Great food and pastries. Rude people serving at counter (not waiters or waitresses), with horrible service.

Meh…. Underwhelming… Zero customer appreciation. Server (male) was a bit rude.

Just don't... unless you just want cocktails. The hostess was snarky but our waiter was very pleasant so the service rating is hard to pin down for us. The food, however, is hands down NOT authentic Italian. Bruschetta had a ton of raw garlic that made it literally inedible....and I am a an Italian that leans toward being heavy handed with garlic when I cook. The arancini itself was passable but the sauce they served with it tasted almost exactly like Campbell's tomato soup with added dry basil....and it sadly covered the plate so impacted the overall taste. We had planned to order more but the appetizers we ordered are basics and were significant fails so we bailed. Italian food is about fresh flavors and subtle seasonings but there was none of that here. I will say the bloody Mary and aperol spritz we had were VERY well made. By all means...grab a cocktail and enjoy...then pick another place to eat.

Came here with my dog and accidentally forgot his harness for the leash. It was busy so I was a single diner. The 2 hostess were absolutely friendly. My server who has curly hair and about 5”4 told me she can’t serve me outside because he wasn’t on a leash. I told her I would hold my dog and she made up a blatant lie about it being similar to no shirt and no shoes service. Love the food but this server has no hospitality in her blood. She has no passion for the restaurant industry

There were two large groups with one waiter. It was about 10 minutes before the waiter came over to greet us. I felt rushed to order. We ordered the bruschetta, gnocchi and pesto, chicken parmigiana, and margarita pizza with Italian sodas. The Italian sodas and gnocchi were amazing! The pizza tastes like Peter Piper Pizza and chicken parched sauce was extremely sweet like chef boyardee! I have been wanting to eat here for a long time and was overall very disappointed!
Our server, Mariano was absolutely perfect. So friendly. Very attentive for our large party of eight.  Food was very good. Would definitely go back. 
Both coffee and deserts are delicious

Staff was very friendly and attentive. Good was amazing! Large portions and great flavors. Highly recommend the tortelloni funghi and chicken parm. Sidewalk seating was a great atmosphere.
Lovely Italian spot in little Italy. The pizza was really really good. Fresh stuff like mushrooms added. 4.5 stars because the pizza dough could be a bit thinner.
The rest is awesome. Thanks for the lovely service.

Caprese Salad was not good; tomatoes had no flavor at all. Lasagna was too soupy & cold in the middle
My family and I were visiting from Australia and found this place randomly on our walk through Little Italy. I loved the authentic feel so we decided to eat there. We were not disappointed. The pizza and pasta was delicious. My grandparents are Italian and I have been to Italy and that was as authentic as it gets. The service by our waitress was wonderful too. We took home some deserts and they were so delicious too.

Fantastic experience. Homemade Italian at its best. Hard to find authentic Italian dishes and sauces! We had a great time and finished with Gelato which was excellent.
