It's been years since I had been at this restaurant so I was delighted that it remained consistent all these years later. We were welcomed and seated immediately on a not so busy weeknight evening. We were offered bread service immediately, that lovely fresh bread with garlic oil was amazing!! We opted for the bruschetta for an appetizer, it was divine! The baguette was so good, and the tomatoes were fresh and plump! For the main, I ordered the gnocchi with vodka sauce and Italian sausage, while my partner had the Papperdelle dish. Both were fresh and the sauces were cooked well. The prices look scary but we agreed it was great value for money. Our server was great too. The interior has an old style Italian feel. Overall a lovely experience, glad to see this small local business still open.

It is cute, small, lots of regulars, great food, and has good servers. We have been a few times and constant classic italian food.

I took my daughter here for a mommy and daughter date night and I probably should have looked at the menu prices first because this place is pretty expensive! I don't think it was actually as kid friendly as I thought because they didn't have any high chairs or kids booster seats which I knew was a bad sign when I got there. Nonetheless, my 2 year old did pretty good. We arrived during a slow period (you know those early dinners with little kids), but when we finished the place was packed!! She really wanted pesto pasta, which they didn't have, but the chef was happy to make. Ut was bland for me, but my daughter housed it. She wanted ice cream after so we ordered some vanilla gelato, which was really good. Overall, I probably wouldn't take a small child here in the future. I also don't know if I'd come back based on the menu either, it I give this place 4 stars because of how they treated us- super well and accommodating.

The food here is so good! We happened to be in the area and wanted to try a new place. Randomly chose this spot and so glad we did because it was delicious. I ordered the mushroom ravioli and my husband got the gnocchi. Both tasted great, which is why I'll be back to try other dishes! Make sure to make a reservation!! We were lucky enough to get seated with out one on a thurs evening but the folks that arrived after us were turned away because no more seating - it gets quite busy. Nice ambiance and service.

This place was a hole in the wall gem! The inside was so nicely decorated and the food was amazing! The staff was friendly but not too overbearing.

Sorry. I wanted to like this place. It got stars because of the service, but I cant recommend this place for the food. I had the chicken piccata and husband had lasagna. The chicken was not fresh, and the entire plate was not even hot. The noodles were slimy and the chicken was spongy. My husband said the lasagna was delicious, so theres that at least. My stomach ache started about 5 minutes after my last bite and after a tums, it's still going. :( Go next door to the cantina. Save yourself.

Don't let the strip mall vibe fool you. It's a little slice of Italy with cozy ambiance and Italian background music. Raphael will welcome you by name. Food and wine is to die for. We've had many date nights and several family celebrations here. In summer we sometimes like sitting on the charming patio out front with a glass of wine but this little gem of a place is perfect every season. It's like returning to my Italian grandmas dining room each time I go. Buonissimo!

Yes yes yes yes yes! I was recommended this place after having a conservation with a client and so happy they were right! The atmosphere and the just everything was perfect. We are hit in the face with DELICIOUS smells of garlic and fresh pasta! We knew we hit the jackpot! We had the infamous Carbonara and Lasagna and by this, we've decided that there is nothing we could order that we wouldn't like! Can't wait to bring our friends back to enjoy this allllllllllll over again!

We picked up a togo order with 2 apps and 2 mains for $116 before tip. We ordered the meatballs, calamari for apps and the carbonara, and lasagna for mains. It's been a while since we've been here and the last time we were here, the food was good, unfortunately, the food today was awful.Overall issues: The food was over salted across the board. Price: I'm happy to pay for dine-in and good food but was genuinely surprised by the $120 tab before tip. We paid, we tipped but shocking for 2 apps and 2 entrees.Specific Issues: the meatballs were dry, the lasagna was crispy and had WAY too much hamburger meat like it was made on the fly. It had like 1 layer of a noodles over hamburger meat and sauce The noodles weren't fully cooked as well.. The Carbonara was dry as well. Genuinely disappointed with the food, to the point where I had to cook dinner for the whole family, defeating the purpose of pickup.I did try to reach out to the restaurant to try and address the issues with them directly but we never got a call back. I hate to resort to a 1 star yelp review but the food was genuinely terrible tonight.
