What a beautiful space! I loved the decor especially since it’s decorated for Christmas. Went here for our 1 year anniversary dinner they sat us at a perfect table for two by the window which was nice and centrally located but still felt private. And we ordered a bottle of wine, arancini, crudo, gnudi and raditori. Everything was excellent! And the service kind and attentive. For dessert we got an affogato, Torta al Ciccolato and espresso martini! I loved our experience and go back in a heartbeat!

My friend and I had a great Black Friday lunch- I had the short rib lasagna and she had a salad with chicken. We both loved our meals. We had a reservation and we were seated immediately and our server was excellent. Attentive, but also allowed us girlfriends good conversation time. Oh- we shared the olive oil cake for dessert and that was good too!
