    My wife and I stopped by this gem for a Christmas Eve brunch. Borderline breathtaking experience! Everything from the holiday cocktails to the house made pasta was unbelievable. Alex, an absolute legend, provided unparalleled hospitality while connecting with his guests at the same time. Highly recommend this Italian restaurant in Hyde Park, you won’t regret it!
