My boyfriend and I did a pasta tour through north jersey and this was one of our stops it was delicious! I highly recommend for lunch or dinner. The pasta is fresh and the sauces that we tried were so flavorful!

Food and drinks very good. You can bring wine but there is a corkage fee. Atmosphere was nice and we wweren't rushed. Definitely going back. Parking is limited to the local streets.
