What People Are Saying
from Google"Our server had excellent knowledge of each item we asked about on the menu. He was friendly and helpful. We ordered the Burrata which was easily split 4 ways and is rich and savory. We ordered both the Negroni flight and Cello flight which are both highly unique and delicious. The Whiskey Menta is also an excellent cocktail choice. I fell in love with the Tajarin - the crab was cold and the pasta was hot, creamy and rich. Altogether, this is an excellent restaurant!"
"Love the food. Great blend of flavors that really worked together. Many time these wood-fired pizza places just assemble things because they sound good and when you taste them they feel “assembled”. These flavors really flowed well. Very strict about reservations but noticed many open tables. Must have issues with staffing."
"We checked out the downtown spot for the first time and it was an excellent experience. They had the floor to ceiling garage door open to the patio for a very nice indoor/outdoor fall evening setting. Our lovely server, Katie, was really nice and had very good recommendations when we asked. The base menu is obviously fantastic, the pizza is so good it's worth going for by itself, but trying new things their chef comes up with is what it's all about. They had wood fired-glazed carrots on the starter menu that were so good, kind of a twist on the classic steamed carrots with butter and brown sugar that your mom used to make (and I still do at home). Hope they keep those on the menu for sure. We tried the new spaghetti twist with their housemade noodle, shrimp, and a light sauce with a touch of lemon. Loved the noodles, the sauce wasn't for me, but luckily we share and she loved it. Tacking on a happy hour classic pepperoni pizza guaranteed we were taking leftovers home - No complaints about that, either."
"The food was perfectly fine, but nothing that really stood out above other restaurants in the area, especially for the price. We ordered the meatballs which were a bit dry; the bread which was fantastic; the arancini; and the raviolo which I expected to be much more substantial for the $20 price-point, but which ended up being just a single fairly regular sized piece of ravioli. We stopped for second dinner elsewhere afterwards before going home. For the value and portion sizes, I wouldn’t return."
"Delicious! The food was flavorful and unique. We had the calamari, sangria, espresso, Salsiccia pizza, Pesto alla Menta, chai gelato, and tiramisu. All came out perfect and very friendly staff! 😃"
