I love fresh pasta, and was excited to try this place! Our table had the "matrimonio" (giant meatballs and cheese ravioli), linguine cardinale (lobster), and the seafood linguine dish (clams, scallops, mussels, etc). We also had Caesar salads, drinks, and desserts. I'll start with the meh and get to the good stuff. The salad was ok, but not amazing. A bit heavy on the Caesar dressing. But a salad was helpful to balance out the rest of the meal. So, had I known how huge the portions would be, we would have ordered differently-- one pasta dish, one veggie side, one seafood/meat (or even just two entrees). The lobster dish was heavy with the sauce (creamy vodka), which I'm not a big fan of. The lobster was generously served and tender, but it was almost unappetizing for me to have such a giant plate of food. I realize that I've probably been primed by fancy places to associate good food with smaller portions, but I also felt so wasteful, especially being from out of town and not having an easy way to reheat leftovers. But I also feel like a lighter helping of sauce would help the pasta and lobster shine. If I ever returned, I'd ask them to box up half of it before bringing it to the table. The ravioli were a bit too Al dente, and the meatballs were perfect. The sauce for the seafood pasta was definitely lighter, but still a giant serving-- great for sharing!The decor (Easter), combined with crowded tables and noise was also a bit overwhelming for our party, but again, to each their own. Service was quite good overall. The folks were warm and checked on us the right amount. I LOVED the olive oil and herb dipping sauce for the bread, and the tiramisu and strawberry shortcake were excellent, though difficult to finish after the heavy meal. We all have different palates and sensory profiles, so again, some clearly adore this place, while for me it wasn't quite what I was hoping for. Italian and Italian American cuisine varies by region, etc, and I really enjoy a lighter style. I also recommend walking if you can-- it helps with working up an appetite and helping digest your meal!
