On Yelp, Anthony P, from Atlantic Beach, gave it five stars.
“Went to this place for my 39th wedding anniversary with my family,” he wrote. “I must say it was very enjoyable. Everything we ate was excellent service was good highly recommend it.”
Sam K, from Oceanside, also loved it.
“Food here is amazing and service is great,” she wrote. “I love that it's family style because my friends and I tend to share our meals anyway. We got the calamari, baked clams, burrata, chicken francese, penne alla vodka, and cannoli dip. Everything was delicious, but I was surprised with the dessert because I didn't think I would like the cannoli dip as much as I did. We went on a Friday night, so they also had live music and some people were dancing. It seems like a fun place to hang out at, even if you go just for a drink.”
