The food is SO GOOD!We came around 5:30pm on a Thursday, and there was no wait.The service was excellent and the food was amazing! Our eyes were bigger than our stomach, so we ordered more than enough food, but we had no regret!Highly recommend the bolognese pappardelle! Do not think of this pasta as of the regular bolognese pasta! It is not a red sauce based but cooked with a 200-year old family recipe! White sauce with ground meat and peas. It was divine! I would definitely order it again and again!The fungi pizza was also delicious! Came with six good sized slices. I loved the mixed mushrooms and the cheese! Good to share or enjoy on your own!Please do note that the restaurant serves pesto bread when you sit down. Be mindful of the large amount of food if you are not hungry hungry. We came hungry (normal hungry haha) but an anti plus two entrees filled us up quick, and we had to take about half of our food home.Three items plus two drinks came to be around $110 with taxes and tips. Given the quality and amount of food, it was well worth it! We will definitely come back!Oh so yes it is cash only. Bring cash or use the ATM inside :)Parking: Private lot at the street mall.

I’ve been here 5+ times now and it is my my favorite Napoli-style pizza in HB. Hands down.It’s light, well balanced and sooo tasty.Unlike many other pizzas that are super loaded and greasy, this is the opposite.Quality ingredients you can ACTUALLY TASTE!Service has been outstanding every time I’ve gone.The one time my order ran late (a take out pizza) due to a weekend dinner rush and a wood fire over naturally taking longer, they gifted me a free second pie for having waited for merely 20 mins.Super delicious, quality and kind service.What more can you ask for? ?‍♂️And YES, it is cash only, but trust me when I say that if that’s the reason you’re not going, you’re a fool. $3 charge on the ATM they have inside will make no difference to your experience, and you will come away thanking me.Please keep up the great work!Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp directly in the front

Tried this Italian restaurant last night with family and it was great! It is Southern Italian food with the spice you would expect. The Bolognese pasta was incredible and different than your traditional red sauce you get at most restaurants here. We also shared a couple pizzas and the braised pork. Can't wait to go back and try more!

This pasta blew me away! The server gave me the best suggestions on the menu. We got the mushroom pizza and two different pastas. Portions we huge, great to share. I forgot our servers name but they were amazing!

My husband surprised me on Valentines and took me to Bollini's. A friend of his suggested this new Italian restaurant. We were seated, the restaurant was full. Our server came to our table to get our drink order. My husband ordered ice tea. I am not very familiar with Italian wines so I asked if she had a suggestion for the wine. She said they have not been trained on the wines but she will have the manger come by and suggest a wine. We ordered a Cesar salad. Needless to say no one ever came by to suggest any wine. We sat there for a good forty minutes. No ice tea no wine and no salad. Finally our server came by we asked for the ice tea we ordered and she informed us the Dr Pepper and Ice tea were mixed and they were not serving ice tea. I ordered a house glass of wine. Finally our salad came out, it was ok nothing to brag about. Again no wine we ordered our food I ordered spicy sausage and pasta, it was greasy but had good flavor. My husband ordered a cream pasta it was good but not amazing. When our dinner was delivered the server realized that my wine was never brought to me. She said she would bring it to me but I declined. Doubt we will be back service bad and not the best Italian food. Hopefully service and food will get better or they will not be in business much longer. After reading some of the reviews I don't think the owner really cares about the reviews. Read a few before visiting this establishment

The complementary bread was so delicious! And the New York pizza was also every delicious the only down sides were not much drink options and the water tasted so gross and there was no ranch but the restroom smelled nice and it was clean

I'm always looking for a great pizza with Ricotta. The New York Pizza is the answer! Perfectly cooked, curled pepperoni from the scorching oven, chunks of Italian sausage, and dollops of heavenly Ricotta top their tasty red sauce and dough. This would be here more often if we lived closer. Loved the inside ambiance and their copper pizza oven was spectacular. Staff were very friendly and accommodating since the pizza took a couple minutes more than expected. They are cash only, so bring them dollars! It's worth it!

