The BBQ pork here is pretty solid. Got it with a side of hot sauce, classic Eastern Carolina style. Perfect for a quick lunch when you&#39;re craving that smoky flavor. They get it out fast, too.

The chicken piccata was so good! Perfectly cooked with fresh pasta. The homemade sauces really stood out. Great spot for a casual dinner with friends. The vibe was just right for catching up.

Milana was so helpful explaining the specials on a packed Saturday. The warm apple cider wine really hit the spot. Service was smooth even with the crowd.

Our server Chito was really on top of things. She got our orders right, no fuss, and even pointed us to a great little bakery nearby. That kind of local tip is always a nice touch.

The ribs were incredible, so tender they fell right off the bone. Morgan, our server, was just lovely&mdash;her smile really brightened the whole table. A really nice vibe here.

Maura L. was our server and she was just the sweetest. So kind and attentive, really made the meal feel relaxed. Service was quick even though the place was packed.

This place is open crazy late on weekends, which is a lifesaver. I was here past midnight just grinding on some work, and the vibe was actually pretty chill. Coffee&#39;s decent, too.

Been coming here for years. The patio is a real gem, especially on a quiet evening. Food&#39;s always solid, nothing fancy but hits the spot. A good neighborhood hangout.

Been coming here for years. The Penna a la Crema is just as good as the first time I had it. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.
