My friends and I wanted to take a break from midterms so we went out for dinner! Our server was extremely attentive to what we were looking to order and recommended drinks that would pair well with our food. The pasta was delicious!!!!!! We got the chicken pesto, braised lamb, and strozzatelli. Every dish was so good with the portion sizes being just right. Highly recommend!

Had been walking by this restaurant over the years and decided to try it. It was a great place to meet our friends for lunch. Fantastic cocktails and very nice wine. There were 6 of us and we tried a variety of pastas, and pinsas (flat bread pizzas) - delicious. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable. Restaurant atmosphere was bright and open. We had a great time.

Noise was not an issue because my guest and I reserved early. The arancini, beet salad and mushroom pappardelle were excellent.

The hot honey pizza was far and away our family’s favorite! We snagged a spot on the earlier side and it was perfect with our party of six including two young kids.
