So first of all, the staff is incredible. Everyone is laid back but super attentive. A feeling of being at someone's house more than a restaurant. I love the choices from salads to heavy meats, so depending on your mood always something to choose and enjoy. The quality of the food is great, fresh and flavorful. There are some things I really like such as the lasagna, the lamb, and Burrata salad. I love the patio and outside bar. Its very spacious, and I really appreciate that everyone is not sitting on top of each other, lots of room between tables. You definitely want to give that place a try, it will become a regular place to have a meal.
Amazing experience! The wine/food pairings were the best I’ve ever had! Everyone went above and beyond to make sure my friends and I had a great time! Highly recommend the private red room for a larger party. Will absolutely be returning!
Had an amazing first experience, was able to sit outside right next to the pool which was just an incredible atmosphere. Our waitress was very pleasant and the cocktails were amazing. We started with the bread and fried calamari, both were great but that bread was definitely the star of our appetizer round. For our entrees, I ordered the gnocchi which was beyond delicious, definitely the best gnocchi I’ve ever had. My family member ordered the salmon special for the day, the salmon was cooked perfectly, it was juicy and tender. The salmon was served over a bed of pesto pasta which was also very tasty. Didn’t get a chance to order dessert since we filled up on bread, but I am definitely eager to return to try more menu items!
Fresh pasta, yes please! Delicious marinara sauce with guanciale, pasta cooked to perfection. Burrata and salad was so creamy, bread was crunchy and warm. Gnocchi is my favorite dish there, I could bathe in the cream sauce. Pizzas are great, and so are the scallops with risotto. I’ve been here 4 times and never tried anything I wouldn’t order again. I love sitting outside by the water, beautiful ambiance. I always spend a lot of money because I want to try everything, but I leave satisfied and happy.
This place is VIBE! We were a group of 8 people. Even though we didn’t have reservation, they got a table without waiting for long. Their cocktails are delicious!
They have a limited menu, most of the items has pork.
Overall it was a good dine-in experience.
Would come back with a smaller group to try the indoor seating.
Cocktail: Casta Diva
Entree 1: Half Roasted Chicken with basil pesto, topped with Rosemary and Dill
Entree 2: Pesce Del Giorno (Salmon)
Love the setup outdoors! We sat outside therefore I cannot speak for the inside, but it was a beautiful night out & this is such a romantic, chill & tranquil vibe. The appetizers were very good, however the calamari was a very small portion & the burrata would present better on a plate instead of a bowl. The entrées & desserts were delicious! We got 2 of their specials: Salmon & Ribeye and a pizza. We will definitely be back!
Gorgeous spot. Love the water spot in the courtyard. The outdoor ambiance is absolutely stunning. A little difficult to get to using Google Maps and parking is tight. Fresh pasta, drinks and food were delish. I was not a fan of the cannoli, nor the fact that you have to pay for the bread. I had the pasta bolognese and it was very good. The shrimp and calamari could have been more flavorful. I'd definitely go back, I bet it's stunning in the outdoor section at night!
Went with a group of 8 and got a table without reservation. The service was really good and the server had utmost cordial demeanor with the patience to repeat the night's specials twice. The drinks were really nice and liked by everyone in my group. I personally ordered Ford vs Ferrari and, serendipitously, it was made strong to my liking. The only discomfort we had to go through was the gnats and bug bites here and there because we were seated outside at a corner table.
Beautiful atmosphere with superb service. Salmon special was top notch. Only drawback was gnocchi was lukewarm. Cool enough to knock a star off which was a shame because this place is nice and I’d come back. Fried rice app was delicious. Rich with melted cheese.
So I came here alone for a bday dinner, to treat myself since I didn’t have that greatest of a bday on Monday. I ordered:
Casta Diva
Seared Scallop Fonduta
Bread Basket
Ford vs Ferrari
Vanilla crème brûlée
& everything was delicious. I’d give this first time experience a (5) if I felt like my service was a little better. I legit felt like my waiter forgot about me. He was nice but .. I’m here alone.. birthday.. I just felt like just that alone. Perhaps engaging more? Other than that I’m definitely coming back. I’m also aware he was probably super busy, inside and outside. He was super kind to me. Just wanted more engagement. Not lengthy convo. (I received a candle with my desert) so 5 STARS!!! I highly recommend this place too!
Kim was AMAZING. I took my gf to dinner here, experiencing this place for the first time. The scallops, bread, and spinach ravioli knocked us out. I'd give 18 stars if I could.
The vibe , ambiance, and service here are amazing . We went for dinner here with a reservation. We had cocktails, which are amazing. We ordered a bread basket. It's good but can be better. For Entrée, we ordered principessa pizza, which is interesting and good. For dessert, we had lemon tartufo, which we loved. It's a good experience.
