The food was amazing as always. For starters we had the chicories w/ roasted grapes and Gorgonzola as well as the arancini. Then we had the olive and bicolor rabe pizza and the rigatoni bolognese. My gf loves the ring of fire cocktail and I had the Negroni salad cocktail which was delicious. Very friendly staff. 10/10
