Loved food. Only one other table while we were there and service nonexistent. You have to ask for bread (we found out after meal). I will go back for food with understanding that service not worthy of tip (but we still tipped which contributes to problem)

It was a quite Saturday late lunch and it was wonderful! The grilled focaccia and mushroom arancini were excellent. We had the lasagna, the Gia sandwich which were both fantastic. Their Caesar salad is like none other! Great food, great service. We will be back!

We went to lunch and had the delicious fig and prosciutto pizza. I also had the fusilli and it was hot Temp wise and so delicious with the shrimp rolled in. We had a bottle of the Pinot Grigio very satisfying. The arancini is a must. We’ve had it other places and this is the best. All in all this restaurant is definitely in the top five in KC.

Thank you so much! We're thrilled you enjoyed everything, from the fig & prosciutto pizza to the arancini. It means a lot to be in your KC top five, and we can't wait to see you again!
