My wife and I landed here from a Google Maps search on our way out of Harrisburg, PA, and we were blown away. I can rarely say this about a restaurant, but this reminded me in the very best ways of a home cooked meal made by Grandma. Fresh pasta made on site. I had lasagna, and my wife had the papparadelle covered by a luscious oxtail ragu. In my mind, perfect lasagna means no one ingredient stands out, but you get a satisfying marriage of ricotta, Italian sausage, lasagna noodles, house meat sauce, and melted cheese. Plus, it came out bubbling, critical in my view. The bread and hot chili sauce for dipping is a great opener to the meal. You will not be disappointed.

Best Italian I've had in a long time. Fresh homemade pasta daily. Fresh ingredients. Second visit food was as good as the first visit. This time there were half a dozen freshly baked focaccia breads cooling on the window sill. The focaccia is served as a base for bruschetta that is quite delicious. The small open kitchen is cool as you can watch the staff in action. The staff is very attentive and quite pleasant to talk with.

Food was tasty, noodles made in house, but portions are on the small side. Friendly staff.

Great homemade pasta. Reasonable prices. Squid ink pasta with shrimp and homemade meatballs with garlic bread were very good. There was no AC when we went so it was pretty warm inside on a summer day.

Don't get takeout from here, especially via a delivery service. They are incredibly slow. They miss delivery windows consistently by 30-40 minutes and their estimates of time for drivers and delivery people is far, far off, compared to every other restaurant in the area. The food is good. The service is good. But it's too slow to recommend.

My wife and I stumbled upon this place on a visit to Harrisburg. Fresh homemade pasta at reasonable prices. What's not to like? I had the squid ink fettuccine with shrimp and my wife had the spaghetti bolognese. Both were delicious.

Great food, wonderful service. We chose to eat outside. There’s a couple tables on the sidewalk in Midtown Harrisburg. The food is great. We had 2 of their Mac and cheese selections. I had the crab and shrimp, my girlfriend had the bulgogi Mac and cheese. Both excellent with completely different flavors.

Simple little restaurant in downtown Harrisburg serving fresh pasta made daily. I had the Italian wedding soup, which was different from traditional as you got large cut up meatballs. The flavor was good, but meatballs were very garlicky. The meat ragu had a bit too much pepper for a traditional ragu. The pasta was very fresh with reasonable servings. The coffee latte, I would go back for just that. Very pleasant staff! I would return to try a different meal
Came here unplanned and without reservations on a Saturday afternoon. It was completely booked, but they were nice enough to seat me as it was before the dinner rush and there were a few open tables. I was by myself so they accommodated me. I appreciated the customer service.
Started off with some bread before ordering the Squid Ink Fettuccine with Shrimp. Food came out after about 10 minutes and was definitely made fresh to order. Could taste the homemade pasta through the sauce. Was a good sized serving with plenty of shrimp.
Great food with outstanding service.

The majority of our group loved our food. A couple hated theirs. I got the squid ink pasta, which was incredible. One employee who helped us was quite brusque, but the other was amazing and very accommodating. The place smelled very strongly of cigarettes. So it was a mixed bag of excellence and things to improve upon.
