New Years Eve Dinner. Everything was perfect. The Sicilian scallops were excellent and the risotto under them also or better than excellent. Salads well executed. Caesar dressing was notable. The veal chop probably was the best steak out I’ve ever had - simply otherworldly. Vitello also quite good. Service was excellent without being overbearing. Our waiter was Nori. He was very knowledgeable with helpful suggestions on both food and wine. Very nice ambience. Amazing experience.
Went for the first time for a Friday night dinner with a party of 4 couples. Lively atmosphere and cozy ambiance. Also has outdoor patio. The eggplant first course was delicious and everyone else at the table enjoyed their salads. The waiter told us the scallops on special that evening would be the best we’d ever had. He didn’t exaggerate—they were fantastic and everyone at the table was very pleased with their entrees and cocktails. The wait staff was attentive, friendly and fun. We would all dine here again.
Our dinner experience here was nothing but top notch. Although located in Kirkwood, the excellent food and superior table service reminded us how much we enjoy eating in similar Italian style restaurants that you might find on "The Hill". You'll want to be prepared for the finer dining experience - but it's certainly worth it.
Our experience was incredible. Our server, Adam, was very friendly and efficient and contributed greatly to our experience. The food was exceptional too - especially the Fettucine Romana. Superb!!
We had an excellent time having dinner here as a family. Definitely order something with red sauce - it was the best of the dishes we ate.

My 89-year-old mom said: "That is the best meal I have ever had!' She loved the warm bread, the mixed green salad, and, especially, the Siciliano breaded veal, which was "perfect." And, the side of veggies was so good, she ate some of each of the skinny green beans, roasted new red potatoes, and braised carrots, but usually won't eat veggies. Photo is proof!
Another dinner companion had the same dish and also shared it with her husband, who both raved about all of it.
My garlic lemon chicken with prosciutto (skipped the cheese) on arborio rice was excellent, but a little heavy on the salt. The waiter said he'd bring me those veggies, but did not...?
Our other companion had one of the night's specials, jumbo scallops on arborio rice, which he adored, but, also, no veggies. Seemed odd...
For antipasti, we shared the house meatballs and baked eggplant dishes, both fabulous.
Mom and I will get another dinner each from the generous portions!
The outside patio has many tables and some have umbrellas. Ramps are somewhat hidden, but available on the left of the building or behind. Otherwise, many steep steps to climb.
We would definitely return!

Great service. Very helpful when creating a meal for a 7 year old. We appreciate that. Restaurant looks nice and I would recommend.
The best experience for fine dining. Absolutely the best. Love this restaurant food and great service. Highly recommend.
I’ve been here I think 3 times, it’s my husband favorite restaurant and we came for his birthday last night. My first time the fettuccine was good but the chicken was off, between the texture and the flavor. Last time and last night I had the farfalle mascarpone and it was spectacular. I also had the polpette di casa appetizer and it was pretty good as well. They didn’t have peach purée for bellinis (?) and they asked me if strawberry was fine which it was since I had it that way before but this one wasn’t good. The cannoli was just ok at best, and it was 9 dollars, not worth it at all. We will return for sure but I’m not getting bellinis or cannolis again.
GREAT food!! Only issue is the tables are close for talking. Service is topnotch. Love the place
