When I googled show me the best Italian restaurant in Little Italy this restaurant came up it showed it was 4.9 stars and had amazing reviews so my wife and I visited the establishment tonight 1/27/23 and first and foremost. The staff is absolutely incredible and the owner Giuseppe is very very sociable and very very nice guy truly an Italian man with an Italian restaurant. The food was undescribable, beautiful and delicious. I had a Alfredo and clam sauce, which was absolutely over the top delicious and my wife had an Alfredo seafood Diablo, which was absolutely fantastic. We had the Sicilian meatballs for an appetizer along with the burrata caprice and again everything was absolutely fantastic the staffs attention to detail and coming out and checking on you every few minutes making sure you have everything that you need making sure that you are enjoying every mouthful of delicious Italian food was absolutely over the top, Giuseppe, you have a five star establishment. We will be back and sure to tell all our friends in California.

We had meat dishes both filetto and picana were badly cooked and served cold. Fillet was not fillet. The starter, iberico ham was very good. Staff unattentive. Quite expensive.

Good music, attentive staff, reasonable prices. Good advice on local wine from the wait staff. And did I say, fantastic food! We only had starter and primi but the porcini risotto was beautiful, the spinach rich and creamy, the beef carpaccio delicious. After a week in Monopoli, we thought we should have been here sooner. Well done.
