We ordered takeout lunch from this Italian restaurant and pizzeria. We had a Margarita pizza, chicken wings and a broiled Haddock. We ordered on line and went there to pick up our order. The food was very good and satisfying.

Such a great experience! We came down from Montreal to visit the Syracuse area during labor day weekend and enjoy the New York State Fair.
After hearing about this place on a popular Facebook group called “Where Syracuse Eats”, I was very excited to check this out.
We dined here on Saturday August 30th. The place was pretty full but we were able to get seated without a reservation.
The restaurant was homey, warm and inviting – the service was amazing and the food was a highlight of the trip. We ordered the tortellini with shrimp in a pesto alfredo sauce, the meat sauce rigatoni and the Avicolli chicken which is a breaded cutlet with a delicious creamy bourbon sauce.
The chicken was outstanding, honestly I’ve never had a sauce like that and savored every bite. I kept thinking about how I’ll find something similar back home.
Our dishes came with salads and complimentary garlic bread knots.
The portions were huge, we have plenty of lefotvers, everything was delicious, cooked well and served prompty. We were also impressed at our server who boxed everything away for us once we were done and encouraged us to take the bread as well and even use the leftover sauce for dipping. No waste!
In terms of pricing, this was very fair – the quality of food and portions are more than satisfactory.
Only small downside is the narrow parking spots at this restaurant – unfortunately a pick up truck parked next to us and we were able to see the driver open his door and hit our car in the process. There was no damage but the spots are tight and I can imagine this happening frequently as it was very narrow to get in and out of the spot.

Great authentic Italian restaurant. The food is always amazing. We had the chicken wing pizza. It had a great mix of wing sauce and blue cheese. The last time we went there we had the chicken bacon ranch pizza, it had the perfect blend of sauce cheese and spices. Service was good, the waitress boxed up our pizza afterwards. The atmosphere is genuinely Italian with pictures of Italy all over. Pizza prices are excellent, especially for what you get. Portion sizes are generous. If you haven’t been there yet you should go. Outstanding, highly recommended.

Came in on a very busy Saturday night. Host asked if we had reservations and immediately heart sunk- we didn’t. Thirty seconds later she finds us a booth just for us. Phenomenal attention to detail, service, timing. Entire team was enthusiastic. Our server Anthony and his colleagues crushed it. Value for dollar spent is hands down is the most well priced place we’ve been to in a while. Couldn’t have asked for more from a homegrown restaurant. Y’all should be proud!

Food was great, I didn’t care for the boneless wings but my husband liked them. The food was ready, hot, and the order was 100% correct. That’s been a bigger issue lately when we are ordering for 6 people and I was so happy that there were no mistakes. Thanks for s great meal done well on a busy night.

Having been born and raised very close to New York City, I have had the pleasure of trying many Italian restaurants and pizza establishments. I can confidently state that this was the best pizza I have ever tasted! The Alfredo sauce was also exceptional, rivaled only by my father’s own creation. It is not often that I am left speechless by a new food experience, but this was indeed one of those occasions.

Nice restaurant location in an area that doesn’t appear to be very busy. Service was great and seating was left to your choice. You order in the front and they bring you the food. My Co driver ordered the vodka pasta with chicken and a meatball. The sauce was not over powering and full of flavor. Chicken and meatball were cooked rather well and not burnt. As for myself I had the spaghetti with a marinara sauce. (Meat sauce is a mixture of beef and pork) Spaghetti noodles were cooked perfectly and the sauce was a strong tomato flavor. The dinner plate came with garlic knots and your choice of a soup or salad. The garlic knots were not freshly baked and kind hard and dry. (Not a fan of them). The salad was fresh with no complaints. Overall an excellent experience and definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re in the area.
