    The food was very good and the service just as good. It was a very quiet weeknight so not that many people in the restaurant. The waitress and server were extremely friendly. I would definitely recommend.

    Amazing experience! I took my boyfriend here for his 30th birthday last night and booked an igloo, not knowing exactly what to expect since I had only discovered this place through TikTok’s glowing reviews. From the moment we arrived, the aesthetic gave off major Little Italy vibes—charming, cozy, and rustic, which is exactly our style. Not to mention we were greeted with smiling faces when we first walked it! Everyone was so nice, and friendly which made it so welcoming off the bat. The igloo itself was incredible—beautifully lit, spacious enough to fit up to 10 people, and provided the perfect level of privacy. Our server was exceptionally attentive and sweet, making the experience even more special. And the food? Absolutely out of this world! The portions were huge, and every bite was delicious. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations, and we’ll definitely be back
