 My wife and I tried it a while back after reading many rave reviews. We
 were quite disapointed with it. The food was fine but not great. What
 was poor was service. For such a small place the service was oddly
 disorganized and our meals were served just warm. Amazing when the
 kitchen is barely 10 feet away! Anyway, probably an off night but we
 haven't bothered going back to try again.

 My experience was positive:  friendly service (although the place is a
 bit cramped), excellent food - great house salad, wonderful fried
 artichokes, tasty and large main course.  A friend of mine has gone
 there frequently and continues to rave about it.

 Parking is bad though.  If you're lucky, you can find a place on Craig
 Street... or in the evening the CMU parking lot further up Forbes is
 open.
