“ the food here was super yummy and I'm really happy with my pasta decision. The indoor is super cute and decorated for Christmas. The prices aren't bad either. Our waiter was a little rude to be honest, he seemed very put out to be helping us, but it's fine. The food was great and the wait lines were short to be sat and for the food to come out. ”
“ I came here for a work dinner, and WOWZA the decor was on point! Having a meal in a little Italy is always a treat, but especially during Christmas time! I honestly have no complaints whatsoever. The service was great, and the staff was very attentive to our table (we had a group of about 12), and the food was delish. Nona herself would be so proud! I tried a few of the appetizers, but my favorite was the Burrata (unsurprisingly, it was amazing and some of the best I've had). I had built my own pasta dish and ordered the cappellini with vodka sauce and chicken. It was definitely an interesting choice, as capellini is not the go-to for vodka sauce because it does not hold the sauce as well as something like penne, but I experimented and I wasn't disappointed! The drinks, food, and especially atmosphere all hit for me. I want to come back here for a date night! ”
“ We had a very nice Dinner experience Great food and excellent service Christmas Decor was fun ”
“ Really excellent Italian food with a great atmosphere and it was beautifully decorated for Christmas! Highly recommend if you're looking for good quality Italian, great service, and a great atmosphere! ”
“ A friend recommended this little gem. Located in Little Italy. The food is amazing! The service was outstanding I loved city in the patio area! We started with the pumpkin gnocchi. I highly recommend it! Everything we had was amazing! Definitely going back! ”
“ I had the pleasure of attending a party at this charming Italian restaurant, and the experience was exceptional! The food was outstanding with a drink selection that perfectly complemented our meal. The service was impeccable, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. The highlights of the evening were undoubtedly the Chicken Francese and the Rigatoni with vodka sauce, both of which were expertly prepared. The dessert, however, was an absolute showstopper! I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience. ”
“ I've been wanting to try this Italian restaurant for awhile. The interior decor was elegant and beautiful with colorful flower displays, lovely looking statues, and indoor garden room area, complete with exposed brick, plenty of greenery and florals. The space also had some festive touches for the holidays. We were served a complimentary bread basket consisting of bread sticks, bread with sesame seeds, along with regular bread. The bread was soft and fluffy, and quite good with the addition of some butter. For my meal, I ordered the Pork Chop, which was grilled and served in garlic with olive oil sauce. I requested it to be served with a side of roasted potatoes. That pork chop was cooked absolutely perfectly and was a wonderful shade of brown. The meat was tender, delightfully juicy, slightly charred, and well seasoned. The potatoes were also tasty and flavorful. Dessert was spumoni gelato covered in chocolate and I also got to try the homemade Italian cheesecake. I preferred the Spumoni, which was layered pistachio, cherry, and chocolate ice cream covered in a chocolate shell. The ice cream was velvety smooth, sweet, and the chocolate surrounding it was rich and paired well with the ice cream. The Italian cheesecake was just okay. I wasn't a huge fan of the ricotta and texture, however I did enjoy the crust, which I found to be so yummy and addicting! Service was very good. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Everything came out in a timely manner and we were well taken care throughout our meal here. We were still finishing up our meal when it was closing time and everyone was so patient with us. I would like to return in order to try the Veal with prosciutto or Ragu Del Macellaio ”
