    Came in wanting to try a couple of dishes on the menu and it did not disappoint. The polipo was crispy, yet soft tender and chewy in the best possible way, the presentation and the perfectly cooked fingerlings were a match made in heaven. All of our mains were incredible, but the filet cacio Pepe was insane! Shoutout Irene for being an incredible server, she perfectly matched our energy at the table and didn’t ever intrude into our experience. My girl is a carb queen and she can’t wait to go back.
