“Seated immediately, greeted promptly and politely. Beverages were out quickly. The place is beautifully decorated. The ambiance is rustic Italian and romantic, yet still appropriate for a table full of family or friends. The servers are knowledgeable, their assistants are right there with refills or clearing an empty plate. Congratulations to the owner! You run a well-oiled machine...Grazie molto, avete fato la nostra ocasione speciale!! We will definitely be back for more celebrations.“

“Very good seasonal food. Had great shrimp and grits. Went on mothers day and food was still coming out on time with a fully packed house. A little noisy and a lack of available parking, but probably due to holiday. Would definitely go again; cute three dollar desserts were a fun ending.Dietary restrictions: Gf menu available.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu“

“I’m a Long Grove resident and widower. It’s great to be able to enjoy a very tasty Italian dish as a take out. Chicken Vessuvio, Chicken cacciatore are excellent dishes I have enjoyed. The owner and staff are friendly and professional. The kitchen staff are obviously dedicated and hard working.“

Since it's right downtown Wauconda, there are plenty of food options nearby.There's also a good wine club membership that offers monthly wine selections and access to special events.Love this place.“

“Love this place! I'd been there a few times when they had igloos set up outside and enjoyed it and then most recently for a moms' night. The GM and owner were great and so responsive during planning and the servers were excellent, patient, and helped us have a relaxing night (not rushing or pushing us out). The drinks and food are always delicious. Will definitely be back!“

“My favorite place for wine tasting and lunch is so good and tasty“

“Matt, the owner, is a personable and knowledgeable individual who runs a beautiful establishment that offers a unique blend of old world culture and language. The server, Brandon, is respectful and efficient, making the experience enjoyable. The restaurant serves a variety of dishes, including lobster bisque, Caesar salad, steak tip sandwich, shrimp cocktail appetizer, and chocolate crusted ice cream. The bathrooms and kitchen are spotless, and the decor is eclectic, reminiscent of Italy, Spain, Greece, or Armenia. Some patrons may be clueless about the style, but the establishment is an Iconoclastic destination that would make a habit or tradition. The only downside is the lack of a nice cot for napping after a delicious meal. Overall, this establishment is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience the rich history and culture of the old world.“

“Service was great . The staff is very attentive and friendly. The food was delicious.“

Everything was absolutely perfect. When you go, ask for him as a server!“
