I read a few positive reviews on this site, so we decided to give this restaurant a try as we were in the area. It was extremely disappointing, from the quality of the food to the staff service. I have doubts on whether the owner and chef really knows anything about Italian food. You can only choose from one of several set lunches.

You can only choose from one of several set lunches. We ordered a seafood risotto and linguini with bacon, broccoli and cream sauce with "prawn soup" as appetizer.
I ordered a glass of chardonnay to get started. It came straight from their wine fridge but it was not even close to being cold. I mentioned it wasn't cold but the staff said it was the coldest temperature the fridge could be: 16 degrees. 16??? Hello!?!? Chardonnay needs to be served much colder than that!
"Prawn soup": when we asked what the soup of the day was, the waitress said something along the lines of "prawn soup"? I couldn't really understand her very well as the way she said prawn sounded like clam. So I asked if it was clam chowder and she said yes. Imagine our surprise when the soup arrive...it was a straight up fish soup! The staff should really know what is on the menu. Taste was ok.
Seafood risotto: extremely dry, the few pieces of seafood (1 mussel, 1 scallop, a few shrimps perhaps) were probably defrosted that morning. I had a few bites and that was enough.
Linguini with bacon/broccoli/ cream sauce: average taste, but the broccoli was replaced with cucumber. I asked what happened with the broccoli, and the staff said that they ran out of it in the morning so replaced it with cucumber. A bad replacement..just because it is also a vegetable and green? The cream sauce dried up very quickly and it was just a very average dish.
Overal it was very disappointing. We won't return there, and do not recommend it.
