    We wanted to try a new Italian spot and we saw this place had good reviews and it definitely lived up to the hype. The food was great. The service was excellent, and the tiramisu was phenomenal. We will absolutely be back!

    Lovely neighborhood type authentic Italian restaurant offering pasta and pizza dishes with creative antipasto selections. We tried the cacao e pepi after seeing the video on Facebook, the bucatini and a gluten free pizza. Some of the pasta is made in house. Reasonable prices. Our waitperson Daniele who made the Lemon Tiramisu (the highlight of the evening) was delightful. Will return to try more dishes. Loved the overall experience.

    Small restaurant, very cute decoration. People were very very loud. Services was good, random paper menus. Service was good/normal. In the memo I wrote that it was my wedding anniversary nothing special was made to celebrate us, definitely not a place for a wedding anniversary, just casual diner spot

    We discovered this restaurant six months ago, and it has quickly become one of our favorites. We’ve returned numerous times since, and every visit has been exceptional. The staff is outstanding—always warm, attentive, and professional. The food is simply delectable, and the service is consistently top-notch. Most recently, they went above and beyond to make my daughter’s birthday celebration extra special at the last minute. Our server, Juan, was an absolute delight, and management personally checked in to ensure everything was perfect. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality made the evening truly memorable.

    Server Juan and the rest of the staff are excellent. We had bruschetta, arugula salad, cacio e pepe, pasta bolognese, shrimp, cannoli, cafe latte. All were excellent except shrimp were a little mushy. We love this place and will retry

    We were seated quickly once arriving. Our food was great, we ordered the lasagna bolognese and a pizza. The lychee martini was quite strong but manageable. Our waiter Nico was very attentive and polite. Overall such a great experience and will be coming back.
