If you’re looking for some authentic Italian food then this is for you! Owners are Italian, they are very friendly and knowledgeable of what they’re serving. Everything was delicious and fresh, Service was outstanding and they have outdoor seating as well, I always come here once a month!!

The service was good—friendly and attentive staff throughout the experience. I tried the fish branzino and veal scaloppini, which were both just okay. While they were prepared well, the flavor didn't quite stand out for me. The other food options I saw on the menu and in pictures looked much more appealing, so I’ll definitely be returning to try something different next time! Pricewisw count $70 per person for a main course and a coktail with tips and taxes.

On a whim, we picked cafe epicure for a luncheon.
We started with a selection of salumeria meats and cheese.
We were not disappointed, the buratta was mouth watering and tasteful. We went for speck and mortadella for the meats. Perfect trio. The bread consisted of whole wheat olive and slices of Italian. This came with a compote of Kalamata olives. I enjoyed this too.
For entrees my wife had chicken parm and I had salmon with a sautéed spinach accompanied...
