First time dining at Filippo Autentica and it was great. The entrees were delicious, the staff friendly and even the owner came over to chat and ended up playing Happy Birthday on the piano for my wife's upcoming birthday. It was an enjoyable dining experience - would recommend and will return. Also BYOB.

Food and service were excellent! It was a Monday night so very quiet. We enjoyed several apps, entrees and a dessert. Would definitely recommend. FYI There is parking behind the restaurant, or street metered parking out front.
