We arrived around 5:30 PM on a Sunday and were seated right away at a table for two. By the time we started eating, the restaurant had filled up, and wait times for those arriving later were likely close to an hour, so we were fortunate with our timing. Our waiter was polite, attentive, and had a great sense of humor. Whenever we mentioned having questions, he would respond with, "And I have answers for you!"

We started with the meatballs, which were incredibly flavorful and had a great texture. I was really satisfied with just two meatballs, haha! Next, we tried the House Ricotta, and wow, it was amazing. The balance of the cheese with the sweetness of the honey, complemented by the olive oil on the bread, was perfect. For my main course, I chose the cacio e pepe, and I’m so glad I did—it was outstanding! It ranks among the best cacio e pepe I’ve had, even compared to those in Rome. We ended up ordering a second bowl to share. My companion had the short rib ragu and really enjoyed it. We also shared the zeppole and panna cotta; they were good, but for me, the first two courses were definitely the highlight. The service was good, although our drinks took a little while to arrive from the bar. We will definitely be returning!

It’s smaller than I though it would be, so I highly recommend a reservation if you want to avoid waiting, but it is so cute inside with the queen Sofia Loren being the theme. The design feels fancy and the food was amazing. I had pancakes and they were basically like fluffy cinnamon rolls bites of heaven in your mouth. Everyone at the table got something different and we all loved it. They don’t mess around with the bottomless mimosas and their other drinks were great! It was a quick walk from our hotel and a nice location with great food and great drinks.

I ordered the risotto for my entree and it was rather salty and too loose, not creamy. The soft shell crab was surprisingly small as well. Other than that the food was really tasty. Price per person: $50–100 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: Ricotta Appetizer Platter, Squid Ink Pasta
