Rustic Italian dishes like wood-fired pizza in a contemporary, open-timbered space with a full bar.

Came here for a date night with my boyfriend for the first time and everything was astounding. Firstly, the pasta is handmade and the texture of the lamb ragu was amazing and addictive. The appetizers are delicious and portion sizes are generous. The environment is more loud than it is calm and quiet but that means business is booming. Also the service was attentive. My boyfriend also said they have the best water he has ever tasted lol I think he had over 25 refills throughout the night. We’ll be back and I can’t wait to try more of the food!
Try the truffle fries!
There is a bit of a wait but it’s so worth it! Drinks are tasty too!

The food was amazing. I chose a pasta dish and the noodles were so tender, definitely fresh. The sauce was incredible. We also tried the short ribs and a fig appetizer which did not disappoint. Don’t skip dessert, a perfect ending to the meal! You will need to make a reservation way in advance as they are extremely popular and it requires a miracle to get in last minute.

I was able to get a table without a reservation, but I do recommend making one for the future. I had a really nice experience here. The atmosphere was nice and cozy, and the staff were friendly and attentive. However it was awfully loud. My favorite dishes were the kale salad and the squid ink linguine, both were fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a good meal.

So so so good. Everything we had was phenomenal, they do have some things that rotate on the menu so if there’s something you want to try, I recommend going for it. Had no reservations, walked in around 5pm on a Saturday, were very lucky to get seated at the bar (3 of us). Service was outstanding, one of the dishes was delayed and they gave us complimentary meatballs. I had the lamb Ragu – amazing. Others had the seafood pasta that was also very good, and the bucatini.

We love coming to the Annex kitchen for appetizers and pizza. The meatballs are amazing and the kale salad is incredible….and I never thought I would ever say that! Everything we have ever ordered here is enjoyable to the palate. Highly recommend!

Okay guys now, I’m not going to lie…. I’m a picky eater. But this is one restaurant that I will happily visit to dine out! I desire an uplifting yet serene and genuine atmosphere, and this restaurant offers just that! Great people, great food, great drinks and gorgeous establishment, all in all would recommend! Kendall will welcome you graciously, she is so very kind! Micheal is a fantastic waiter, as is Shelby (waitress) and Noah (the manager) will always be sure you are having the desired experience last but certainly not least.. Trevor will do you up a delicious pizza, just how you want it! (If you wish to take one to go, he will par-bake it for you and leave instructions on the box!)☺️
My recommendation: Margarita Pizza, salad of your choice (they are all superb can’t go wrong!) with a glass of Prosecco

Hands down probably the best Italian restaurant in Fresno. The food is always on point, tasty and never left me disappointed. Service is also good, the only thing i dont really like is the noise. People are extremely loud and make the environment less enjoyable. A little advice, lights are too dim, a bit more brighter will help to read the menu because not all the tables are well illuminated.

Great service and food. The arancini was good but the meat sauce was better. I had the Diavola Pizza, it was a perfect balance of flavors and heat. My wife had the Fresno State corn pasta. She enjoyed the creamy, sweet taste. However, I enjoyed the service which was exceptional.

We have heard such great buzz about them and they DEFINITELY did not disappoint. The hype is justified!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were a party of four, we all ordered something different, we tried two different cocktails, 1 recommended white wine and 3 different desserts, EVERYTHING was on point, amazing and super delicious!!!
Our server was EXCELLENT, very attentive, he checked on us as cocktails/wine came out, our entrée and then desserts. He always made sure everything was good and had good recommendations.
The vide was awesome, good music, perfect volume and the pace of our experience was just right. I can’t wait to go back and enjoy more of their delicious options!!!

A friend and I came on a Saturday night. It was very busy, which is a good sign. I’m glad I had made a reservation the night before. We enjoyed the rustic, cozy atmosphere. We shared Arancini, Little Gem Salad, Salmon, and Fusilli. The salmon was a bit fishy, and the Arancini and Fusilli were too salty. I was disappointed with the taste of the food considering the high ratings for this restaurant. On a positive note, I will say that the service was very good, and the bathrooms were very clean.
