The Restaurant seemed old and rundown. The food was way overpriced. Did not enjoy my linquine and clams... it had a odd flavor and the very small clams in the shells were fishy tasting. Charged $17 for escargot...6 little escargot for that price was very unreasonably especially I order the same serving size at another local restaurant for half the price and much better flavor and presentation. I wont go back, nor would I recommend it to anyone.

Main course for both of us was bland and tasted strange and wasn't as expected. Neither of us ate much of the main courses. Calamari and cheesecake were both very good. Our waiter was slightly rude when we first arrived, wasn't helpful or informative and didn't check in with our table very often. We were left with empty glasses. He warmed up slightly as the meal went on. We went to celebrate our wedding anniversary and sadly we were both disappointed.

The service is so poor! Had to ask constantly for water, parm cheese bread, butter, etc. The only thing we didn't have to ask for was the check-that came quickly
