Finally tried this place for the first time earlier this month and it was absolutely fabulous! Best pasta I've had in a long time. It's clear they put a lot of work into making their food the highest quality possible. Our server was so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Drinks and dessert also knocked it out of the park. With the cozy and adorable atmosphere on top of everything, I think this might be my new favorite date spot going forward.
Our first time here and was NOT disappointed. It is a cute little restaurant with a very nice environment. Martine was our server and she was very attentive. She recommended the penne and it was great. The hubby also tried the Pollo Champagne and he was impressed. Would definitely return. Parking lot near building and restaurant will validate. So scan once inside.
Really tasty food and wine In a cute spot with a great location. Nice central place to meet with friends. The lot next to the building is free and easy to park in - just make sure to verify your vehicle when you’re inside. Will check it out again
Prosciutto was found wanting from original dishes level, pretty sure was ham, would be happy if it was shaved-diced-fried/browned. Seafood is fantastic here, one of the few places you can trust for mussels etc in the state. Extremely cultured and take care of their people, well staffed. Only advice is to avoid party days and plan ahead. Definitely worthwhile a few times a year for hand made authentic Italian. (If you have more money go more, imagine sales meets on patio would be a great bet.)
Hidden Gem! We used to come here almost every Sunday just to work our way through the entire menu. Every visit started with one (or two) baskets of their fresh bread, paired perfectly with olive oil and cracked black pepper. Our absolute favorites were the Tortellini, Ravioli, Barramundi, Pollo al Marsala, and Gnocchi Bolognese—those dishes never disappointed. While the rest of the menu is solid, a few items leaned a bit salty or lacked depth in flavor. The prices are very reasonable. Overall, though, this spot has been one of our go-to places for Italian food.
