Italian food is comfort food; it's rich and flavorful, warm and hearty, and it's best enjoyed with friends and family. Pasta is food for the body and the soul. We are a family-owned business serving up homemade Italian cuisine to the Stamford community since 1983. Every single dish over the years has been not only authentic, scratch-made pasta, our homemade desserts by Chef Neil Vitiello, seafood, pizzas and more crafted from our family recipes, it's been cooked and served with love too. What's better than enjoying great food with live music? Join us every Tuesday night for Tuesday Night Live Jazz, featuring superb area musicians playing music from the Great American Songbook, pop and soft rock from the decades. Once a month we host an open mic/live karaoke night with Chris Coogan backing you on the keys! From our family to yours, we look forward to welcoming you soon.

My wife and I have lived in Conn and New Jersey where great Italian restaurants are plentiful and we have enjoyed many of them during our 55 years of marriage. This very cozy, relatively small restaurant was a great surprise : a great menu with great food and matching service. I swear the fried calamari which is our favorite appetizer at Italian restaurants was the BEST we have ever had!!! I had linguini with clams. The clams were delicious, large and plentiful. The sauce was so delicious I found myself dipping Italian bread in the remaining sauce after I finished all the clams and linguini.
