Attended a professional meeting there, a fixed menu was offered to us. We had a salad, pasta with vodka sauce and a choice of chicken, Salmon and short ribs. I had the short ribs and it was outstanding and a desert was offered. Excellent service and ample parking.

I get the chicken caesar wrap, and instead of the fries they also offer your salad. Both salad and fries are delicious (who knew salad could be as good as fried potatoes!). Nice vibe, lots of areas for seating. Service is not rushed, so if you are on a time crunch at lunch let them know!

I've gone here a couple times for coworkers birthdays since we work locally. We've always had a good time and they are pretty good with getting us in and out within our timeframe.
This last time was for dinner and it was great as well. We got there right at 5 so it was pretty empty but by the time we left it was packed! It is totally a popular Friday night spot.
I ordered the branzino special and it was simply delicious and so was the tiramisu dessert.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 3Oh no 0 - Sep 29, 2023
Kind of a strange place. Decent food though.
Got there at 1pm for lunch yesterday for a business meeting. Went RIGHT to the bathroom, as I normally do! It was kind of strange to have a very large mirror facing me (from my right side) as I sat on the throne. I took a photo, but I'm hesitant to post it here. Anyway, the toilet paper was FANTASTIC. I was a little annoyed at the dark, ambient lighting in the bathroom, however. It made it difficult to see things during clean-up.
Even though everyone comes to Yelp to find out about restaurant bathrooms, I will also mention the food. And drink.
I ordered a special flavored Mojito. They were out of the flavoring (I forget if it was Strawberry or what), so I just got a regular Mojito. It was probably the worst (most sour) I've ever had. I asked if they could sweeten it. They tried, but it really hadn't changed, so I added sugar, and it was just completely terrible. Couldn't even fix it.
We got some Calamari, Chicken Wings, and Fried Shrimp appetizers that were decent. The Wings were kind of spicy, and boneless... a bit stiff. Didn't really love them. The Calamari was excellent. The Shrimp was OK with the sauce they included.
The waiter asked us to place the order for our mains ASAP (this was around 1:30PM), as the Chef needed to go on a break. That was kind of funny, because of the time, and there was actually NO ONE ELSE in the restaurant. I got the Lobster Ravioli for the main, and I was not disappointed. That was really good. One of the guys at my table seemed to enjoy the Penne a la Vodka... and I forget what the other dude got, but it was all decent.
Place was nicely decorated, and yea, it was kind of strange, but some of the food was really good. I wouldn't rush back (I live in Queens, NY), but I wouldn't complain if I had to return. That toilet paper was the bomb.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Dec 18, 2022
Great place with a solid menu!
The Braised Short Rib was hearty and flavorful. I was a big fan on this tender flavor packed dish, and was satisfied with the side of risotto too! Definitely a good spot - check them out!Helpful 4Thanks 1Love this 4Oh no 0 - Stanley M.Kendall Park, NJ0694Apr 13, 2024
An odd place. The guy who seated us kept us waiting for a table ... so that he could talk to us for a few beats longer than he needed to. The food was textbook meh. The boneless chicken wings for an appetizer were like rocks. The burger was tasteless and there was a lame handful of tiny fries that tried to fill up the space on the plate. Way, way overpriced. Won't be returning.

This place is super cute from the outside and set up really nicely inside! We stopped in for happy yesterday and they have a some good options for food and drinks. Lots of martinis and wine as options but I will say the food options are super small portions and also a note, you can only get 1 of each app (which was strange). We got the penne, mushroom flatbread, and rice ball. They were good but the flatbread was probably the best. The drinks were definitely really strong which I'm definitely not complaining about!

They have their own parking lot so you don't have to worry about street parking. We started with the mushroom and cheese flatbread. I really enjoyed the mushroom one, it came with blue cheese which I didn't expect so it gave it a tang. For dinner we tried the penne vodka and a gnocchi dish they had as a special. The winner was the penne vodka, the sauce was really good and the portions are huge!! I would compare the portion size to Cheesecake Factory. The drinks were all good, and strong!

Went here for the first time over the weekend. The ambiance is causal and not pretentious. The food was ok. Boring menu. The service was a little slow because there was one server and I think they were training 2 people. Not ideal for a Saturday night. There was an employee standing in the dining room staring at tables with an iPad. It was so creepy. Was he rushing tables? Then he sat at one of the empty tables and ate his dinner. I've never seen that before in a "high end" place. Not worth coming back.

Hello again, it's me Lorraine. I wanted to add something very very important that management should look into! when I entered the social hub this past
Sat. it was wall to wall people. and I thought about this later but I feel that it's very important to mention! I wondered what was the capacity of the building?
And is the number of people exceeding the capacity? and if there was GOD
forbid a fire? people would get trampled on and I feel a good many people
Would not be able to get out? that was my first thought as I entered and it was wall to wall people. when I saw that great many people all packed it. I
Wondered how many people should be in the restaurant? and are there to many people here? I never entered a restaurant that jam packed before and
I have been at many restaurant's. so I feel that's worth looking into why your restaurant was so packed? I feel it was over capacity?
And I made reservation s on Wed. and it was so packed the only table the woman could offer us was a high table near the kitchen. I am handicap. I have a bad hip and walk with a cane. and that's the only table they can offer me? I told the woman that I could not get up that high on a table. so we were finally offered a table with kids running back and forth my friend's back. and it was so extremely loud that i had to shout and the waiters and my friend to also be heard! I was very disappointed with how the restaurant was over all run! thank you. Lorraine D. I can't ever eat at your restaurant again, because of my sensitive stomach.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
