We started with burrata and prosciutto, funghi salad, calamari and carpaccio.. all amazing, baratta was a crowd favourite, mine was the funghi salad. Second were the pizzas, we had the sausage pizza and the goat cheese aubergine pizza…. Simply amazing, third were the pasta.. the bolognese was so delicious along with the mushroom prosciutto.. just wow. And pls have their desserts! The tiramisu and the affogato were so amazing.

    Absolutely perfect in every way. We were 3 couples and asked for a round table and accomodated. We’re seniors, hard of hearing, challenging and had the most accommodating server named Greg who was unbelievably cordial and with a sense of humor. All in all, a great dining experience, food, service, atmosphere, comfort. Thank you C.T. - we’re in the ‘hood and happy to frequent!
