    Delicious home made pasta, and meatballs. We enjoyed everything about our meal, except the noise level. Their downstairs does get noisy and was busy tonight due to half priced wine bottles. Solid place to go for delicious food, drinks, and excellent service.

    We had exceptional service here as always. The drinks with house made limoncello and strawberry purée was crisp and perfect for spring! I love that they still serve bread. Remember delicious bread before everyone started hating carbs? They have that! With herby oil! the half chicken was a bit dry but the flavor was delicious.

    We went here yesterday for our anniversary dinner. This was the first time we visited them and we were not disappointed. We are vegetarians so everything we ordered was vegetarian. The food was excellent. After a while we were full but couldn’t stop eating it was so good. We had Rolli Alla Francesca and rigatoni alla melanzane along with roaster potatoes. Everything was a hit. They also had dessert and drink that came with the kids menu and my son got a pistachio gelato - again out of the world taste. But the best bit was - I had casually mentioned while booking my table that it’s our anniversary and they actually read that comment and the manager offered us a dessert and shots on the house. And not just any dessert - it was a profiteroles which was out of the world. I have been to Italy and after eating here I could say I went back there again. Our server greeted us with a smile the whole time (unfortunately couldn’t get his name) and the ambience was also upbeat. I have already referred it to my friends here and will definitely go back. Thank you for taking such good care of us!!
