    This was a more than a great restaurant, it was an experience! Thank you so much, Tony, for making our visit so fun! You were so fun and made excellent suggestions. The menu here is amazing. So many varied and delicious choices, it was hard to decide. The gnocchi with short rib ragu was so delicious. Tony also recommended really nice wine. The atmosphere is really nice, as well. It’s a little corner of Italy in Baltimore. Love this place! Try it, you’ll love it! We will definitely be back. Ann and Mike. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
