Avoda Water 5 out of 5 stars★★★★★My wife and I just happened upon this beautiful little authentic Italian restaurant headed out for dinner on a Friday night. It was quite with nice music playing softly in the background. One of the things my wife noticed is how clean everything was, no dust on any of the chandeliers or anywhere! Oh and did I mention the food!! My wife ordered the Chicken Picata and was very satisfied. I ordered the Lobster Ravioli with Shrimp and creamy gorgonzola red sauce, by recommendation of our waitress Aaliyah, which was not on the menu. It was just fabulous! The dinning atmosphere was elegant. If you're looking for an authentic Italian restaurant thats off the beaten path, look no further. Don't take my word for it, you must try it out and see for yourself. Be sure and check out the dessert menu. I had the Bourbon Pecan Pie. The bourbon was not overpowering, it helped offset the sweetness of the pecan!! 😉

Holly Nelson 5 out of 5 stars★★★★★Lovely little spot, delicious and fresh cuisine. I was served bread immediately, and ordered the chicken parmigiana with a glass of Chianti. the sauces were chefs kiss. The house Italian salad (not pictured, I ate it immediately) dressing was delicate and bright, and the marinara I could have eat with a spoon. Excellent staff! The interior is quaint, clean and intimate, a great spot for a special occasion. Sorry for the half eaten food pic, I couldn’t wait to dive in.

xx xx 3 out of 5 stars★★★☆☆My boyfriend and I checked out this restaurant last week. We were very impressed with the service, which was fantastic! BUT the food was just average Italian food. The complimentary bread service was nothing to write home about, and the caprese we had as an appetizer was purely average (decent mozzarella but poor quality tomatoes). My entree of shrimp ravioli had a sauce that was overtly tomato-y and acidic, like it was purely tomato paste. The dessert we shared, tiramisu, was just okay. The food was definitely middle range which is disappointing considering the price range. The restaurant on the outside is in a fabulous White House and is super cute, but the decor inside is a little off. The walls are black and there are kinda gaudy chandeliers hanging around-you can tell they are trying for a romantic, dark vibe but it just felt weird inside of such a cute old house. Overall, I would come back again for a drink at the bar (again, the service is phenomenal) but not to eat.

Deborah Squire 5 out of 5 stars★★★★★We have the pleasure of coming in here for our anniversary dinner, the interior dining area was a little bit loud since we came on a busy Saturday night however our server offered to move us into a more quiet area and we were able to enjoy the intimate setting of the private room. The back patio is absolutely beautiful, we were encouraged to explore and see what this restaurant had to offer. Our server cher(?) made an excellent recommendation for us to try the limoncello cake when we were done with the evening, and we were pleasantly surprised that their limoncello liqueur is also made completely in house! Definitely had a little bit more to drink than we planned but it was a welcome surprise. I Had the flounder piccata and my husband had the pork roast osso buco. It was all excellent, this is our new date spot!
