Our friend strongly recommended this place when we had our day trip to Omaha. You would think its a tiny place by looking from the outside. Its actually very pacious!! First comes into view is the bar. Also an area that display the history and story of the owner’s family (i think). As you walk inside, there are 2 areas for dining. It’s very nicely decorated. I got a fetteuccine afredo w shrimp! Its very delicious!!

First things first, food is top notch. I had lasagna and my wife had spaghetti with the brascioli. Both dishes were amazing. We had the house salad as well as the mozzarella sticks and a bottle of Pinot. All food was hot, fresh and most of all delicious. I think a total of four different servers stopped to check in on us during our meal. That was top notch service. I’m a little saddened to see some of these reviews with low marks, I don’t think the can come close to the reality of the exceptional service and treatment we received this evening. Pictured is the lasagna prior to it being devoured.

Not terribly busy for a Friday at 6:30. We do have difficulty with the parking here as my sister has a wheelchair equipped van. They always have a challenge with seating us with the chair and the entrance is barely accessible. The food was delivered quickly and the servers were pleasant and I do love that they have some unique items on the menu. However, my pasta was overcooked and there wasn’t enough sauce on my meal. I know the restaurant business is difficult to staff these days but I felt the quality of the food has fallen from my previous visits.

Great restraint here in Omaha. I have been going here for years and have had never had a bad experience. The food it’s amazing, I’ve tried so many different things there and have never been dissapointed. My favorites are the fried raviolis, spaghetti with meat balls, and chicken parmesan. The staff is really friendly and they’re always playing good music as well.

Wonderful place, wonderful food and wonderful people! I’m so sorry to see it close. Catarina is missed and may God hold all the Malara family in his hands and give them the strength they need. They are such a kind and loving family. I will miss eating here.

Sad I can only give this restaurant 5 starts because it definitely deserves 10. My boyfriend and I went for date night. We started off the cheese fried ravioli. It was fantastic! I got the spinach chicken tortellini with red sauce and a side of white sauce (I love mixing both sauces together). My boyfriend had their Saturday special, sausage tortellini with red sauce. Both entrées were absolutely phenomenal. The food was hot, had so much flavor and you can tell everything is homemade.
