Came here on a Tuesday evening and the restaurant was busy. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with Christmas decorations. There’s two dining areas. We were seated outside of the main dining area. We made a reservation. The table was ready for us but there was no staff/hostess and the bartender was on the phone. We saw three staffs and all greeted us but none of them asked if we needed help. We had a party of 7 and everybody was there standing by the door waiting. We ordered the appetizers
The restaurant is located in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn and was established in 1991. They prepare Italian cuisine. Tables are available for customers to dine in with servers. 🍲 Soup, salads 🥗, appetizers, pasta, sides, pizza, entrees, desserts and beverages are options. I ordered the pollo toscano which is grilled chicken breast with yellow and green grilled zucchini, asparagus and roasted peppers over spinach risotto with a balsamic glaze. The shrimp scampi is sautéed in garlic
The food was freaking fantastic... The bartender tall young Italian guy was very nice... He guided me to order the perfect dish shrimp 🍤 scampi with white rice and garlic 😋 sauce 😋... The service was great...
