Overall, the food is probably 3.5 stars and the service 2 stars…
We had the special for an appetizer which was some kind of deep fried root vegetable, I didn’t order it and couldn’t really tell what it was when it got there. It was just okay. I then had the shrimp pasta in a light butter/​oil sauce. I was looking for something pretty light that night, and this dish was, but I think it could have had better flavor, it was mostly plain. I also found a piece of wrapper from what looked like cheese maybe, and the waitress ended up comping my meal, which I definitely respected.
Now, we were with a big group (8 people), so I always try to account for that, however there were not a lot of other people in the restaurant. Our waitress couldn’t have had all that many more tables and yet, drinks took 15 – 20 minutes and food probably took about an hour. She was nice enough and maybe was trying her best, but it still shouldn’t take so long. Unfortunately, I pry won’t be back, there are just too many other good restaurants in the area.

The service was not good. Our server did not go out of her way to make our experience great. She simply was just there to deliver our food and that’s all. We didn’t get bread with our meal, not knowing we need to ask for it. Once we did ask for it our server didn’t bring us any oil or anything to go with it.
The food was simply okay. Nothing special.
The dessert was just the same. Okay, but not worth the price.
To be fair, I wrote the restaurant letting them know about our experience and I was very nice about it. I was hoping to give them another chance in the future, but they didn’t bother to respond to me. Overall, a bad experience. Won’t be going back.

Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no. In a city full of good and great restaurants there is absolutely no reason to eat here. Terrible food, incompetent service and check your bill very, very carefully.
We took ten people here for our daughter’s CU graduation dinner and couldn’t have been more embarrassed. Let’s see: beet salad that can with no beets, steak salad that came with no beef, cold mushy risotto, minuscule lamb chops for 30-​some dollars that came with about a tablespoon worth of lamb on each chop, pappardelle that came in one big stuck together ball, garden salad with the kind of junky lettuce you get in a Denny’s salad.
We got arguments about what was supposed to be in the things we ordered.
We heard lots of excuses about graduation being a busy time (there were empty tables) and purveyors not delivering food (then tell your customers that the beef salad will have no beef before they order it).
And, to be fair they did say they would take some of the things off the bill. Nice gesture. Except they didn’t do it. When we pointed that out they took the promised items off, and then added things no one had ordered.
Inexcusable, terrible, and thoroughly unpleasant.

In spite of trying very hard, the wait staff didn’t know what they were doing. The menu items sounded amazing but food was a disappointment. One guest was a vegetarian who was given beef in her ravioli. I felt sorry for the waiter who was ill prepared to serve. The kale salad wasn’t good. I filled up on bread.
I do not recommend anyone to go here.

Wasn’t my first choice for a Sunday night pasta dinner but I ended up pleasantly surprised. The décor is pretty modern and cool, the staff was very nice and decently efficient.
We split one of the salads and the pasta bolognese and a side of polenta. Everything was delicious and brought out in a timely manner. The portion of the pasta is smaller than most restaurants, but a pretty perfect size.
Overall I would say this is a great place for a date night!
