn’t have a bottle of wine we ordered, no tea and were supposedly out of other ingredients. Don’t take credit cards and olive oil tasted like it was mixed with cheap canola oil. 1 car in parking lot at 6 PM on a Saturday night (should have been a clue). First dish (veal) was disgusting – sent it back and ordered a pasta dish. Was marginal at best and had typical “store ingredients.” Olives and bulk ham disks – if a high school home economics class was doing a block on Italian cooking, this would be close. Service was marginal as well – more interested in working on her phone and pretty sad attitude. Do yourself a favor and make the extra 1.5 hour drive to the Hill in St Louis.

This is a laid back and affordable Restraunt with five star cuisine. I had the Chicken Albanese and it was cooked to perfection. Everything from the vegetables to the breast. Also service was prompt, polite, and right down to business. The only thing I would say they could improve on is to get a credit card machine. It is cash only as of now.

I’ll start with the food was great as was the service. The only reason I didn’t give 4 stars is due to paying the bill. Bring checks or cash, they don’t take credit or debit cards… There is an ATM in the restaurant that charges you $2.75 for use. Seems odd to me that they an get an ATM installed, but not a credit/debit card machine? Perhaps they just want to do business in cash /checks only, but the rest of the world is moving away from that. Either way we will go back, and bring cash.

The main entre was very good! The salad needs a lot of improvements. It was very wet ice burg lettuce. The bread needs a dipping oil with seasonings. The booth seats were very uncomfortable. I will try it again and hope they make an improvement with their salads!

I ate there the first time the week they opened. It was a little shaky. I’ve been back since then and it’s much better period more consistent. They use a bit too much cheese for me, and the pasta seems to be a bit overcooked. But again that could just be my preference. Give it a try

If I were to only rate the food and our server Alex I would give a 5 star rating. Unfortunately I had the misfortune of over hearing the bashing of an employee by the name of Taylor by a red or auburn colored hair in a ponytail waitress.
