Loved the atmosphere, very warm and welcoming. Staff was excellent. Sat outside while seranaded by a live musician who i assume was the owner. We were close enough to overhear at least half a dozen people chat with him in Italian while we were there - a good sign IMO! Food was alittle pricey but that seems to be everywhere you go these days. I had a seafood risotto that was great. Will be back to try the Woodfired pizza next time which looked fabulous.

The food and service were great! The meatballs were excellent and the best I've ever had. This was my first time going here, but I will be back. The owner was very friendly and attentive.

My boyfriend and I stopped in for late lunch. The food was delicious. I had soup and shrimp risotto, and my boyfriend had 3 meat pizza.
My only disappointment was no bacardi rum for cocktail. Otherwise, it was a great dining experience!