Girls night out for dinner tonight with my bf's daughter I found this place off Yelp because her favorite foods are pizza and pasta. After looking over their menu online I wanted to try the wood fire pizza here, and also an Italian place that makes their own pastas. I didn't have room in my tummy for both so I went with their pizza this time and got their fungi pizza, which was quite delicious. After looking over the reviews I'm glad I did. This to me is a straight up pizza place. They serve steak and what not but you don't go to a pizza place to order steak. If you want anything else, I'd say err on the side of caution and just stick with their pizzas. Anyway, going back to dinner with bf's daughter: Me: yeah, we're ready to order. Her (to me): oh, but I have a question Me: well, of course ask your question before we order Her (turning to ask our Anderson Cooper-esque server named David): I have a question. Is there such thing here as extra pepperoni? David: of course there is. we just push the button twice Her (biggest wide-eyed, cheesy grin across her face): Him (bringing the pizza out): I've never seen so much pepperoni on a pizza before Her (while eating her first slice): this is THE best pizza I've ever had Also her, before we asked for boxes for our pizzas (dousing her pizza in table Parmesan) Me: ack, don't do that. you only put Parmesan on the pizza slice you're eating Her: it's okay, it's my pizza, I ordered it. :) Cash only. Parking was not bad in the strip mall it's located in. Just be beware of the steep dip coming out of the lot. My car isn't even lowered but I have to slow down to avoid it scratching the front fender on exiting or entering. I begrudgingly ordered their agave vanilla cream soda after seeing they didn't just have some good old Coca Cola to go with my pizza and didn't want to try their unknown cola. David said I can try the cream soda and would bring me something else if it wasn't to my liking. He made good on that and came back to check if it was satisfactory soon after. The cream soda was a nice alternative to the high fructose soda I'm used to with my pizzas, so I stuck with it, and enjoyed it. Would've been nice to get another but by the time my meal was over and he asked if I wanted a refill, I was full. Be prepared for a little wait outside, at least on a Saturday night, as seating is limited - service was spotty after our order came out because I never saw our server again until our meal was over because he was busy at other tables. I told David I was bummed we didn't try their bread because I had found this place off Yelp and he told me they were understaffed tonight and some tables weren't able to get bread, but went to the back to check and packed up a small container of their table bread to go with our pizzas to go, along with their house sauce that goes with that bread (also on the table, in a rounded container by the table Parmesan and pepper flakes). It's full of spices and spicy, but wasn't my jive when we hurriedly got home to try to it. The bread alone was pretty good regardless, and would probably be better warmed (we were impatient). Service was a little spotty, but David was nice and more than made up for it with his personality. I'd prefer to give my business to mom and pop shops like this and will be back when I'm in the mood for pizza, although I'm reluctant because I'm not one to enjoy waiting.

Not gonna lie, the mixed reviews about service and overly salted food almost made me not try this place. I called in a to go order and was reminded of the cash only policy. Yes, there's an ATM inside for a fee. My bank's ATM is literally on the way so I stopped for a quick 60 bucks and proceeded to pick up one of the best Italian meals I've had in HB. Ask for the pesto bread! Trust me on this. It's only $2.50 and is worth every penny! Mushroom ravioli appetizer was phenomenal. Creamy sauce, possibly Marsala? And plenty of mushrooms. Heavenly! I opted for the New York pizza. It was hard to choose, but I was completely satisfied with my choice. I drizzled a little hot honey in it and WHOA!!!!!! Pick up service was friendly. Place is small so plan accordingly. Don't pass up this gem!

Came here for the first time tonight. Cute little restaurant with a comfortable casual vibe, nice low lighting, and pleasant music. The bread, arugula salad, and the rigatoni were all fantastic. Service was friendly and informative. We'll be back!
