Light bites and tasty beverages make this a wonderful place to stop in for a quick break from shopping 😉

No frills type of place. Good service, good food, but a little noisy and plain. Feels a bit like a school cafeteria and the constant beeping of the dumb waiter is maddening. Lol

Casual, comfortable, calamari...
Actually the calamari was the downfall. It's rare I'll ever dislike a calamari fritti, however on this day, it was crunchy, like eating a crispy wonton crunchy... Captain Crunch without milk crunchy...which would be a solid thing if the calamari pieces didn't seem to be the bottom of the barrel variety. Each bite left me wondering if I was actually eating calamari or just batter shaped like calamari...a rather peculiar feeling.
But, now onto the good stuff...
The ricotta with garlic bread was delicious and understandably a favorite, as were the ravioli fritti with side of red sauce. The creste with Sunday gravy was nice, but I've got an Italian wife who would give you a run for your money.
The meatball hero is the star of this dissertation. Just enough meatball, slabbed with mozzarella and sauce on a perfectly crispy bread. 🤌
Looking forward to coming back to try more.

Decent food. Good location. Terrible service.
Half of order showed up...one sandwich and one coffee, leaving one sandwich and another coffee unaccounted for, yet on the bill.
Bad experience considering there were only 6 people dining in the whole place.
