The food was absolutely delicious, they didn’t give us a hard time about having an extra guest show up that wasn’t in the reservation, the place is very nice… It was a little bit more expensive than I thought it would be so think about that before going, but nothing out of this world. I would say 35/40 dollars per person, but it varies on what you order. I ordered the rigatoni with vodka sauce and an additional burrata and it was great! Super recommend this dish. And for dessert the famous tiramisu with the sheep. It was soooo good! We got the bigger one and shared. I would say the big one can be for 2-4 people. Very nice. Overall very positive experience!
