   Everything was fantastic! This is such a cute date spot. The food was delicious- highly recommend the lamb ragu as well as the short rib, but I'm guessing you can't go wrong. Service was amazing. Thank you!

   Attentive to personal needs of diners, including allergies, reservation notes, timeline, and small comforts. Never rushed, excellently coursed. Good wine recommendations, beautiful plating; dishes with simple ingredients and preparation, but beautifully complex and layered flavors. Second best dining experience I've had in my life.

   Great experience with delicious food! Didn't know what to expect as when you walk in, you still think you are walking into someone's home but it was a great restaurant with a great ambiance. Had two apps the lamb ragu and the short rib. Short rib stole the show. Great environment and staff! Will return again when the patio is open.

   This place has always been a go to for the gnocchi. It was very disappointing this time. Dry and lacking the delicious buttery sauce taste. Had to add salt. :( The short rib was super dry. Thank goodness for the sauce and the moist risotto to help balance In the meantime, the mushroom appetizer and the arugula salad and pear salad were delicious The apple dessert was delightful. Our server Eva was terrific. Attentive and friendly!!

   Started off with their Black Manhattan (Woodford bourbon) & Verdicchio as cocktails - very good. Salads & gnocchi (butter, sage) were excellent. Shortribs as the main entrees were perfect. Friendly and attentive service made for a wonderful dining experience.

   RUN to A Tavola for the mushrooms! They are marinated for 2-3 days and are an absolute delight.

   Delicious meal at a non-pretentious neighborhood locale. Simple Italian recipes but high quality ingredients. Several vegetarian options.

   Nice quiet and quaint place for dinner but food wasn’t very impressive. Wait staff was very kind and ambience was nice as well.

    Every course was better than the last. Our service was impeccable. The cocktails and wine superb. Our all star courses were the mushrooms, gnocchi, ragu, bolognese, the short rib and the sea bass. And the chocolate flourless cake and pana cotta. We cannot wait to come back and do it all over again.
