The Truffle Butter Pasta is the bomb!

Leah

I went here with my crush and it was the perfect night for us to spend together. The food was delicious. We ended up doing the bread, a charcuterie board, and I got the pesto while he got a pizza.
My only frustration was the table size. When we got the first dish, we were already running out of room on our tiny table. We had to keep readjusting a lot to get items to fit. It was supposed to be timed courses, but it all came out pretty close together.
The atmosphere was dark where we were sitting. It was romantic, but definitely difficult to see.
The staff was friendly. It was more of a laid-back group on the night we showed up. I didn't mind this at all since you can tell the group enjoys their workplace.
Overall, it was a great experience. The food was great and it was a sweet ending to my evening.

I love the vibe, food, and staff. I had the lobster ravioli, and it was cooked just right. The bread with balsamic olive oil is heaven for my taste buds.

Terrible service. They used to be quick and efficient, but they are seriously lacking. The last few times we waited 20 minutes for a waiter.

Everything about this place was top notch. The food, amazing, very tasty. A party of 6, we split quite a few small plates and some Pizzas, everything was great. Drinks were fantastic, especially the sangria. Service was absolutely incredible, Tonya was one of the best we've ever had, super fast and friendly service and just the best attitude. We all agreed everything about this place blew us away for our first trip to Corktown. 10 stars!!

Everything 10/10 or probably 100/100. The service food and servers everyone makes this place a great Italian hot spot. I was travelling here in Michigan for 2 days. Just randomly got to know about this place on google.
Must to be ordered bread service. Fresh baked bread with housemaid butter. The best bread had in my life it was so soft and delicious.

Our server Anna was so knowledgeable on her wine recommendations and helped us for food selection. She is friendly and so polite. Truly passionate about what she is doing.

Highly recommended for ur pasta and pizza cravings.

My first time here was not good, we got the broccolini pasta and a pizza. The pasta was oddly spicy and had one big of a piece of broccoli instead of smaller bite sized pieces. It really threw us off. The pizza we did not get well done and the olives on the pepperoni pizza made it soggy. The second time was a lot better we ordered different things, the calamari, the Caprese salad (was amazing), we ordered the pizza well done this time (a must) and the drinks were good especially the frozen basil lemonade (amazing)
