Our food was delicious. The mussles and Scallops Americana were fantastic. Our drinks were wonderful. I was disappointed that they didn’t have bread and were sold out of a beverage I wanted as well as some meals and dessert but that’s okay, it happens. Our server was excellent! She gave great recommendations and was very kind.

My husband & I were looking for a nice restaurant to eat at for our wedding anniversary. We had received a gift card for Colao’s & thought this was the perfect occasion to eat here. We were very happy with our experience. The food was delicious & we each brought home some leftovers. Our waitress, Maggie provided us with excellent service. We will definitely come back here again.

This place has an amazing menu. So much variety, dishes that sound spectacular! What do I get every time I go? The lobster ravioli. It’s the most savory delicious Italian dish I’ve ever had in my life. From the amazing cocktails to the decadent desserts, you can’t go wrong.

The flavors were simple and fresh, it is pricey but the waitress was lovely!

A classic family style Italian restaurant with a cozy dining area, friendly staff, and a small bar. The sauce is inoffensive, neither very sweet, spicy, or overly chunky. The chicken parm breast was pounded thin, well breaded, and complimented a baseball sized portion of spaghetti that was dressed in thin shavings of authentic parmesan cheese.

The food was divine!! Everything we had was fresh and you can tell it was made with love. The restaurant itself was very cozy and had a homey vibe. The service could’ve been better, but it was also sold out and hectic all evening for the staff. I had a very pleasant experience.

This is a nice small place hiding in the middle of the neighborhood. Excellent selection of food, drinks, and dessert. Relaxed atmosphere suited for any occasion. It’s a little expensive but the experience is well worth it. My wife and I had an awesome time and definitely recommend giving them a try.

I got the eggplant Parmesan, which is my specialty dish that I order in many restaurants. This is by far the best, eggplant Parmesan I’ve ever had. I also had an amazing pear martini. Everything was five-star from beginning to end. We had a very enjoyable evening. This restaurant is always on the top of my list. Can’t wait to return!

Overall, it was a half decent experience. The hostess judged us for being underdressed immediately. Portions were small but very good. Waitress was adequate. I won’t return, but not a terrible place to eat. Just make sure to at least dress business casual so you don’t get looks and bad vibes.
