they have been at the same location for a very long time and have a good following. Definitely a very nice quaint place with limited seating I highly recommend making reservations. The calamari was exceptionally good but unfortunately the veal parm the meat was very hard to cut. Every restaurant has its off nights so I’m definitely going to go back and give it a second try. But overall very happy with the place

Cozy and cute setting. Staff was friendly, my pasta dish was okay-too oily for my liking but I will try another dish and visit again.

Service was phenomenal! Our waiter was very attentive and checked in often. Food was delicious as well. The baked brie and stuffed portobello mushrooms are appetizer highlights. I got the ravioli for my entree and it was lovely. People in my party got some seafood pasta dishes and were similarly satisfied. They even gave me a birthday tiramisu, which was so unexpected but so welcome! Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Just dined here for the first time tonight and man— we’ve been missing out. We received the best service in town from Frankie and the food was amazing. Loved the vibes, all of the staff, and the amazing food. Highly recommend— truly one of the best in Lakeland!

Fantastic food and very friendly staff! They took care of us so well and even noticed that it was my wife’s birthday ! When we ordered dessert they wrote ‘Happy Birthday’ on her plate with chocolate ganache.

Per its location, Definitely don’t judge a book by it’s cover. This place is amazing! Came here for my birthday and the food was absolutely amazing! Jessy took care of us so well and offered us all the specials and her knowledge on the menu was outstanding! We had the bruschetta as the appetizer and it was so good! I got the lasagna and it was amazing and tasted so good, I didn’t want it to end. My partner ordered the ravioli and it was amazing as well! For dessert, we had the Creme brûlée and it was outstanding! We will definitely come back! And try their Soracco Moscato D’Asti! Phenomenal & authentic Italian!

We were told that when visiting Lakeland, this is a top restaurant. The food and service where amazing, Christina really knows her wine, and I would recommend going with her suggestions. The only reason that I didn’t rate it 5 star on atmosphere is because it is in a strip plaza and it just appears to need a little something more for ambience. Regardless, we will make reservations anytime that we are visiting Lakeland and definitely request Christina.

I love that it’s a local institution and that that menu has a good variety for a small restaurant, but I always leave just wanting something a little more about this place. Service was impeccable but the atmosphere is very crowded for upper level dining.
