    Fantastic first visit! The service was friendly, efficient, and spot-on with their recommendations. • The food was outstanding—especially the fried mortadella, which was a highlight. The pizza was incredibly delicious with a thin crust, flavorful sausages, and a rich, vibrant tomato paste that tied everything together beautifully. We ended the meal with pistachio and chocolate cannolis, which were the perfect sweet finish. • The retro atmosphere adds a funky charm that makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!”

    Everything on your plate tastes great, and it's just the right amount to fully satisfy. Music is nice and in the background where it should be - I came for a nice dinner and pleasant conversation. Service is attentive, friendly and not intrusive. This is a good place to go for a special night. There's a lot of voices when it's really full but still has a private feel.

    We visited for my daughter’s 13th birthday. Food was great and the service was excellent. One of our children has food allergies and they were very accommodating. Noise level is higher than other restaurants we have visited, but to be expected in an open space and we weren’t bothered by it.
