“ The best meatballs Ive ever had, so far! Sweet tomato sauce with raisins and pine nuts, unbelievable. Must try! Cacio e pepe was 1010 as well. Totally recommend! ”
“ Very nice place to have a great Italian meal. I like the atmosphere as well as the dessert. Great place to take your significant other on a date. ”
“ Authentic and fun vibe! Incredible service and beautiful restaurant. Nice wine list and the food was delicious, although the cacio Pepe wasnt the best Ive ever had.. The tables were a bit small tight. Its a very loud room which makes it fun. Fantastic bartenders and drinks. The hostesses were also extremely accommodating and they have coat check. ”
“ This place has an old school charm about it. We walked it on a quiet night and were seated without reservations. The decor of the place is so charming and so were the folks. We ordered the focaccia margarita Cacio e Pepe and they were incredibly nice! Highly recommend! ”
“ Great atmosphere, perfect service, and delicious and innovative food! First sausage stuffed olive! Lobster pasta special on Friday was spicy, rich, and filled with perfectly cooked lobster. Great wine list and a beautiful decor. ”
“ We celebrated my birthday here. Amazing staff, tasty food and aesthetic atmosphere. Definitely will come back ”
“ Excellent pasta here. Highly recommend the agnolotti, which is delicious. The focaccia was great. We loved our waiter. Daiquiri is very sweet so be careful with that one. The Tree House is delicious, perfect balance. To be honest I wasnt thrilled with the table and chairs. Everything looked nice but the table was sticky no matter how many times they wiped it down. The chairs were also not very comfortable. The food and drinks definitely made up for it though! Which is why I gave 5 stars and would definitely come back here. ”
“ Everything about this restaurant is a 1010. Service, atmosphere and food quality. You can tell that the chef and all staff are happy. The food so tasty without having to use so many ingredients. Antonio and everyone were over the top nice, always checking in on you making sure you were satisfied and drinks always filled. The restaurant was so pretty, cozy and bustling!! ”
