    The zucchini appetizer was great. The bread for the table was piping hot! We all enjoyed our meals but the chicken parmasean was a favorite. Next time we'll try to save room for the dessert menu!

    Fantastic find. Visited with 7 for dinner. This is not a great restuarant for Arlington. This is a great Italain restaurant for anywhere. Pasta dishes, Seafood, Chicken, Appetizers all top notch. Serve very good and attentive. Prices reasonable.

    Went for Valentines day since it was a short walk from home and wanted to try them out. Well, it's supposed to be an Italian restaurant, but there were giant TVs on the walls? There's no bar mind you so it was a little ding to the image of a romantic dinner. My bad, should have looked closer beforehand. Wife's entrée was cold, but was fine after a trip back to the kitchen. My veal saltinbuca sic, was uneventful. The mussels app in white wine was really bathed in butter and was overdone and salty too boot. Oh well, it was reasonably priced. So if you want to sit down at 2 or 4 top, order dinner and watch TV. It will be fine.

    Lovely. Classic small Italian neighborhood restaurant with friendly staff and delicious, substantial servings. Relax, chat with your server, eat a satisfying meal, take leftovers home for lunch the next day…. Terrific.

    Absolutely the best Italian food we’ve had (and my husband is Italian). The chef was kind enough to special make a dairy free option for our daughter. Get the garlic bread, amazing. The shrimp was cooked to perfection as were the meatballs.
