The food is incredibly delicious, the ambiance is charming and cute, and the music gives the place great energy, you instantly feel comfortable there. However, the service wasn’t the best. On the day we visited, we were the only customers, yet we still didn’t receive great service. I got the impression the waiter really didn’t want to be there—like he’d rather have been at home resting. That said, I’d absolutely go back for the food alone because it’s absolutely wonderful!

Loved our meal and the kind service! We had the Zucca tortelli and funghi ravioli, plus the house made focaccia and mortadella to start. And some other things — all were very tasty and easy to share with my friend. The room is very beautiful and comfortable to hang out.
