UPD0WNACR0SS: Try the Fried Zucchini Fries - Delicate and mushy!
Lee Hoffman: The best fried zucchini I've ever had - make sure to ask for it w Marinara sauce. Chicken parm is good, lasagna is awesome.
Korye Logan: Eat the polenta and meatballs! Don't come on Friday or Saturday night. Don't get the fried zucchini. It sucks. The Dolcetto is great, Montepulciano is not. Music is too loud. Service is friendly.
