Food is always great, solid drinks. Definitely recommend this charming little place

Definitely visit them. We really enjoyed this place.

Awesome local Italian restaurant, it's walkable for us. We moved to Hillsdale during peak COVID and had only had takeout until fairly recently. Takeout was pretty good but now we have eaten at the restaurant 3 times we are more than impressed. It has become a go-to when we have guests visiting.

Wow. I’m a jaded Italian fan, and this was a magnificent sleeper. I’ll be back very soon to see if I can repeat the experience of a basically perfect Italian dinner. Atmosphere is “good”, but the food was fantastic.
