Great Italian restaurant!!! The food was phenomenal.. I have zero complaints about anything about this restaurant. My favorite dish was the brick chicken, it was aromatic, flavorful and the chicken was very tender with the vegetables. I highly recommend this place and I will be returning back soon to try other items for their menu. Overall, I spend a little bit over a hundred, plus 20% tip.

We had a reservation at 6:45. We called in an hour early to double check that it had gone through through the Google maps app. They had it, but there was no confirmation text or email. When we arrived at 6:40 there were no tables available. We waited till 6:53 and for tables to open up. The girls at the front who were hostesses were sweet but it seems like there is no system in place to manage reservations and time slots.
The food was great, the carbonara was odd because it’s cream based and they add a raw egg yolk to the top of the pasta. It was OK I would say an 8 out of 10, but it was not a true carbonara. The tables are pretty close together so it’s just that little downtown set up.
The Caesar salad was very well done the lettuce was cut up into smaller pieces and they were thoughtful enough to divide that up for us since we were sharing. I think I would give it another try for maybe some of the pizza and a different pasta, but it was an OK meal.

Wonderful Experience! We stopped in on a Sunday evening without a reservation and we were still promptly seated! The atmosphere was Amazing! Watching the staff cook the Pizzas right in front of us was so much fun!! Although it was loud it created a charged environment that was uplifting! We ordered the Arancini Mozzarella and they were little pieces of heaven! The Hammaker’s Pie was Outstanding! And Service was Wonderful!

Came back because we were craving the butternut sauash risotto, and we had to send it back :(. Even the pictures can show the difference, they changed the recipe and it tasted like eating roses. No thank you! Please go back to the OG. On the plus side, we switched it with the chicken parm….and was happy. The basil pesto sauce has a strong basil punch and I liked it, my partner did not. But the chicken itself was nice a thinned with a great crisp crust. Watch out for the little kick in the Paccheria vodka. it’s nice but doesn’t
linger too long. Tired my little ones spaghetti and meatballs and I really liked it, tried to bargon with her for a trade.

We are frequent customer and I do enjoy their service and food. However, the last time we visited, the gnocchi was burnt and left a bad burnt taste. We asked for a side of gnocchi and we got an even more burnt gnocchi. The staff did remove the dish from the bill, however, and we did go home very unsatisfied and with a bad taste

We came here Saturday night and it was AMAZING! We got zucchini fries, mushroom pizza, mac and cheese for my son and split short rib gnocchi!!
The short rib gnocchi was recommended by the manager Mike who was very accommodating! He took the time to stop and talk to us about the menu even though you could tell he was extremely busy. Our waitress was also very kind and checked up on us regularly!
Phone did not eat first. We will definitely be back!

Ordered on a recommendation and it did not disappoint. Had a pizza, pasta and calzone. All were excellent!
I ordered curbside. Everything went ok but I could see a challenge with it when busy. You pick up in the back alley. Overall encourage everyone to go!

Came here for lunch on 9/10/25 and waited 40 minutes to receive food. My salad looked like a train wreck and husband’s pizza/salad special was cold. They were short staffed due to students returning to school. Another customer voiced his displeasure out loud to the manager about the slow service. At some moments there was a line out the door. People were picking up take out too. The kitchen couldn’t keep up. Maybe they need to pivot and only serve the number of tables that one server can handle. For example, 1:4 ratio. So, if there’s only 5 servers, only 20 tables will be available. Restaurants did this during Covid.
We’ve encountered issues in the past and would try again. Now, we will be going to the Lombard location from now on. $50 for lunch and awful experience isn’t worth going back.

Always a great experience. Have never had a bad dish. Their arancini is to die for, very simple setup but so good. Decent prices especially for dish portions. Ordered the kids menu dish and was practically 2 portions. They have a great lunch deal, where you get a personal pizza + salad which is such a steal. Always recommend.

Just always great food, drinks, and service. The Pizzas and mains are always delicious, but the standouts are often the “small plates,” giving you a chance to taste more innovative ideas and flavors in one experience. Last night we had a great Beet and Farro salad (just a touch more goat cheese, and I’d have said, perfect), a Hammaker pizza, and the star of the table, a small plate take Eggplant Parm. Very lightly breaded eggplant dolloped with fresh melted mozzarella, topped with an arugula and fennel(?) salad, served on top of their perfect house red sauce. We ate up every morsel, and dragged our pizza crusts through every bit of that gravy. Service was friendly and helpful, prices are more reasonable than most similar quality places, so maybe it stands to reason, it was a little busy and a little noisy. But boy was it good!
