This was our first time here and our experience was amazing. From the hope the buses and server everyone was amazing. It's very attentive and continuously checking on you. And the food was amazing. Highly recommend the butternut squash Ravioli. My kids got the penne mango and that was delicious as well. For dessert, they had the chocolate fudge cake and the chocolate mousse and those were both delicious as well. Highly recommend this place. We will be going back.

Stopped in for an impromptu lunch. Was immediately seated and was tended to by the gracious waitress. Meal arrived quickly despite being busy with guest and take out. Great service and flavors were bountiful and succulent.

Cod and salad were good. Steak ordered medium rare came out WELL done. Pasta was one big hard clump that had to be cut up to be eaten. Server not around much. Don't understand the hype.

The recommendations are correct, a wonderful restaurant. 2 person walk-in, quickly seated and well timed service. A seafood focussed night for me starting with grilled octopus followed by salmon Dijon accompanied by house Pinot Grigio and amazing fresh bread. Octopus was perfectly tender and salmon was accompanied by a more than generous portion of mixed vegetables (asparagus, squash, zucchini and carrots). 6 other plates caught my eye- will have to return.

Oct 2025 - Visiting Tucson for the 2nd time to celebrate my wife's birthday after originally visiting in 2022. It was even better than I remember! Original review to follow, but this is place is amazing.
June 2022 - Visiting Tucson for the 1st time and we wanted Italian for dinner. This was the best Italian I've had in a very long time. I wanted chicken parm, which is on the lunch menu, but for some reason isn't on the dinner menu but they made it for me anyway. It was outstanding. My wife had the Penne Positano and she said it was fabulous. We are very happy with our choice and highly recommend this restaurant. I think anyone with a negative review probably had something up their....before walking in.
We just had our second visit on 10/17/25. Still Amazing ! This is a new hot find for us Tucson suburbanites! This place makes it worth driving down to Congress street. The staff was so friendly and the food was simply amazing. From the bruschetta, to the beef carpaccio, to the pasta (incredible puttanesca), to the strong Tiramisu finish, it was all fantastic! We are tried the Polenta Gorgonzola, the Gnocchi Zafferan and the Seafood Pasta Scorpio. All incredible! Lots of cocktail, beer and wine options as well. Try the Antinori Brucat if you like a great and reasonably priced full bodied red wine. We will be back again, with our friends and neighbors! VictorB
Great experience & the most AMAZING food. Make a reservation & enjoy.

First time I tried eating here, I didn't receive service for 20 min even after asking someone and left. Second time, I had their lunch special and was charged the full price. They corrected this, but the service was not very polite. Third time, I received the wrong order and they charged me for something I didn't order. Waitress just handed my bill on the table after paying and didn't say anything. Very very bad service here, shame because their food is good.

Fantastico. Delicious, authentic. Romantic and cosy atmosphere. I especially loved their special that was the saffron lobster gnocchi, hoping they bring it back.
