The real deal. So nice to get back to a traditional old school place. Sage our waitress was exceptional. Comfortable relaxing and inviting atmosphere. Food a plenty at a very reasonable price by today’s standards. The bill was about $20 less than our typical bill at other local places. No electronic devices at the table to take your order or pay your bill. Just good old fashioned service. The only thing we left wanting was to come back again.

This is a quirky italian place that we stopped in traveling route 88 to Murphys California. We are vegetarians and a lot of the other restaurants that were open (6pm on Friday) did not have veggie options surprisingly. I figured we couldn’t go wrong with italian and this place was very close.
I walked in and immediately loved the look of the restaurant. If you’ve been to Buca di Beppo it’s kind of like that with lots of photos on the wall and italian statues around. It wasn’t too busy and we were able to be seated right away. The table was set with a cute salad plate that I just loved the pattern of.
Our waiter was young but friendly enough. The menu isn’t the largest but it has all the staples. No pictures so I took to Yelp and Google to get a look at the food and see was was recommended. I settled on Eggplant Parmesean and my husband went with Fettuccini al Alberto.
The waiter brought out bread and butter and parmesan cheese. The bread was ok, it didn’t seem homemade and was a little bit like store brought sliced white bread. I was starving though so I welcomed anything to get started. I wish there had been olive oil and vinegar though.
Next he brought out a big plate of polenta, which unfortunately was smothered in meat sauce. We had mentioned to him that we were vegetarians twice when we were ordering, so it was pretty disappointing to be presented with a meat dish. We pointed to him we couldn’t eat the polenta with the meat sauce and he apologized but they did not offer to replace the dish with a regular red sauce. I was bummed because it looked really good and I really wish they had brought out a regular one. Seems like they could just use the red sauce as a standard so it
After that there was a salad which had a red wine vinegar and olive oil, it also came with peppers, chickpeas and celery, which I thought was a nice way to add some color and flavor to the salad. We then were brought a lentil soup in a large blue bowl. The blue bowl seemed like an odd vessel but it worked. The soup was very tasty!
Finally our entrees came. The entree portions were a little on the smaller side compared to other restaurants, however it is an appropriate amount considering how many appetizers they provide before it. I was surprised the eggplant parm didn’t come with a side of spaghetti, but I could add some for $5. The eggplant was good, not overly fried and the red sauce was very tasty. My husband was very happy with the Fettuccini al Alberto (which was basically Alfredo).
Overall this is kind of a funny place that had a quirky charm. I would come back again knowing what to ask for in terms of the polenta.

Hidden behind the hamburger sign, is a lovely local restaurant.
The place has plenty of seats for the population of the town, and enough to handle skiers.
A lot of locals hangout at this spot and it is quite lively on the weekends.
Food wise is what one would expect from a small town. The price you pay is not bad for a four course meal.
Not bad to stop by if you are hungry.

Amazing vibe. Like you’re in Italy. People are celebrating, smiling. The staff is short friendly. There is lots of room, I don’t think there should be any problems with finding a table ever.
The food was very good. The soup was great. I had a pasta carbonara, it was great too.

I really really love this place, I wish I could come back for more. The dishes come in courses, and they serve soup, salad, breads, appetizer for free.
My favorite dishes are tasty minestrone and ravioli. However the portion is wayyyy out of control, I feel bad wasting my food, really.

Service, food and atmosphere was great.
The atmosphere is such that one can feel comfortable dressing up or dressing simply. The service and staff were very friendly and attentive without being bothersome.
I wouldn’t call the food exceptional, but it was very, very good.
Every meal comes with soup, salad and bread, all of which are large enough to make a meal on its own.
I had the lasagna which was great, and the wife had the chicken scallopini which she also enjoyed very much.
We also ordered the tomato bruschetta which was nice and fresh and had a nice flavor.
The portions will not leave you wanting more.
Highly recommended for a great Italian meal in the area.
