Easy, comfortable place to get a good meal and glass of wine. Watch sports in the bar area, or enjoy the beautiful outdoor patio covered in greenery when the weather is nice. Great menu, everything is always fresh. Gluten free and vegetarian options are available. Servers are cheerful, mostly college students, they are attentive without bugging you. Pasta substitutions can be made... I asked for fettuccine instead of penne, no problem. Portions are generous, I always have to take some home! There are a few quiet corners, but it's mostly a wide open and friendly place with lots of conversations going.
