My favorite restaurant in Evanston. The food is amazing and the proportions are extremely generous, which helps to justify the higher price points. Outdoor seating for COVID was excellent and frequently there is a musician singing and playing acoustic guitar which makes the atmosphere fantastic. I would recommend this as a great date spot and as a nice meal for a family.
Very good. Wife had zuppa de pesce which we enjoyed. Salad with apples, grapes, walnuts and blue cheese was delicious! I had bolognese which was good, but my only complaint was the pasta was overcooked. I much prefer al dente. Overall a very good meal, friendly staff and I will definitely return!
Thanks to the outdoor cafe seating, a colleague and I met for lunch on a Friday. The new owner regaled us with stories about his culinary expertise and adventures and was most hospitable . We ordered several items on the menu (all delicious) and were advised on the best wine pairings. How lucky we are to have such a quaint authentic place to meet friends!
