Such a great Italian spot! The pasta was fresh and full of flavor, and the pizza had the perfect crispy crust. Everything tasted authentic and homemade. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was friendly. Definitely a place I’ll come back to when I’m craving good Italian food!

I have been a regular here for more than 14 years, and it is truly an amazing place! The food is consistently tasty, and the wine list is very reasonably priced. We always order the vongole; in our opinion, no other restaurant can top theirs

It was a Saturday afternoon perfect day for lunch with my family. The vibe was relaxing and the food was astounding. We started with the house salad, simple and perfect. Next was the fried calamari and shrimp. It was lightning floured and seasoned then perfectly fried. So crispy. So much to choose from on the menu. Our entre selections were lasagna, spaghetti and clams, ravioli and gnocchi. Finished with chocolate cake, vanilla Gelato with espresso. I’m so glad we decided to visit. Staff was attentive and friendly. Bring cash!

Cozy, old, warm, and classic atmosphere. They only take cash so come prepared!
The fried calamari were perfect texture, and the calamari and endive salad with warm cherry tomatoes and capers is exactly as fresh and flavorful as they sound. The calamari in the salad was a completely different texture as the fried, and both were wonderful. We also had house-made gnocchi with marinara, which were the perfect texture and warmth, and the fresh basil on top added an easy, calm finish.

Convenient dinner near the museum of natural history. We got dishes like ricotta di bufala dorata e fritta and ravioli di ricotta e spinaci in burro e salvia. All the food was delicious. They were very accommodating for our large group, and so friendly and understanding of all our questions! Recommend this place for dinner!

We came in on a cold evening and got seated immediately, place was pretty crowded but the service was very quick and helpful. David was a great server helped us pick from a handful of dishes we couldn’t decide on and helped us througthe extensive wine list. Food came out immediately and was very very solid. I got the tagliatelle bolognese and my gf got some steak and arugula dish I can’t remember the name of. We agreed mine was better but we liked both.

It’s hard to find delicious food in this price point but it’s definitely here at this restaurant! House bread fantastic. The service was fast and attentive and the owner made me feel like I was at home. Awesome experience here.

It was an absolutely wonderful dinner! Despite a slight kerfuffle about our reservation they were super kind about it and were able to seat us quickly despite a packed house! We all argued over whose meal was the best (I maintain it was my lasagna)
Definitely leave room for dessert and order the tiramisu or pistachio cake!
