Hands down, some of the best pizza in COS! Crispy sourdough crust all around, and quality ingredients! The risotto was also amazing, the texture was perfect and really nice flavor.

The staff were very nice and timely with our food. The atmosphere was laid back. The food was great too! The classic pizza is delish, and the tomato soup is some of the best I’ve had. It’s so creamy and rich- kind of a meal on its own. Their menu is accurate that one pizza feeds about 2 people, though I’d recommend getting a side or soup along with it. The gelato is also very good. I had the pistachio and it was very creamy, but not overpowering in flavor.

I absolutely LOVE this establishment!!! We were fortunate enough to buy a place in close proximity, and I’m taking— we make it our business to come here every single week! The food, the atmosphere, the service, the vibes.. it never gets old. The ingredients are clearly scratch made, you can watch them make your food, the gelato is so incredibly fresh and delicious.. I cannot rave enough about them! We have never had a negative moment or experience! We come for dates and we have also come for family outings. Space for everyone and portions that are exquisite. PLEASE give this amazing neighborhood gem a try! You will never be disappointed!

They have a chic ambiance – modern, clean edges and minimalist. We came here on a Sat afternoon and it wasn’t too busy. Parking could be an issue as there is street parking outside in the residential area so lots of cars are already parked in the area.

The trifecta was achieved! This place is really cute and upon walking inside, the smell in the air makes your mouth water! The service was exceptional and the food, specifically the Focaccia, Burrata, and Cauliflower, was really really good. This was a happy hour stop for us so we didn’t try the Pizza – but we did have drinks and they did not disappoint! We will be back!

Ohhhh boy…this was disappointing for sure. It’s Friday 5pm and very disappointing italian to go. We had a POLPETTA & MOZZARELLA with spaghetti and POLPETTA & MOZZARELLA & Rigatoni. The spaghetti was limp and mushy, sauce was tasteless no spice and no tang of tomato, smallish meatball was burnt and over salted. The rigatoni was mushy, the sauce lacked spice, and the meatball was wet. We paid extra for focetetta bread that wasn’t even toasted. Finally we ordered what was supposed to a flour less chocolate cake “with homemade whip cream”. What we got was more like a small brownie with NO whip cream……pictures are coming….its too bad but expected alot better

Had dinner earlier this week and we had a great time. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting. Both the drinks and food were excellent. We had a salad, lasagna and pizza and there was plenty of food for two people.

Good food but pricey. There is no dedicated parking so you may spend some time looking for a street space. If you can walk here do it. We got here at 6:30pm and had to wait for a table to become available. Inside seating is first come first serve. You can order your food and drinks at the front desk. Very friendly service! Food was great but the pricing was a little over budget.

I really wanted to give it five stars but it was actually a little bit cold inside and outside. It made it kind of uncomfortable for us.

The Roman Style Pizza was very light, airy & very tasty. Their spicy lasagna was spectacular & the pasta layers in the lasagna tasted very smooth and fresh. They make freshly made pasta. We didn’t get to try their gelato; we’ll do that next time. Highly recommended this place!
