"The food at the restaurant was delicious, but the portion sizes were not very large. We received only ten medium-sized tortellini with our order, and the octopus dinner special felt more like a generous appetizer. However, the dinner salads were a good value and everything tasted great. The service was just okay, as the waitress seemed distracted due to the busyness of the restaurant. The noise level was also very high, making it difficult to have a conversation. Even though we were seated in the back of the restaurant, the live music made it hard to hear each other."

The restaurant had a nice outdoor dining atmosphere. The food was delicious, but the service was a bit slow. Despite that, I would definitely go back.

Our favorite Evanston restaurant. Food is consistently outstanding. Pasta dishes creative and perfectly al dente. Meat and fish rotate often enough that there is always something that feels new to order.

whether the pizza, the steak or the pasta, everything was very, very salty. the service was dirty, with great difficulty getting the leak. outdoor atmosphere was beautiful, not sure they needed the lounge singer, which made it easy to hear conversation. View menu

The food at this restaurant, whether it was the pizza, steak, or pasta, was extremely salty. The service was inconsistent, and we had a hard time getting the check. The outdoor atmosphere was pleasant, but the unnecessary lounge singer made it hard to have a conversation.

I'm not sure what was happening last night, but the restaurant was completely out of popular dishes like lasagna, penne, and tiramisu. There were hardly any customers, and the service was really strange (we had a reservation for four but were seated at a table for two, etc). At one point, someone brought out raw seafood on a slimy plate to show us for a "future menu" while we were eating dessert (which was totally gross). I used to like this place, but I was really disappointed.
