One of my favorite local restaurants..... I've always had a positive experience here -- the food is great and the prices vary so you don't have to pay a lot for a meal if you don't want to. The service is attentive but not smothering. They have a live piano player and scatter rose pedals on the tables on certain nights which can make for a romantic evening. The only negative part is their martinis -- honestly, they are very blase and not worth the price. Still, I will keep going back. If you decide go, try the almond-crusted Chilean sea bass -- it is excellent.

Italian...Pasco County style. Food was fair at best. My wife's veal was tough. My grouper was ok, but nothing special. Service was slow. Decor is very Pasco county...lots of plastic stuff. And, prices are high. Paid $32 for my very average grouper. Our party had a very disappointing, but expensive, dinner.

Good food at a hefty price. Good food and good place to try to impress someone but prices seemed a bit high to me. Romantic, good atmosphere, good service. If your a working guy save up your $$$. You can wear a coat and tie and not feel weird.

Disappointing. From all the reviews, from various sources, I expected an excellent restaurant. I found the food to be unenjoyable. I always judge an italian restaurant by their tomato sauce or gravy. I think I would have rather opened a jar of ragu at home. (and that would never ever happen)
