Food was outstanding - best Italian food I’ve had in Texas. We had the tuna carpaccio and roasted carrots for the appetizer - both were loaded with flavor and super unique. We then had the bolognese pasta and vodka sauce pasta accompanied by broccolini for our entrees. The pasta was perfectly al dente and sauce on both dishes was fantastic - true classic dishes done perfectly. As a Chicagoan, I’ve found it difficult to find any good, authentic Italian food in Texas and this place hit the mark! service was also fantastic - shoutout to Jose! We will be back.
