   Our first visit at this recently opened restaurant in Lewiston. Really nice decor. Very friendly service - although perhaps a little inexperienced. My husband had the fried oysters and, although they were tasty, were mostly 3 bites worth of breading and not worth the $16 price tag. For dinner he had the braciole and I had the chicken milanese. Both were very, very good. The presentation was lovely and portion size was perfect. We had room for dessert and opted for gelato (how can you not like gelato?!) I recommend a visit!

   Food advertised as "contemporary Italian cuisine" but my partner and I found our meals bland, without any noticeable seasoning. My partner had the gnocchi with Bolognese sauce and I had the braciole. Tomato sauce was tasteless. Food was on the overcooked scale and the side of grilled asparagus salty. Disappointed.

   Staff was very attentive and nice. We had the short ribs and pollo alla Milanese. The short ribs melted in your mouth and the Milanese was very good. Will go back.

   Food was excellent. Heard good things so my wife and I checked it out last night. Little on the pricier side but for good food I don’t mind paying extra. I’ll definitely go again.

   The food was outstanding and the service was great, we were there early on a Wednesday evening so it was fairly quiet. The menu had many options,including a few vegetarian choices, which I appreciated. It is a rare restaurant which has braciole on the menu, which spouse proclaimed very good. If it wasn't Lent I would have tried a dessert. Maybe next time :).

   I would say overall it was a good experience. Just a few mishaps. My husband had to get up to and find our waitress to ask for some Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes. I ordered the Chicken Milanese and it had too much shaved Parmesan on top. He ordered the gnocchi and they were very good. The rice balls need to come with more sauce. The biggest disappointment we thought was that it was asked on OpenTable if there was a special occasion and we marked it for a birthday celebration and nothing was done. Maybe they don’t do anything for a birthday or anniversary. Overall, it was okay. We would definitely go back but not in a hurry

   I was hoping the move would change things but it seems it didn’t. Tables need white table cloths and real napkins food was not hot no butter or dipping sauces for forcaccia oysters not fresh. I am Italian so I know what to expect. It fell short.

   Thank you for visiting. We’re a casual Italian restaurant, as clearly noted on OpenTable. Our 207-year-old building is part of the experience—exposed wood, warmth, and character to create a relaxed but thoughtful dining experience. The tables are custom and expensive, and we use high-quality napkins made from recycled materials—details we’re proud of-and not a lack of attention to detail. Each dish is finished and set under a warmer where it waits less than a minute for servers to bring it to the table. I personally checked on your table and removed the oysters from your bill. We stand by our food, service, and space. Our team works hard to provide honest, authentic food and hospitality. It's disappointing to see that effort overlooked. We know who we are, and we're proud of it! — Owner

    The food was very good. I looked forward to the leftovers the next day because the portions are generous. There was too much time between apps and the main course. Maybe we were there on an off night.
