Wonderful spot! My wife and I stopped in for dinner and could not have asked for a better experience. The service was fast, staff were nice, and the food was delicious. You’ll see the window of people eating but if you’re not careful, you’ll completely miss the door. The restaurant is small but open with 15-20 tables. We didn’t see a theme regarding any sort of dress code. We ordered the Polpette (meatballs), Caesar Salad, Carbonara, and the Bucatini with Short Rib (special). The meatballs were large and delicious. The sauce they were sitting in was also very good. The Caesar Salad was large and actually came with anchovies. The dressing was fantastic. The Carbonara was phenomenal. REAL, made with egg and guanciale. The sauce was perfect and had plenty of pork in it. The Bucatini with Short Rib was also very good. A bit salty but after a bite of the carbonara, it was a welcomed change up. The short rib was tender and gave even more richness to the sauce. With fresh pasta and fair prices, this place is a no brainer. You NEED to give it a shot if you haven’t already been.

A great experience! Authentic and tasty food with super nice service. Can’t recommend enough if you are looking for a low key restaurant with incredible quality. House wine always hits. Homemade pasta makes a tremendous difference.

THIS WAS SO GOOD!! went here for a date and the pasta was so perfectly cooked and the sauce was sooo creamy and yummy. chicken was also perfectly cooked and marinated. I’m in love. Cannoli’s were so crispy and sweet and the filling was so fluffy. 10/10 ambience was cute especially for a first date.

Food was great. Ordered the Caesar salad to start, the short rib ravioli, and a fettuccine bolognese with a couple modifications. The Caesar was good, nice portion. Both dishes were delicious at time of service and as leftovers the next day. Service was ok. Everyone was very friendly but inattentive at times, especially as the dinner rush slowed. Not sure what the dessert options are as we were never offered. Would still recommend giving this place a try.
