Great dinner tonight! The trout piccata was fantastic. I highly recommend saving room for amoretto cheesecake. ❤️
Just in town from a cruise looking for different things to do and I passed by this place. Absolutely the best walk by ever the smell brought us in but the owners made us stay. We loved everything from the people, drinks, food but especially the cleanliness to the authentic Italian food . it’s a must try if you’re in the area 👍
It was an okay restaurant, but not worth the money we paid. I do recommend the Italian egg rolls. They were fabulous.
