So glad this 44 year established restaurant survived the recent tough times.
Good food and entrees still include soup or salad at no extra cost! My entree also came with a complimentary side of spaghetti & marinara. Their daily made desserts include an old favorite of mine, the red wine sundae.
A Class Act in attentive, friendly service and decor. The owner, Kent Gaccetta visits every table and knows many regulars by first name! It's a family owned restaurant that makes customers feel like family.
FYI, they charge 3.5% for credit card usage.

2021-Nov, Sat night, party of 2.
Lots of parking. We got seated right away.
We ordered 1 appetizer (Calamari), 2 entrees (Linguine in garlic sauce & cheese ravioli), 1 soda, and 2 desserts.
The calamari was ok. The linguine was a little bland, but the ravioli was good. The pumpkin cheesecake was ok, but i did not like the Spumoni.
Service was great!!
Our total was about $65, before tip.

To be honest, I was mortified. Nothing like fire and brimstone warning signs plastered all over the lobby about refusing to seat “incomplete parties” to make you in the mood for wholesome Italian comfort food. The menu is obscenely overpriced and not worth a fraction of the cost. There are no genuine salad dressings, just bottled Italian and Ranch. I ordered a nearly $11 steamed mussels appetizer and it came with a whopping eight mussels and a meager sliver of garlic bread. This was followed by a bland, mushy, flavorless spaghetti and meatballs with sad looking two meatballs floating around the watery sauce. Two forlorn, flavorless garlic knots finished off this mockery. I’m also not sure what is happening in the bathroom, but the men’s room smelled like a raw sewage treatment plant somewhere in rural Romania. The denouement came at the end of the wretched meal, with a laminated card in the receipt folder that stated I will be given a 3% “adjustment” on my bill because it was tendered through a credit card. Not a word of warning beforehand. What’s really obnoxious is that the only reason this restaurant gets away with this nonsense is because they promote themselves as a “mom & pop” eatery. A corporate restaurant would’ve have been ripped to shreds if they ever pulled these kinds of stunts. Never coming back here again, not even with a Beretta 92 aimed at my temple.

I went for a somewhat early dinner on a Friday. They open at four in the afternoon. The staff was friendly and I was seated immediately. I thought the food was delicious and a good value. Soup, salad, and bread were included with the meal. The spaghetti with meatbal and sausage was very good!

Visiting the area and was craving Italian. Maybe I’m just spoiled by actual Italian joints, but this place has some nerve. The Good: Service was great!!! Especially for a weeknight.
The bad: Friend was served two paltry meatballs on top of what they said was “homemade” spaghetti. $20 for my dried out chicken parmigiana too! Absurd. The bathroom smelled like a barn, and THEN they have the nerve to give you a little note about a 3.5% fee for credit/debit processing. At $15 for spaghetti and meatballs they’re making a huge profit, don’t let them fool you. 4.8 stars is either fake reviews, people in centennial don’t understand what real Italian food is, or this place has slipped from its former glory. I’m inclined to believe the latter. I’m sure being open only 4 hours a day isn’t helping either. Just plain sad.

I had a good dining experience experience. However, I left my earring there. The hostess found it and put it away for me not in plain sight or letting anyone know where it was. The owner was furious with me that I was looking for it at the hostess station and basically said never to come back and not to bring any friends either. The bus boy knew exactly where it was. Horrible treatment from the owner. He treated me very badly and insulted me. How can customer service be this bad.

When I first arrived, the lady who seats the people at their tables didn't smile or welcome me. She had such an attitude on her it really set the tone for the rest of my dinner. My main waiter, Miguel, was difficult to understand because of his accent and shoved a bottle of wine in my face after I ordered a glass trying to get me to buy it. It's one of those 10 dollar bottle of wines you can buy at a liquor store that's marked up 400%. I ordered a lobster ravioli dish with a side salad and minestrone soup. The soup tasted like it came out of a can, and the salad was a salad. There was no offering of fresh grated parmesan cheese over the table like other Italian places. The lobster ravioli was average. There was more volume of sauce on the plate than there was ravioli. It came with a side of garlic knots that were pretty good. When I finished my salad before the main dish came out, I placed my fork on the plate and put it to the side for the waiter to pick up. A different waiter kid comes by and says to me in probably the most passive aggressive, condescending tone I've ever heard, "Can I ask you to keep your fork, PLEASE?" The pluses of this place that is it very quiet, they have nice jazz music playing, it's very "italian-themed" (duh) and quite spacious. I thought it was a pretty below average experience but maybe staff were just having a bad day.

Cozy, intimate dining spot with outstanding service and good prices. My wife had the stuffed shells and I had the lobster ravioli. Absolutely delicious food! We'll be back.
