Excellent!!! Great service, great location and ambiance. The previous Italian place here was awful, think COVID really did a number on it. Happy to see something great here since we are local.

Service was 10/10 and super cute inside!The food was eh! Could've had more flavor and the prices were kind of outrageous. We ordered shrimp and crab, stuffed mushrooms, 5 for $18... and couldn't even taste or see shrimp or crab in them. The pasta was a little watery and flavorless. The pizza was good! The bartender John was amazing and super friendly! We would probably only come back for drinks and maybe a pizza.

We've been twice. The first was four out of five stars. She had pizza and I had pasta.The second time wasn't very good at all. She had a margarita pizza and there was no detectable Basil. I had an Italian sandwich. My first was "they tried this sandwich and kept it on the menu?"The bread to filling ratio was all wrong. There was too much bread and it was too dense for the little bit of filling I believe it was missing some peppers that were mentioned on the description. Dry bread, meat and some cheese isn't my idea of a quality Italian sandwich. We'll probably be back, but know what not to order. A big disappointment.

First time to this restaurant, and we went on a Friday night at 6 o'clock. We had a 20 minute wait for a table which was communicated immediately and we gave our phone number so they kept in touch by text. We were surprised to find that we were seated upstairs in a second dining room. There were quite a few steps to get up, which was not a big deal for us, but could be if anyone had mobility issues. Our server Luke could not have been a nicer guy! We started with a drink and goat cheese, stuffed figs, wrapped in bacon and drizzled with honey. So delicious and beautifully presented. We shared the ravioli entree, and left feeling full and satisfied. The music playing was traditional Italian restaurant music, which added to the ambiance. If I had one complaint, it would be that the parking is not simple in downtown Mount Airy. It is free parking but not super convenient to the center of town. But the downtown area is well-lit and feels safe and maintained. This restaurant is a must-try! I'll be back!!

We have been really looking forward to this place opening, and we hope they improve and succeed. But I have never been to an Italian restaurant where none of the staff could pronounce the names of basic Italian dishes. Bruschetta was $12 and included 2 slices of tomato... and that bread?? Come on.

They certainly put a lot of effort into the remodel. Serving staff were friendly and attentive. The pizza might be acceptable if it was a school cafeteria or a prison. This is supposed to be wood fired pizza. The crust has a premade look and texture to it. Almost like school fundraiser pizza. The sauce tastes like sugary oregano tomato paste. The cheese is like a plastic shell holding it all together.There's a saying.. "Pizza is like sex. Even when it's bad it's good". Somehow this place pushes that theory to its breaking point

Oh the regions of Italy rejoice. Those regions no one has traveled, where the farms in the foot hills of the mountains are filled with love as the wives pick the freshly ripened frozen seafood raviolis from the vine while they await their husbands return from the harvest of only the finest pre cooked pizza dough. Cheese, the cheese, so robust it doesnt melt over the icy cold crust, like the soul of mother Mary. Bolognese...no salt, only sugar, decorates a moment in time where tomatoes were picked before they were ripe...taken like the smiles of a newborn child. It's only in these parts of Italy where the lion of food spreads balsamic on plates, next to a connected cup of oil, so unfunctional that it must be decoded be DaVinci himself. This is true italian heritage. The bruschetta...white toast, beautifully under-and-over cooked like Columbus imagined, splashed with basil as brown as the olive fields-beautifully complimented by the cheese of plastic, invoking memories of a childhood lost in a basement to an ill willed soldier high on vesouviois ash and precisely cooked pasta. The pasta, mama Angelea weeps as she chews vigorously through the dense, gummy texture, like strands of clay reminiscent of the tobacco fields I've grown to love as an elder. Pasta nestled neatly in the beautifully opened cans laced with sugar of the finest burlap sacks. Local quail, shot directly by the chefs on the streets of Mount Airy-succulent and hearty- like the wooden spoon of a long lost time. The burratta, placed gently on the expertly pre sliced proscuitto screams decadence, paired neatly next to the perfectly aged wilted salad. Tonight I lay my head, dreaming vigorously of the days gone by, remembering my nonna cracking open a can of ragu, pouring it with care over hot dogs and heating up an elios pizza. I sleep well tonight with those memories thanks to Tony Pazzo.

Delicious food. Great service. Calm and friendly vibe with cool lighting. Lots of options.

Long story short, Great service great ambiance. They did a good job with the remodel. However, food is o.k and the prices are high across the board for what you get. Want to love the place because the staff is great and the owner puts in a lot of work. But i can't justify the price for what you get.Pizza is pretty good. But again. Pricy for a 12" pie.

Amazing lunch and even better service. Jan made our first time here exceptional. Her suggestion of the pesto pizza with chicken was one of the best I've ever had. We finished off our meal with a cannoli and the homemade filling with orange zest was perfection! Will be back soon - a definite stop in downtown Mount Airy!
