We ordered 2 of the Zuppa do Pesce and the grilled romaine salad. The Zuppa was so salty we couldn’t eat it. The grilled romaine was good. Immediately after eating a few bites of the Zuppa (couldn’t finish) and half the romaine though my stomach got really upset I couldn’t eat anymore. Def something to do with the food

Horrible! We had a reservation for all our guests and when we got there they had us at separate tables and refused to let us put our tables together. The owner was very rude
Yup, absolutely! Really, really delicious italian, large portions and reasonable prices. Exactly what you want out of an Italian spot. Highly recommend!

Food and service both very good. The bonus is you may bring your own wine.

The food is absolutely delicious! Their service is even more outstanding. I ordered through door dash a gluten free dish and when it arrived I noticed it looked different and that the receipt didn’t indicate gluten free (I blame DD since that has happened previously with other restaurants). I called the restaurant to check and the gentleman on the phone walked back to the kitchen and spoke with the chef. He confirmed the dish was not gluten free and to absolutely not eat it and they would remake it for me. I really appreciated how they approached this and gave me the opportunity to enjoy my dinner. The dish had so much food and was loaded with seafood. I will be a customer for life. Highly recommend!

I have been here a few times. The first time was when they originally opened. The food was good then. I had delicious risotto. Each time I have gone it seemed to have been declining. My most recent visit was for a birthday. We were a group of 14, and out of courtesy for the staff, we went ahead of potential dinner rush. Our server did well keeping drinks full and orders served accurately. They couldn't keep up with table bread requests. To be clear, we only asked for a second round of bread for the table. We had to rearrange the seats to give people elbow room as they refused to add another small table. The owner was not friendly at all, and every time he passed our table he wreaked of cigarette smoke. The food was average at best. There were multiple orders of chicken parm. Each one looked like it could have been prepared at home, and the flavor was lacking. It's unfortunate, but for the money spent I would rather go elsewhere.

As vegetarians, we often eat at Italian restaurants when we travel. We were staying in Northern Wilmington, DE and wanted a place that wasn’t too far, so we decided to try Arugula Ristorane in Chadd’s Ford, PA. I saw the “BYOB” on Google, but honestly it didn’t register since I’ve never seen that for a restaurant before. So, if you do go, just know they don’t sell any alcohol so you’ll need to bring your own. For us, that wasn’t much of an option since we were traveling and don’t generally drink more than one glass of wine with dinner. No biggie, but good to know. When we went in, it wasn’t very crowded, and the man at the front desk didn’t seem the least bit interested that we were there or in seating us. In fact, he just seemed kind of annoyed that we were bothering him. However, the waitress was a delight. Very friendly, very helpful. I ordered the gemelli pasta tossed with mushrooms, peas and sundried tomatoes in a lite cream sauce. It was ok - not bad, but not something I’d rave about or go back for. Overall, it seems like a better place for locals who can be regulars and bring their own bottle of wine or beer. I wouldn’t recommend it for travelers.
