    The food was well-prepared but not adventuresome or particularly creative. The pizzas are probably the strongest part of the menu, small but hand-crafted. Although reviews suggest there’s a liquor license, it’s actually BYOB. A nearby table of younger folks seemed thrilled with their meals, and a single serving of tiramisu will easily serve 4. If you like old-school Italian you will likely enjoy this.

    Great service! Space is very limited so keep this in mind. Food was very good and I believe the pricing is very reasonable. We ordered the Parmigiana for an appetizer and it was so good. I’m not a huge eggplant fan but decided to give it a try and this dish over delivered on our expectations. For the entrees we ordered one of their specials which was the Frutti de Mare (huge portion, enough for 3-4 people) and we also ordered the Orreciette Bari Vacchia which were both so good. For dessert we got the tiramisu which was really good. Portion size was very big (good for 3-4 people). Would definitely come back and try their other dishes. Service was amazing.

    Love this place! We ate on the patio quite a bit during the summer and have done carry out 4-5 times since then, but this was our first time eating inside. Nice atmosphere and great service. The eggplant parm (listed as an appetizer but I had it as my entree after we shared the grilled calamari/octopus/shrimp) is just wonderful. My husband thinks the sausage pizza is one of the best he’s ever had. We will be back!

    Our server was excellent. The tricolor rnb salad was extremely salty so we couldn’t even have a few bites of it. Cacio Pepe was salty too and quality was very less. I would not come back.

    We Apologize for your bad experience, miscommunication in the kitchen happens at times and i will assume salt was added twice to your dish. We would like to invite you back for a complimentary appetizer and entree of your choice.

    Loved the focus on regional Italian food. The mozzarella was fresh and the pasta true to authentic ingredients. My pasta carbonara was packed with savory goodness without adding unnecessary ingredients. Festive and loud atmosphere.

    This was truly one of the best meals I have ever had. We did the Chef’s Tasting menu and it was FANTASTIC! Each course somehow got better than the last. The Chef explained each dish to us, and was incredibly kind. I am always on the hunt for new restaurants and rarely frequent the same place twice, but I will definitely be back. This is without a doubt the best authentic Italian food I have had in the city.
