Av - Scranton

Where to start... first of all the staff is incredible. Everyone from the hosts to the bartenders and waitstaff make you feel like home. I've eaten here an innumerable amount of times at this point and have enjoyed so many great meals. There have been some misses here and there but anytime I wasn't satisfied was handled appropriately. Secondly, I've played here as a musician on Jazz nights pre-covid and the owners and bar staff treat you like a customer, not like a lesser human which happens at places. Out of everywhere I eat in the Scranton Area this place is the only one I always get excite to eat at. See you soon Amanda, Pat, Josh, Tom and everyone else on the staff.

I had several bad experiences at the old location in Moosic but have since amended my review for the new spot in Scranton. The menu is not terribly extensive but is executed well. The bar area is beautiful and the drinks complex and delicious. The clientele and price point is slightly more upscale than other places in the area. Sometimes patrons will get a bit too 'animated ' after a few drinks, making it hard to hear or enjoy your meal. Definitely a great date night spot or a place to meet friends for an after-work cocktail.

The food tastes good but the sauce on my salmon was a little too much

Service staff was good but the food sucks!! Eggplant parmesan was frozen and stale !!

My husband and I came in for a meal this afternoon and we were immediately sat by the most pleasant of women. We got a private corner booth, extremely comfy and exclusive feeling. We were greeted shortly after by our lovely server Josephine, who explained the features on the offered menus, but also explained several features not listed on the menu that are offered as a special. She took our drink orders, promptly delivered them, and offered to put an appetizer in while we looked over the menu. My husband and I ordered a Ceasar salad to start; several minutes after putting our order in we received beautiful warm fresh baked bread and a side of olive oil which transitioned us perfectly into our starter. The lettuce was fresh and crisp, the croutons absolutely had to be made in house (so delicious! and the dressing was the best part of the entire salad. So fresh and bright with the lemon but the salty hint of anchovy kept the dressing traditional and fantastic. For entrees we ordered a filet mignon, ordered medium rare and cooked to absolute buttery perfection. It was topped with a Gorgonzola sauce and while the sauce was a hint too salty for my taste, the filet was cooked exquisitely and the concept of the sauce was absolutely spot on as far as flavor. It was paired with a crisp and flavorful side asparagus and a creamy mashed potato. Our other entree was the bone in pork chop, which is offered medium/medium rare as per the chef’s recommendation. We ordered per recommendation and were presented a beautifully juicy and tender bone in chop topped with crispy onion straws. It was topped with a wonderfully sweet sauce that paired so well with the pork, which quite literally could be pulled off the bone with a fork. The pork included asparagus and a side of some sort of roasted potato which was such a complement to the sauce. Thank you so much to Josephine, our sever. She was sweet and attentive and was informed about the restaurant’s specials. She made sure we were taken care of without being an annoyance and offered us prompt service. We also would love to compliment the kitchen and whoever developed the concept of the menu. Absolutely beautiful and thoughtful pairings of flavors and ingredients and so well executed. The interior and atmosphere of the restaurant is lofty and classy. It’s pleasant to be a part of and while it feels slightly upper class, it offers the many comforts you would expect of a wonderful Italian restaurant. We will 10000% be back many times in the future and will happily recommend this restaurant to everyone we know!
