    I absolutely adore this spot! Definitely an underrated place for dinner. The food is fantastic, the sharing experience is collaborative sparking conversation, the interior is intimate and cozy, and the service is kind and helpful. The Christmas decorations really added a cozy and wonderful aspect to the entire dinner. This is not my first time as it is hard to not want to come back. My favorite dishes are the croquettes, garlic bread and the radiatori vodka. 10/10! My one slight disappointment would be in the inability to split the check. Otherwise fantastic!

    Happy hour was an excellent deal - $5 glasses of sangria or house red/white wine. The house red on HH was delicious and the sangria was great! (Waiter upsold me to add Brandy which was unexpectedly another $10+ to the $5 sangria - really that is the only negative I can say about this place). I have celiac and they have an extensive GF menu that my friend and I both ordered off of so we could share. Best thing we got was probably the goat cheese stuffed peppers and the mushroom flatbread. Absolutely delicious! Excited to go back!

    Our first experience was positive. Good authentic Italian food and service was excellent. The only funny thing was Tiramisu in a mason jar. Very funny for a restaurant priding itself on being Roman. We enjoyed our dinner and would recommend.
