This Italian Eatery & Bar is warm with a feel of being upscale. From the tables to the decor, it has a great vibe. Many regular customers are there, even on a Wednesday night.

If you don’t want a rude bartender then don’t go here. Jack at bar is the worst person to have serve you. He yells and makes condescending remarks. I do not recommend going here.

I’ve been going here for years. I love the bread and pesto, but they have several unique and tasty entrees. They get pretty busy on weekends, but relatively quiet during the week for a romantic dinner.

Another of my favorite Italian restaurants has gone downhill. Disappointed over negative changes of bread, entrees, tiramisu, etc. Fortunately MG restaurant has not changed. I will go there from now on.
