Very nice spot for pasta. Had a good time and would be happy to return again. Ambience and jazz music playing in the background was a plus.

This Italian restaurant is an absolute gem — hands down one of the most authentic Sicilian spots I’ve ever visited. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed like family. The chef and owner couldn’t be friendlier; his passion for food and hospitality shines through in every detail.

Every dish feels like a love letter to Sicily — bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and made with genuine care. But the real surprise? The pumpkin tiramisu. A truly unique creation that perfectly balances tradition with creativity. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever tasted — light, creamy, and simply unforgettable.

If I could give this place more than 10 stars, I would. It’s that special. Authentic, warm, and absolutely exquisite from start to finish.

Went here on a whim because I really wanted pasta. WOW what a hidden gem! We went at 8:30pm on a Wednesday and the food was SO good. Amazing if you want perfectly cooked pasta and delicious sauce!

Tonight we started with bruschettas, followed by ravioli di carne and pappardelle pasta. I can’t put into words how amazing the dinner was. We almost skipped dessert, but our wonderful server suggested we try the tiramisu or panna cotta. We chose the panna cotta, and to our surprise, he also brought us a taste of the tiramisu.

We had an incredible experience at this place—delicious food, excellent service, and such a thoughtful touch at the end of the meal. Highly recommended!

We had their Caesar salad which was solid and classic in flavor. the caprese was light and delicious. we were recommended to try their melted goat cheese which I’m so glad we did. The slight sourness of the goat cheese worked well with the pomodoro sauce and we crushed it all. For the mains we split four pastas. All of these pastas were fresh and packed with flavor, I’ll start with my favorite one, the Frutti di Mare had clams, shrimp, scallops and mussels, this pasta was the premier example of the frutti di mare in terms of flavor. Ravioli Puttanesca was tasty, and had some mediterranean influences with the kalamata olives and oregano. Pappalina was ultra creamy and these tortellacci were filled with beef and veal, very comforting to say the least. My second favorite pasta was the Gnocchi alla Gorgonzola. This combo took me back to Sorrento which was the last time I had a dish similar to this flavor profile. For dessert, you can’t go wrong with a cannoli, but we had to investigate their tiramisu which had that delicate coffee flavor and smooth in texture.

One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in recent memory! Daniel welcomed me and my niece into his restaurant like family. Everything we ate was exceptional. Highly recommend the ravioli, spaghetti arrabbiata, and the Caesar salad. Everything is homemade and based on Daniel’s Grandmother’s recipes from Sicily. A picture of her hangs on the wall between the dining room and kitchen. We almost skipped dessert…but opted at the last minute to order the cannoli. So glad we did! Truly, the best cannoli I’ve ever had. Grazie mille, Daniel! We will be back again soon:)

The older bald man that was at the counter when I came to pick up was soooo rude i don’t know if he was the owner or manager . I’ve never been talked to in such a rude manner. Anywhere I go i always treat and talk with everyone with respect. When I had asked him about how long for the order he proceeded to answer rude and upset as if I was an inconvenience. I just had to walk out because I will not support a business that allows its employees or an owner to talk to a woman like that. I’m disgusted by the whole encounter. I definitely will be letting my friends and family to know to avoid this place.
