The food here is pretty good, but not great at all. I'm an Italian-American who still makes my own Sunday gravy, grew up around Arthur Ave in the Bronx and have dined in Italy. I know great Italian food.
So, my spouse had mussels as an appetizer. He said they were decent.
For his entree, he had spaghetti carborona, which was very good. I had the caprese salad, which tasted fresh but needed some dressing, as it was pretty bland. The veal parmesan was tasty and the meat tender, but although the plate was smoking, the food was not hot enough. Servings are large, so we each took half of our meal home and will enjoy heating it to the right temperature tomorrow.
Unfortunately, the service here leaves much to be desired. I want to feel welcomed and paid attention to at a restaurant that's not a fast food joint. We were seated, given menus, and water. Then we waited almost 20 mins to have our waiter ask for our orders. The "on-the-house" fried carrots were nice, but then we were sitting there waiting for nearly half an hour for our appetizers, without even a bread basket set at our table. One of my forks had dried food on it. I set is aside and didn't use it as I didn't need it, but still...a dirty fork?
We finally asked for bread ourselves when the salads came; later we asked our waiter for more bread with the entrees, and it never did arrived. Our water glasses were not refilled once... until we done eating. Our waiter rarely came by to see how we were doing.
Since there are so many really good Italian restaurants in Bucks County and in nearby NJ, I doubt we'll be returning here.
