We had a table of 6 loved our appetizers and entrees. But we had some issues with your staff being number one no one had a bottle opener, second we asked numerous times for things we never received and third the waitstaff did not no ingredients in the food she was serving. I would have to say with excellent food you need to retrain your staff. For a saturday night dinner you need excellent waiters. They were very nice but knew nothing.

This restaurant has a huge parking lot. Park your car in the lot and walk over to Federici's restaurant up the block for dinner because this place sucks. They ran out of shell steak, they ran out of bread, the shrimp stunk and the waitress talked a mile a minute...DO NOT EAT HERE !

We had dinner there Sunday. The seafood smelled like it was left out for a few days on the counter. Salmon, shrimp, mussels all smelled bad....No owner present when we complained. No manager present when we complained. I dont see this place making it to 2011...

I am from the area and so let me tell you in that this place was one HUGE DISSAPPOINTMENT. The place was sooo hot that i thought i was going to melt and it was 85 degrees outside. The seating is all on top of one another. The service was horrible everything down from the child that was the hostess down to the one server that was barely around if you needed something. I waited at least a half an hr to be served appetizers in a completely empty restaurant while i watched the kitchen staff hanging out in a circle being you can see right into the kitchen! The food served was uneditable and what was more horrifying was that it was RECYCLED. There was a party that was held earlier that day and the place had the nerve to serve a certain appetizer as their "special" (mind you the only one they had to offer...coincidence?)and it looked like someone stepped on it by the time it was served to us. It was no doubt sloppy left overs from the party that just ended prior. What ever you do.... save yourself a waste of time and money and do NOT even think twice about trying this restaurant. The place was practically empty on a Sat. nite and i unfortunately learned the reason why the HARD way! Fanellis should be completely ashamed of itself and clearly has no experience with service nor food!

I was very impressed with the whole dining experience. The food was great, service was excellent and best of all I felt like i was dining at home with my own family. You feel welcomed from the moment you step into the door of the beautifully decorated victorian house. Cant wait until the weather is warm to dine on the beautiful deck
