Pizzaioli

Drove 40 miles to try something new. We heard good things about this place. We had reservations but only had outside. Probably due to the holidays. Anyhow it is a smaller place within a shopping area. Owner and family work on site and that is something we like. We were sited quickly but had to wait a while for someone to get a drink order. After the drink order it took about 10+ minutes for them to arrive. When taking the drink order, while waiting for the drinks and when drinks were delivered, dinner specials were not announced. Another 5+ minutes when arriving to take orders the specials were announced. It had been so long it was time to order new drinks along with our order. Salads came quickly then our food soon there after. It was hat and presented well. After food was delivered we had to wait a while to see someone to ask for red pepper and parmigiana. We got it about half way through our meal along with our second drink. Overall the inside ambience is very nice. Drinks were good once served but very slow. Food was hot, presented well and flavor was pretty good. We were a party of 4. We each had 2 drinks, a house salad and a pasta entree and the total bill was just over $300. My 4 instead of 5 rating is due to slow bar, long times between checking with us outside and a little high price for what ordered. We will give it a try again in the future and when we do we will update accordingly. We are hoping for a better experience next time.

My husband was so excited to take me here and it was honestly a frustrating experience. The fresh baked bread they touted came to us refrigerator cold and with nothing to put on it like butter or oil. And the place was plenty busy so it wasn't like the bread had been sitting awhile. The big issue was that our waitress had two big parties she was dealing with which means she took our order... And then we never saw her again for 45 minutes. We finally asked someone else to check on our food and our waitress came out with plates that had obviously been warming. She also seemed upset that we had said something, but we had tried to get her attention several times and she and all the other employees kept walking past us and avoiding us. When we did finally get our food, it was legit delicious. And she did check on us at that point and get my dessert that I had ordered going. However, she didnt ask if I wanted more wine, we struggled to get my hubs iced tea refilled, and it was just not the best experience.
