We’ve been here a couple of times, and each time we dine here we love it. Our server was wonderful and our dishes were excellent. Starters were the bread and calamari, bread was hot and delicious. Calamari was lightly battered and tender. Cacio Peppe perfect, Bronzino flavorful, Pappardelle great and chicken piccata plentiful. Desserts were gelato and flourless chocolate cake. Restaurant was beautifully decorated for the holidays as well. We’ll be back!

Pedro was an amazing waiter. He knows his dishes and recommended his favorites which ended up being four favorites! Compliments to the chef! Staff was very helpful and friendly. One suggestions would be to have it business casual dressed for such a wonderful italian restaurant.
