“What an absolute delight! We stumbled upon this hidden gem of an Italian restaurant, and it truly lived up to its name. From the moment we walked in, the cozy, inviting atmosphere made us feel right at home. We decided to try their pizza, and it was a revelation! The crust was perfectly crispy yet wonderfully chewy, the sauce had that rich, authentic tomato flavor, and the cheese was perfectly melted. I absolutely loved it, and the kids devoured their slices with enthusiastic approval. It’s safe to say it was a hit with the whole family! Beyond the fantastic food, the service was warm and attentive, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. This is definitely a place we'll be coming back to again and again. If you're looking for incredible Italian food in a charming setting, this hidden jewel is a must-visit!”

“We have always had a wonderful experience here. Might I say, we probably go a little too much. Lol. Out of the many times we have been here in the 2 years since they opened, I have had 1 mobile order mess up with the wrong sandwich. I came right back and they more than made up for it. The staff is always so kind, food is fresh and I really love the fun, kid events that they plan and the charitable things they do for our community. Highly recommend!”

“Today I had possibly the best camarones a la diabla of my entire life. It is spicy, smoky, and complex in flavor, unlike the disappointing sweet, ketchup-like sauces I keep finding everywhere else. Casa tequila made my whole day wonderful.”

“This place is a hidden gem. I needed a birthday cake last minute (11/27). I didn't want the standard grocery store cake. I found this bakery on Google. Stopped in and purchased a Tres Leche cake. It was a beautiful cake and we all devoured it on Thanksgiving. It was absolutely amazing. I also purchased jalapeño bread, pastries and bread budding. Everything was wonderful. The bread pudding was the best that I have ever had. The young man and woman that were in the bakery were extremely pleasant. I highly recommend this bakery.”
