    A hidden treasure. The food was delicious and the service was great. Really enjoyed it. A bit noisy because of the location but we were still able to have a conversation. Would definitely recommend it. A great time!

    Services are super good, Courtney is a very nice waitress. Food is a bit over priced, portions are bit small with large sized plates.

    Our server was busy when we first sat down, so the hostess came and took our drink orders and asked about food allergies. The food was great.

    Excellent Bolognese Tagliatelle, Red Tuscan Wines good. Service this time was just ok but probably because we sat far away at the counter. Still enjoyable.

    Food is excellent as is the service, but the price for both wine and pasta is above the value ($30 for a simple pasta dish and $65 for a $20 bottle of wine.
