After driving past this restaurant numerous times, we finally decided to try it out. It boasts fresh Italian cuisine at moderate prices. The atmosphere is nice and they have a large patio with landscaping that keeps it private from the road. We ordered bruschetta for an appetizer and I was a bit disappointed with the lack of flavor - I’ve definitely had better bruschetta elsewhere. However, I do have to say that our entrees were delicious! I ordered orecchiette (ear- shaped pasta) with sausage and it was cooked to perfection. I came close to finishing my whole plate, but left a few just so I didn’t feel guilty. Kevin ordered gnocchi with Italian bacon and eggplant. His meal had some incredible flavors that I’d never tasted in an Italian dish before. I wouldn’t hesitate to order his selection in the future. I give this restaurant credit for offering dishes outside the box. It’s not your ordinary Italian cuisine. I’ll admit, the first thing I look for when I go to an Italian eatery is baked ziti and I’m glad they didn’t have it because I truly enjoyed my entree. I would have liked to have seen cannolis on the dessert menu though!
