Patrons of the bacaro enjoy an 'ombretta', a glass of wine, with some homemade Italian specialties such as wood burning oven pizzas and baked pastas.

From the first moment I walked in, I was greeted with such a smile and so warmly. That was wonderful! Went on Valentine weekend so thought it would be crazy but instead was so well run. The service was amazing and attentive to the core. Our server was just so great and gave us so much information and suggestions. The attention to details and service was perfect! Oh and the food 11/10!!! Delicious and definitely worth it!! Coming back soon!

We had the best service offered by Charlotte. she accommodated us very well by changing the seated place because of the sun. She was very patient and asked us several times if everything was ok or if we needed something else. The food was just fresh and perfect. We will definitely go back.
