chioppino, went home hungry, no meat, just shells and frozen crab.
Very friendly. Good traditional Italian
The food was fantastic, service was spot on. It was busy for. a Monday evening (so I'd say make reservations), but everything I put in my mouth was delightful! They had Oak Farms wine which is also great. I was in town for work and by myself and had a nice dinner. No dessert (Burrata and pancetta appetizer was my dessert and starter). I desperately wanted to try the family's lemon cello, but I was driving so wine and water it was. Next time if I'm with the hubby!
S9me 9f the best Italian food in the area! Authentic!!
All of our entrees were excellent! Ravioli al Formaggio, lasagne, wild boar, and lamb shank. Calamari was average and small compared to other places that we have had it. The service was excellent! Great place for impressing a date!
I took my wife here for the first time on her birthday. Since she enjoyed it, we went back for Mother's Day. Staff is always nice. Sammy was our waitress again - very nice lady - attentive, friendly, and always professional. Tried their Tiramisu for dessert, for the first time - the chocolate/espresso one (they have many flavors) and it was really good. They have a different and unique “twist” on it but it's fantastic - rich in flavor, light creaminess, and great presentation! Say hello to “Sergio” when you're there - nice guy. We've decided this will be one of our regular “out” places for us.
Probably the best ravioli I ever had! My date's lasagna was also delicious. Service was very friendly and attentive. Prices were also very reasonable. Will be sure to go there again the next time I'm in Sacramento!
I was hoping this would be your local neighborhood Italian restaurant. This wasn't that. Shellfish was not fresh. The piccata sauce was bland. Overall a big disappointment.
Lovely time as usual. Samie & Staff assured our every need and want for Sharon's Birthday. From a warm welcome on arrival through dessert, all wad perfect!
The regular menu had a number of good choices, and there were several interesting daily specials. Everything we tried was delicious. The server was knowledgeable and helpful. The atmosphere was very pleasant.

Having never been there before, I was pleasantly surprised at the restaurant. The capacity for guests is not large, and it was nice to feel relaxed. There were three Birthday folks at our table, they all enjoyed our little celebration party. The food was excellent, and I am a picky eater. The menu was not "run of the mill Italian", a lot of thought went into the recipes. I would definitely go there again.
Excellent dinner, first time going there and definitely won't be the last. Service was top tier and the food was to die for, thank you for a wonderful experience!
From the second you walk in you are welcome with an awesome owner who's funny and charismatic. The food was fantastic. The Veal Marsala was next level and the spaghetti was perfect. Everything was delicious. Definitely found our new goto spot
Excellent food, but the dessert was not good. The service was very good, and we will definitely return to try other dishes.
Food flavor was great, but the noodles in the lasagna was a little over cooked. Luther than that everything was great.
