Great Resturant that is a hidden gem, the only thing I would say is stay away from going on a holiday as quality does suffer

Great local Italian. Amazing service, great family style portions. A little on the pricier side for meat dishes but we'll worth the family treat. Great wine lists. Ambiance is great and honestly a great find in SeaCliff. Wasn't expecting that!

This place is so loud you can’t hear yourself think. We requested to be moved to an ( empty) corner table only to be turned down bc it was “reserved for 5” ( we were 4) no attempt to reseat us anywhere else. Then? 15 minutes later, we see a party of 2 seated at the corner table we were told was “reserved for 5”……

First time eating here. Ordered fried calamari to go and it was the worst calamari I have ever encountered. Granted, all fried calamari suffers a little during takeout and can lose its crisp- but I will put good take out fried calamari in the air frier and re-crisp it up and it's always delicious. Unfortunately, the air frier couldn't salvage this. First of all, it REEKED of fish smell.. fried calamari, takeout or not, should never smell fishy. But there was a strong fish odor emanating from the takeout bag containing no other seafood.. it smelled awful. I don't really get how a business that deals with food professionally could allow that fish stinking bag to make its way into a customers hands. Tried it, and thankfully it didn't taste as much like low tide as it smelled.. but it was extremely dry, chewy calamari with soggy, flavorless breading. It's served with a generic mozzarella stick style marinara dip. They don't have a tartar sauce, which is by far a superior sauce for fried calamari. The rest of the food was decent enough.. but I cannot get over that horrendous excuse for calamari.

This is definitely my new go to spot. The food is absolutely incredible. My wife and I stumbled on this place three months ago and I’ve already been there five or six times.
