Food was excellent, hot fresh garlic twists our pastas were spot ion. Pasta “zoodles” Promavera great option if you’re on the GF or low-carb watch. GF pizza dough from a local baker as well. Highly recommended

Truly a gem of Tucson. This was our first visit, so we didn't know what to expect. Based on meals at other highly regarded Tucson restaurants I didn't expect much, to be honest. Frankly, we were blown away. Everything we ordered was delicious, and a few items were truly something else. We ordered the charred broccoli expecting a fairly straightforward, and basic, starter. What we got was a dish of such complexity that we were taken aback. Another highlight was the rosemary olive oil cake. Usually olive oil cake is one of those hip menu items that never lives up to the hype. This cake was the exception. It was so moist and flavorful. When I took a bite with the cake, cream, and dark maraschino cherries (Luxardo?), it was a mouthful of heaven. We seriously considered extending our stay in Tucson one more day simply to return for dinner tomorrow. Alas, it was unrealistic. But we do plan on stopping in the next time we're in town.

We used Open Table and made our reservation for Christmas lunch. We were pleasantly surprised as we drove to the restaurant. It was a great ambience. The food choices on the menu and the specials all sounded amazing. Made it hard to choose especially after our waitress Margarita shared her favorites. We decided we would just have bread before our meal because all the portions looked large. I had the freshest salad with honey mustard the house dressing. I ordered the Lobster Ravioli and it was perfection. Not too rich. It was well balanced lemon crème sauce with stuffed lobster ricotta pasta. My husband and our other guest both got baked Mostaccioli. They loved it and both took home leftovers. We had tiramisu and I had vanilla and chocolate gelato with chocolate and caramel syrup which our waitress made at her recommendation. Yum!! There. Was nothing I would have changed. It was such a great meal. I'm ready to go back now and highly recommend.

Undoubtedly, one of the best Italian restaurants in town. The teramisu is to die for!

We were greeted and seated promptly and served water. The lunch menu was varied and the items sounded delicious. I ordered the charcuterie board and my friends ordered a pasta dish. Everything was served in a timely fashion and the order was accurate. Each of us was pleased with our selection.
