However, considering the price, one could find better Italian food elsewhere. I had the salmon ravioli and thought it was too salty, but everything else we ordered (cheese board, lasagna, and ensalata tricolore) was good. The restaurant has a cute and cozy atmosphere that is not particularly suitable for a date. Nothing special here, but nothing too bad either.

Pumpkin gnocchi with a tomato and basil sauce were a dream soft and airy, every morsel a delight. Fettucini with assorted mushrooms was an amazing blend of flavors. Generous portions, food served precisely al dente, friendly service, no noisy music, a not too expensive very nice bottle of Dolcetto d'Alba, recommended by our knowledgeable waiter. A great dinner. Strongly recommended.

It is usually not crowded, and I believe it is family-owned.
