   The service and the staff were excellent! We were constantly being greeted and checked on, and the staff was very friendly. The ambiance was beautiful and the food was exceptional and not heavy in our stomachs. Loved it!

   Wow. The food was very, VERY good. I love how the menu was laid out because you're able to pair the pasta with sauces, to which I was very unorthodox and paired gnocchi with a red beef sauce, almost like a ragout. I tried 3 of the desserts: panna cotta, a layered pastry with ricotta and berries, and also the cheesecake. My favorite was the cheesecake. I also recommend when ordering drinks, if you are adventurous, try the Sicilian Mule. The owners were present and very caring about operations. I can see the chefs working in the kitchen through a glass separation, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. I had a wonderful experience and will be back. P.S. The flatbread was sooooo good: right amount of warmth, chewiness, and outside was just slightly toasty. Very comforting.

   Funky old Gaston garage with an affordable fantastic Italian market. The staff obviously love their job here, work together seamlessly and with humor and knowledge to ensure a great dining experience. Seafood and meat specials fresh and creative- homemade regular and gluten free pastas sauces and add ons to meet everyone’s desires- same with the wood oven pizzas and garlic focaccias! Great drinks beers and an exquisite wine list

   This was our first visit, and we left hoping it would as not our last. Simply, the food is terrific, fresh and perfectly prepared. We enjoyed the pizza, bruschetta and two different salads. All exceeded expectations. We then purchased a few items at the import market. We are only visiting for the week, but hoping to return in later this week.

   We absolutely love coming to this Italian restaurant! The food is consistently outstanding, and the service is top-notch. The Angela pizza was incredible. It had perfectly crispy crust with just the right balance of flavors. The beet salad was fresh and delicious, and the Chianti Classico paired beautifully with everything. The meatballs were some of the best we’ve ever had. They were tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. A special shoutout to Giuseppe, who did a phenomenal job taking care of us. His energy and attentiveness made our experience even better. The location is wonderful, and we always leave looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!

    I have gluten and egg allergies. The gf (and vegan) focacci bread and pizza crusts are by far the best I have ever had anywhere! I wish I could take some home (east coast) with me. Thank you!
