    This is my second time here and I will definitely be coming back. The food is delicious and the service is lovely. We were a party of 8 and everyone enjoyed their meals. It was great being able to talk and hear all the conversations at the table.

    Our lunch meal started with some fresh, soft, warm bread that was excellent. I had a roasted veggie panini which was perfect - crispy on the outside and wonderful sautéed veggies on the inside. My best friend had a sausage pizza - which had a nice thin crust and lots of sausage. It was our first visit to the restaurant and we will go back since there are so many items on the menu we want to try.

    Great food and service! We had originally made a reservation for 6, and had no issues adding a 7th person. We are not in Burlingame often, but we will definitely be back!

    Food was delicious! The arancini was delicious and the lamb shank was excellent and huge! Lava cake and bread pudding were yummy. Great neighborhood restaurant.

    Waited 45 minutes to sit down after a reservation, but on Valentine’s Day expected a little wait but not that long. Then we got the manager as our server, he showed up once and didn’t bring our food out and didn’t ask how any of it was. All in all just no real service food was great but not worth the wait or the money.

    Took over an hour to get our food. Even with a set Valentine’s menu, we ordered first out of the 5 tables around us, and 4 tables were done with their food before we even got ours. It was our first time and we were pretty disappointed.
