    I thought I would have to choose pasta or pizza, but 3 lamb chops with tiny potatoes and greens--a surprise entree which was excellent

    Delicious meal, and outstanding service. We tried the specialty pistachio espresso martini cocktail, an appetizer, and split the carbonara and guanciale with chestnut honey pizza. Would definitely go back. It was very loud inside but they also have a small outdoor dining area, which might be quieter.

    Server was great! Made excellent recommendations and perfect wine pairings. We had porchetta, gnocchi & branzino. Amaro flight and tiramisu were perfect finish. Everything was great but he made it special. Love this restaurant!
