The whole group got carbonara or the spaghetti and it was delicious, everyone loved their meals! Really pretty and quiet inside. The flatbreads were really good, my favorite was the rosemary flat bread that comes with goat cheese.

Fantastic meal as a celebration for 2 birthdays .... we opted to "share" - perfectly seasoned beef tartre, beets,creamy red beet ravioli, onion quiche (perfect buttery and flakey crust), ragu (pasta perfectly al dente), liver and onions, and the Tomahawk. The steak was rare, tender, and savory. Our meals was accompanied by wonderful wines chosen with help from the sommelier - Bastianich Plus friulano 2106 and the 2018 Podere Le Ripi Cielo d'Ulisse Brunello di Montalcino. We ended the evening sharing the Tiramisu - fantastico!
