Food is good. Not superb, but definitely great food. The pasta is a little overpriced for what you get, but they make a good cheap attempt to glorify italian food. What I mean by this is that the presentation is done really well, including home-made bread and roasted garlic in olive oil; and fancy pasta dishes. When it boils down to it though, there really isn't anything inventive here, it's all just presentation. Regardless, it is tasty.
HOWEVER, and this is a big however: you can't have a conversation here, It is a VERY small place and they pack you in like sardines. It gets VERY loud. So loud in fact, that I couldn't have a conversation with my dining partners. I just had to sit and stare around and be amazed at just how loud this place is.
Despite how good the food is, I will not be returning as there is no point to dining in such noise. If I can't have a conversation with whom I am dining, or if I have to scream to be heard, there is no point to it.
