Stopped in for dinner with my Mom and two Aunts after a day of antique and thrift shopping. The experience started with Carlos, our server and part owner of the restaurant asking if we would like garlic or plain bread. We selected the garlic and it was amazing. They used fresh garlic. We got the calamari to start and it was delicious then we each ordered a dish and every tried a bite of each others food. The food was wonderful. We shared a slice of cheesecake and it was so good as well. Carlos was also a delight. He was very attentive and friendly. The aesthetic of the restaurant was cute, cozy and very clean. I would give it a 10 out of 10, highly recommend, go there.

I order from here frequently. Food is always amazing and better than I have hoped for. It is clean and everyone is so friendly. Portions are generous and reasonably priced. The Stacciatella Soup is my favorite. I wish they sold it by the quart! Maybe I should ask!

Excellent food! We had an app and 2 pasta dishes and were so impressed! The food is great, but the place is quite small for dine in but if you can get a seat, it's a great experience. Hidden gem!
