We also had the cacio e pepe spaghetti and pasta amatriciana, delicious. We ended with the ethereal pistachio and ricotta cake, sublime.

We were a party of 8, it was our first visit and it was a busy night at the restaurant.Staff were terrific, friendly, accommodating and the food and service were all excellent A little pricey, but fresh high quality food and ingredients.We tried some apps & salads and half of us had a pasta entree, half tried non pasta entree specials and everyone enjoyed and brought home leftovers. Except for the noise level of a crowded restaurant I could have given an all 5 stars rating. Overall a very nice spot, give it a try.

It was our 47th wedding anniversary and the total evening was excellent from Greeting to Dessert. Our server was Adriana and we could not ask for a nicer and more knowledgeable server. We enjoyed Fried Artichoke Hearts and Bruschetta, both delicious and uniquely done. For entrees; Special Zononna Sauce over Taglietta, Chicken Milaneses, Rigatoni with Mushrooms and Shrimp and Chicken Picatta. Only one dessert; Affogato!! The portions, taste and portions were very good. This is BYOB so we did!! We will go back in the near future. Make a reservation, especially for Saturday as the restaurant was very busy!! We give it our best rating of Two Thumbs Up.
