I've been here so frequently that it feels like home. They always seem to have a table available at the time I want it. The food and wine always hits the spot. Their tiramisu is great... we used to get it to go because we were stuffed from dinner but didn't want to miss the treat. What I'd initially thought of as a very tacky interior has grown on me as well. It's great for large dining groups. The service is good. I've yet to be dissatisfied with this place.
Pros: Service, generous portions, no frills italian
Cons: nothing too exotic to experiment with
