    BEST authentic Italian food in the city of Louisville. Being an Italian-American from Philly, I should know, BEST atmosphere. Very medieval Medici feel. Amazing servers- friendly, caring and attentive without bother. Spent our 28th anniversary there last night.

    Excellent food and service. Soft Christmas music was playing and the ambiance was soothing festive. The tables had a lovely floral and candle centerpiece. All of the food was excellent however I must rave about the salad wedge, its the best I have ever had.

    While the food was good nothing outstanding. It seemed that the entree was overwhelmed by the side. Several entrees had Parmesan fries which covered two-thirds of the plate. Online menu different from actual menu. This is extremely frustrating when you take the time to pick out ahead of time what you would like to order only to find those items not on menu. In addition, if you are trying to keep to a budget during holidays having to make snap decisions while ordering is counterproductive.
