    Wonderful from start to finish. New filet crostini and tuna crudo were outstanding. The tuna was explosive with hot chilies. The filet was so tender and marinated. Main was saffron fettuccine with mussels and excellent sauce. Chocolate gelato and espresso to close it out. Everything was A+.

    Had an excellent dinner and time. A very welcome addition to our neighborhood dining scene. Will definitely be back, and planning to bring two large groups in the near future.

    All good until we got rushed after eating dessert and finishing wine. Went to bathroom only to come back and find out table cleared and wine bottles gone.

    Wow, I feel like I discovered a gem! It was our first time there, on a date night. Sam, our server, was perfect: attentive, helpful and just a nice guy - homemade pasta was another level - pappardelle was fabulous! Kale salad and tuna crudo were on point too. We would def go back!

    Amazing pork chops, a great salad, with excellent service. Water glass was kept full, plates were taken away and table was cleaned in between appetizers and entrees. Nice vibe in the restaurant. Would recommend to anyone looking for great food and service with a nice atmosphere!
