    If want Italian and you are close to this place, you need to go. The food is great, and the service is fast and attentive. The only problem I saw was it is pretty loud when dining inside. The food is perfect in every way.

    This is our second time dining here and it was great just as the first time. Great date night spot or dining with family. The calzone is the best I’ve had ever! Can’t wait to go back

    Warm rich bowl of egg noodles and sublime seasoning. Pear Gorgonzola and candied walnut salad fresh and tasty. Flourless chocolate cake decadent! We celebrated birthday of a dear friend and it was perfection! Always our fav to visit when in Destin!

    Food and service were absolutely excellent. We sat in the back room, which was a bit empty, but otherwise a phenomenal dinner. Would definitely recommend.

    We were there at 4:30 in the afternoon, happy hour. Apparently, you have to sit at the bar to take advantage of happy hour, but we were not informed. My wife is gluten free and we went there because the reviews said there were gluten free options. (Gluten free pasta ended up being the option.) The waitress was not very helpful (couldn't be bothered) on what was and was not gluten free, pointed us to the special board that had no GF information on it. After my wife ordered in frustration, the waitress came back and said that she could only have bolognese with her GF pasta. Her meal was meh. Mine wasn't much better. It was a lot of money to spend for a mediocre, at best, meal. The drinks were good. Still, very disappointing.

    Ate at bar with very good service from bartender and runner who brought food out to us quickly. Food was exceptionally hot which is not always the case at this eatery, so kudos there. Food is always tasty, and served in good portions. Manager was a little surly. But we were seated appropriately at bar as we requested and a few minutes before our reservation time.
