    We had a delicious, cozy birthday lunch here! It was everything we were looking for--delicious food in a cozy environment to catch up. *BYOB* but we just opted for some sparkling water to start. All their options sounded delicious. We finally decided on Zucchine Flan for starters (fresh and tasty) and dined on Cavatelli and Gnocchi for our mains. Must try their desserts too! Espresso Affogato and Crostata. YUMMM. Neighborhood gem. Highly recommend! Staff was very courteous, knowledgeable, and polite. Owner stopped by to say hello as well :) (they offer a Business Lunch menu--will need to go back to try. A more affordable option to try other menu options!)

    Our first dining experience was wonderful. From the host greeting to our waiter Will and concluding with a fabulous tour and history presentation by the general manager Frank. It made for a really fun and enjoyable evening. Our cocktails were delicious as well as the Arancini, tempura calamari and farm house salad. Will recommended the Chicken Scarpariello and Branzino which were both excellent. Loved the atmosphere and the jazz duo was the perfect background music which added that extra touch of elegance. Will most definitely return.
