Absolutely stunning! One of the best Italian restaurants in town.
We tried whipped Riccota, Cacio pepe and Lemon shrimp tagliolini. All three dishes were just outstanding! It was so delicious that it reminded us of meals we had in Italy.
All the drinks we had were fresh and unique!
We had a fantastic time! It’s a great place for a date.

Absolutely amazing, the truffle cacio e pepe, the short rib ravioli and the tiramisu martini are must try. Everything is super flavorful, service was attentive and quick. Love the aesthetics and the 80s music! Great place for date night!

I had heard great things about this place and was really excited to try it, but unfortunately the food and service were both disappointing. The fried calamari tasted old, lacked flavor, and was so rubbery it was honestly shocking they would serve it. The burrata was below average and clearly not fresh, and the prosciutto on the burrata was hard and tasted stale. The drinks were equally underwhelming. They seemed rushed and overly watered down, both in appearance and taste. They also set up what they called a “speakeasy” in a makeshift back room to fit more tables, but it was obviously just a random storage-like space repurposed for extra seating, which was very crammed. Overall, the experience was pretty disappointing.

I left this place feeling like I got pranked into overpaying for food and tolerating bad service. The only reason this review is a 2 star instead of a one star is that the drinks are great and the food is good (do I think it matches the price? no, but tasty all the same). I’ve been to this restaurant 3 times, and I will never be going back. To pay the kind of money I paid (~$400-450) and have a rude, inattentive, snide waiter is crazy. He was rude off the jump and I can’t imagine why. At first we were all gracious- maybe he had just had a bad interaction and needed to walk it off. However every time he came to our table, there was always a snide comment or side eye. If you’re planning on having an expensive dinner and you’re expecting the dining experience/service to match, don’t come here.
Give these people all your money!
