Homemade chicken meatballs is my favorite. Might be able to skip the entree and stick to this appetizer.

This restaurant (not a cafe) *used* to be a real great place to eat but the quality has significantly declined and our last experience was dreadful. The mozzarella in the appetizer order was tasteless and subpar - for $30! The grilled vegetable entree was without any discerning flavor- unseasoned and served cold. The vegetarian lasagne was deflated and overcooked, yet served lukewarm. The soup was decent but for $30 it was a ripoff. True story the owner had sat down at the table next to us and looked completely miserable and checked out as if he didn't want to be there at all - that told us all we needed to know.

The squash blossoms were amazing and so fresh and clean tasting. Eggplant Parmesan appetizer, sweet and full of flavor. The rigatoni à la vodka had an underlying tone that is a outstanding addition to the overall profile of the dish. The clams with linguine again absolutely perfect. all of the flavor profiles could only be skillfully executed by a MasterChef The tartufo was the best I’ve ever had. additionally, the weight staff was attentive and friendly. we also enjoyed two perfectly prepared old fashions with Woodford reserve

Tasty Italian food with a variety of menu options, attentive service, and a refined atmosphere. Definitely a good place to impress a date. The prices are quite high relative to portion sizes tho. You pay for the atmosphere I suppose.

We had the loveliest summer evening at this restaurant. Blue loved it because he could observe the world passing by from his “balcony” and I loved it because they serve amazing homemade gluten free fettuccine! The clams pasta was amazing and the gavi white wine was the right choice to go with it.
