Recommend: the service and atmosphere is great, will be back. I recommend the Tortellaci al Prosciutto, Salmon Vesuvio, portobello alla griglia, and their special margarita drink.

Was walking through Old Town and stopped in on Monday night for dinner as a solo diner. Food and presentation was pretty average for Italian food, nothing amazing or crazy good. Ordered a entree – chicken with prosciutto on fettuccine-off the specials menu. Also had the pane e antipasti as an appetizer. The appetizer and the chicken were my favorite parts. Was very fun to eat the bread with olives, cheeses, and herb butter. Chicken was the best part of the entree by far.

Delicious food with reasonable pricing. Made reservations before hand. Waited about 30 minutes to be seated. I specifically reserved for the main floor and the hostess attempted to take me to the basement “Tiffany Room.” Our server Josh was not very attentive and kept hiding in the back of a small room behind the bar. Our food was delicious almost everything we ordered was served by other staff. Would definitely visit again for the food. Recommend their Allá Vodka sauce with any pasta options.

Great Italian food. The burrata was very fresh and delicious. Great service as well. Chicken Marsala was nicely cooked.

Neat outdoor patio space with great service. Feels more inviting to me than some of it’s surrounding neighbors, and I bet it’s really charming at night. The food is pretty good. The pizzas were fairly standard and although the spinach arugula salad was tasty it was just sort of thrown in a bowl. Fairly priced beers!

I would have ranked this a 5 but the waiter was kind of a jerk which I didn’t appreciate at all. My friend recommended this place, and I’m always down to review new places. I was actually celebrating my birthday dinner with a good friend of mine. We did not enjoy our table placement but nothing we can’t shake off. But our waiter was just a rude, and seems like waiting us was hassle for him. A big no no for me. My tip reflected that as well but not okay for this industry. Be kind to those who are kind to you. Especially when you are spending more than a few bucks on a plate.
