About the restaurant

A unique Northern Italian dining experience in Margate, Florida.

Northern Italian cuisine can be described as one of the most refined, royal and diversified cuisines of Italy, characterized by the use of fresh stuffed pasta, polenta, risotto, game, truffles, mushrooms, cheeses, and rich hearty soups.

Our menu celebrates the region's diverse flavors and presents them for you to enjoy.
We prepare our homemade pasta fresh everyday which can be paired with a variety of meats and seafood found native to the region.

Our extensive wine collection of over 600 labels - all temperature controlled - highlights multiple regions of Italy, with the main goal of providing a wine list that has a balance of traditional, rare and interesting selections that complements our cucina piemontese.

Had been told the lamb chop appetizer was terrific. Was excellent. Hot and sour soup a bit different. Okay. Has many "different" dishes. Outside dining was refreshingly quiet.
