We called earlier to say we're celebrating a birthday and the moment we entered bearing a birthday cake, the staff stopped us in our tracks and pointed out that they charge a per person cake fee of $3.50, which I've never encountered in other restaurants before. There's also an additional 20% tariff for large groups. We were a party of seven. We had a group voucher which should have been applied to the total Before taxes, but the staff forgot, and didn't bother to redo the math and applied it after, driving up the costs. Pointing out the hidden costs here, and coupled with the very mediocre fare, you might want to think twice about visiting this place, especially for special occasions when you don't want it ruining your night. There are places which give you a better run for your money and time.

It's in a very nice part of town, and the restaurant itself is lovely, though in a somewhat more isolated area. Not to worry! There's a bus route that will take you very close to the restaurant. Great vegetarian options. Food came out very quickly, and the presentation was beautiful on the squid ink pasta.

The restaurant has a charming look and feel and the staff is nice and direct. The food is delicious! It was amazing and we will totally go back. The pasta is fresh and made daily. The smoked salmon ravioli was excellent. We also ordered the fettuccine di mare which was great too. The kids ordered a mac cheese and a lasagna and they thought it was good. Overall, the food is great and it was nice sitting outside. Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5 Price per person: $20–30
