read moreNestled in the heart of the neighborhood, this family-owned Italian restaurant offers a mix of experiences that leave diners divided. While some rave about the inviting ambiance, friendly service, and standout dishes like fresh calamari and vibrant risottos, others express disappointment over rushed meals, lackluster food quality, and inattentive staff. Complaints include overly salty soups and cold pizzas that seem more frozen than gourmet. Despite these inconsistencies, the restaurant remains a favorite for certain patrons due to its cozy atmosphere and accommodating staff, making it a spot worth trying, albeit with tempered expectations.
Everything was good, place for dessert! the waiter was amazing!
Beautiful small place on the upper east side. that was delicious and we were surprised and enthusiastic about a talented gitarrist on Wednesday night!
Excellent service and eating. more convenient short walk from hss.
Always a winner. Great atmosphere food and service. You can also speak to each other without shouting.
The food was very good. The wines were expensive and low quality. Definitely need to get better wines by the glass
