This place is a diamond in the rough. The place has a great casual Italian vibe. Food was fantastic, I got spaghetti carbonara and I found myself licking the plate clean.

Cindy Chan
Food and staff are great. Highly recommend the Calamari Caesar Salad. The wood fire pizza was good. Only available on Wednesdays. The anchovies one was really salty and over powering. The arugula and the artichoke one was good.

Amazing pizza dough, crispy and golden outside, chewy inside maybe the best I’ve ever had! Seafood salad was fresh, bright, and very generous serving size. Gelato is made by hand in house and flavors rotate, I had the chery , it was so smooth and rich! Very authentic experience, they have a garden out back so you know the ingredients are fresh and it’s so Italian they even have a bocci ball court.

A very beautiful small local restaurant. We were there just expecting a normal lunch and we were in a hurry. But it turned out to be the best day. The food was so good. I was trying to order Mozzarella sticks but the cook suggested zucchini flowers. I wanted to try something new but had a doubt.When the food arrived we finished it in 5 mins. My kid also loved it. Glad I didn’t say No . We had spaghetti, cheese pizza, ravioli, chicken tenders. Everything was so amazing and my elderly Mom who always hesitates to eat outside told me , the food didn’t gave her any indigestion and she just loved everything . The cook and the owner are so welcoming and a calm place to dine in. Just loved it

Dinner w friends on back patio. Pleasant service and ample portions. Asked for a sauce change on a standard menu item but chef refused. My shrimp & scallops in marinara had ample seafood but unfortunately the sauce was bland. Others were pleased with their dishes.
