We came for our anniversary dinner and really enjoyed our meal. Our calamari appetizer was great. We loved having side salads and rolls before our meals. Our pasta dishes were hot and flavorful. Dessert was such a treat! Both desserts were rich, delicious, and had great presentation. Our server did seem inexperienced but was really positive and friendly. Prices are very fair compared to many Italian restaurants. Great experience overall and we will definitely be returning. I noticed they also have lunch specials that we may have to stop by for!

The bar is a decent size and it is separate from the main dining room. It is a cozy setting with good lighting and it isn't too loud. You can still hear the muzak. Service is polite, attentive, informative, and prompt. Fried mozzarella with marinara is good. Chicken quesadilla as it comes is good. Not too spicy, flaky but cooked well where it isn't floppy. Primavera has an assortment of fresh veggies that weren't mushy, and the cream sauce was light and delicious. 12oz Portuguese style steak has mixed veggies and roasted potatoes. The steak was cooked as asked. It was tender and juicy. The fried egg was good as well. The sauce. It had so much flavor! Added sautéed mushrooms to it. The whole dish was yummy! Worth every penny. The rolls that came out first were hot and tasty, and light, not burnt or hard like a stone you can throw. The side salad was a good portion and the veggies were fresh. Carrots are sweet. The portions they give for each dish are generous! We will be back to try more off of this vast menu!

I was here about month ago from out of town for a wedding this place is across the street from the hotel we stayed in so we gave it a shot for lunch and than again for evening cocktails. Alex the manager was very knowledgeable of the menu and when asked for rec's she hit on the nose. Everyone that works there was very nice and attentive with us. Had a great conversation with the evening bartender, Bert, very nice person as well. The pizza we took for dinner was fantastic as we're the wings and the pasta dishes we had.

Great place in my backyard, drove by it but never noticed it. We were looking for something new and decided to try it. Great menu, lots to choose from, friendly servers, tasty food and good drinks. We will go again soon.

This place is beautifully decorated, uniquely laid out, and staffed by some of the kindest, hardest working people. the only reason the food wasnt five stars for me, although it was delicious, is we only had the kind of standardized banquet fair. Things you could get at other Italian comfort food kitchens although it was done very well. 5 stars to me is presentations, layered flavor profiles, and unique fair you cannot get anywhere else. overall a wonderful experience, and though it is not close to where we live we will be making s return trip to see their awesome staff and search for gems on their menu!

This is my go-to place. Alex is the absolute BEST bartender and person in general. She can make about anything and it is SO good! Also, so glad Burt joined the Elizabeth’s family. He has been a great addition and is so funny and kind! Service is excellent! Food is delicious! My go to pasta dishes are the salmon rose and sausage rose. They are out of this world. I LOVE their Portuguese salad. Everything I’ve tried from here has been great! Their house made lemon Italian is also fresh and delicious! Recommend them 100% Love your biggest fan- girl in the cat glasses!
