Great Homemade Pasta Fagioli Soup! Loved the addition of sausage and the homemade pasta was delicious. Also, they have the BEST Ricotta Cheesecake. Great restaurant.

So disappointed in the portion size of the eggplant parm and penne pasta. It also was smothered in red sauce way too much to be enjoyable. In the past I've asked this restaurant to please secure their food better. They don't staple the bags closed to ensure it's safety. I doubt I'll be ordering again.

The broccolini was extremely over cooked and bland. The Sea Bass looked more like a piece of salmon than Sea Bass. That was the extent of the meal. A ton of overcooked broccolini with a small piece of Sea Bass. Totally not worth the money.

The Homemade Stuffed Artichokes are so delicious! It's a big artichoke. Also the Ricotta Cheesecake is to die for! Very light and creamy with that hint of lemon zest that brings it all together!

I love assaggini but I am so disappointed in this $17 salad. Barely any meat, no olives, this is just a garden salad with a few extras, not a $17 antipasto for 2
