My new favorite spot for pasta! I tried the smoked salmon linguine and it was delicious. They have a wide selection of wine, and the gentleman who waited on us took exceptional care of us. This is a must visit spot if you're looking for exceptional food, service, and a relaxing environment to unwind in!

What a hidden gem 💎 We tried the meatball appetizer, smoke salmon linguini 😋 , lamb ragu, and the chesse ravioli, and it was amazing! The wine selection was outstanding, and the ambiance was friendly and inviting. They even have a small store attached that sales ice cream.

Authentic magical Italian restaurant full of delicious entrees ! Superb service ! Grazie Paul and hard working staff for keeping this Italian gem alive and thriving! Monday night specials are a great value ! I had wine , Meatballs appetizer , chicken picatta pasta entree , mushroom soup , fresh burrata arugula salad , and the brownie and lavender gelato is delicious!
Unfortunately, the pasta and the shrimp were overcooked. Maybe it was just a bad night

The ambiance was warm and inviting, with plenty of indoor plants that added a charming touch. Every dish we tried was packed with authentic flavors and served in generous portions, perfect for one person. There were plenty of vegetarian options to choose from, and the Tiramisu was absolutely delicious!

My phone was dead so I wasn’t able to take any pictures but the food here was amazing!! We had the pappardelle with chicken and garlic cream sauce and the pappardelle with marinara and Italian sausage!! Food was fantastic!! Even the Italian cheese stick was phenomenal!!
Definitely would give 10 stars if I could!! This place from me gets the hood Michelin Star!! If you guys are ever in Decatur, come check out this dimly lit, cute, corner restaurant! You won’t be disappointed.

I’ve been here several times, and the food and service are always impeccable. I had the best cream of mushroom soup in my life here. Beautiful decor and a nice location as well.
A fantastic Italian dinning experience. The place is filled with wonderful decorations that add to the atmosphere and the service is top tier. While we waited to sit we were provided menus and drinks and when we sat we never went more than 5 minutes without being checked on. The food was wonderful and worth every penny. I had a chicken Parmesan which was one of the best I’ve ever had and my girlfriend had chicken pesto ravioli which she enjoyed very much. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone who enjoys good food and wine.
We've eaten here a hand full of times and are always impressed with the food.

Happened upon this place and glad we did! The atmosphere and decor was so charming! We were greeted by a friendly hostess and seated immediately (late lunch, around 2:00 p.m.). Our waitress, Natasha greeted us right away. The bread was served hot and fresh... yum! We ordered a cup of the mushroom soup and entrees were Mushroom Ravioli and Lunguini Bolgenese. All of the food was so good! I would highly recommend!! Excellent service and reasonably priced. Glad we stumbled upon this place.

Absolutely amazing experience!! I reserved the private booth for my boyfriend’s birthday and we absolutely loved it. The service was amazing, they even put a happy birthday sign on our table. We got the pesto fettuccine and 4 cheese ravioli and they were 10/10. The place is absolutely beautiful as well!! Will definitely be coming back as a regular!!
Dietary restrictions: They accommodated to my allergies very well. I can’t have red meat, pork or mushrooms. They also have vegetarian options!
