    I found the restaurant very inviting on a chilly February Sunday. The bar area was filled with guests, and the table areas very nicely arranged. Our waiter was very good, Mike, attentive and cordial. We had salads, appetizer, fish special, veal and pasta. The dinners were delicious. I think it has just become my favorite Little Italy restaurant.

    Came in from out of town from Chicago and happily discovered this gem. Busy Sunday as they were short handed but very well attended to by Amanda our bartender. Love eating at the bar. Great wine options and food delish.

    Been to Little Italy many times and this was our first visit and we will most definitely return. Everyone was so friendly and the restaurant is cozy. Our waiter was polite and super courteous going over the specials and recommendations. We got a special of buffalo mozzarella with marinated tomatoes. It was super fresh and a fantastic appetizer. My husband had the squid ink pasta and mussels special and he absolutely loved it! My go to is always veal and this was smothered in fresh mushrooms and a cream sauce. Thanks for a great evening out!
