Delightful old style Italian.
Had the Burata & scallop appetizer, heirloom tomatoes, fresh Italian mozzarella, arugula, olive oil,refreshing, tasty. Scallops were nicely crisp on the edge,tender inside.
Maple flavored sauce with them was unique.
Fettuccine Alfredo & carbonara for main dishes.
Both were hot,buttery, rich & satisfying.
Young crew of servers were on top of everything.
Bread,water filled,plates cleared Pronto.
Spendy but a nice night out.
Recommend this place if you are looking for Authentic Italian food. Just be prepared to spend a lot. I just wish you could add stuff to your pasta. The dish only have noodles, sauce, garlic & basil. It would be nice if you could add veggies. Just seems expensive for what you get. Also if they had vegan or plant based items. Other than that everything else was amazing.
Great quant Italian restaurant with superb servers. We got the pizza and pasta with meatballs and it was top notch! Didn’t expect such good Italian food outside of the big city.
First time visit. The bread...OMG...the bread! Delicious. Pizza was really good, they use the same bread for the dough, so there's that. Sauces were well balanced. It was nice to see they make everything fresh in house and offer gluten free pasta choices. Price was decent, location was enjoyable with inside/outside seating, atmosphere was fun, service was nice. It will be a place we revisit and will bring friends and family in the future.
Good restaurant. The food is very good, the service excellent and our server was very attentive. One thing I noticed when it came time to pay the check was a charge on the bill that said 'cc adjustment'. When i asked what that was, I was informed that the restaurant was adding a charge to the bill to cover the 4% fee paid to the credit card company for handling the transaction. Hmmm, never seen that before. So, if you pay cash, ask that this charge be removed. Also, when you figure the tip, exclude that charge and the sales tax, which together comes to over 12%. I have no problem tipping. I just don't wanna tip those who do not earn it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this little Italian restaurant!! Our server was great and went above our expectations! This was our first time there and they helped us with the menu choices. I had the Pasta Bolognese, Eggplant Parm and Tiramisu for desert. I couldn't decide so i got both and both were delicious! Will be coming back!! Thank you for a great experience!!

What a special place. This was my first time eating here. The food was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. The hostess and wait staff were exceptional! They were so attentive and engaging. The atmosphere was inviting and cozy. I cannot wait to eat here again.
Truly impressed beyond our expectations
First time here. You can select a bottle of wine from the menu, or bring one in from next door.
Friday night Specials... We enjoyed Halibut and Duck. Shared a Caeser Salad and polished off a scoop of creamy Spumoni.
Thank you chef!
My sister and her boyfriend took my husband and I out for dinner. We're from Minnesota ... always looking for authentic Sicilian restaurants. This is it!!

Some of the best Sicilian I've eaten.
I grew up in Europe, so traditional Sicilian was something I had regularly. Since moving here, I haven't come across many that reminded of the food back in Europe.
This comes really close to but definitely has its own unique spin!
As for the service, all the servers were helpful, friendly and attentive. They anticipated the needs of my family and toddler even well before we were given a table. (High chair, toddler sized plate and cutlery, a paper to color on! You name it.)
We'll definitely be back!
