If you’re willing to pay a little more for pasta, this is a good spot. It’s pretty expensive for the portion size but I enjoyed my pasta (got tagliatelle). The pasta is cooked al dente, good if you like it that way and not soft pasta. The roasted tomato sauce for the tagliatelle was superb! The fried pasta— is pretty good, but could use some more seasoning, as it tastes somewhat bland. If that’s your speed, you’ll probably enjoy it.
FYI, for dine in, you pay inside at the register for your meal and they’ll give you a number for a table, indoors or outdoors.
We had lunch outside on a beautiful day. The restaurant was spacious and attractive. The food was very well prepared and very good-home made pasta, great bread, cheeses and interesting sauces. The dessert ( a pistachio cannoli) was excellent. The place is not cheap but worth it. The whole place feels very European and authentic. We will absolutely go back
Worth the wait and anticipation! I had the spicy rigatoni, an iced cappuccino, and a pistachio cannoli. The pasta was fresh and cooked perfectly al dente. The sauce was smooth and bursting with flavor. The cappuccino was a real treat, and the cannoli was stuffed right in front of me—crispy shell, and fresh, light ricotta and freshly chopped pistachios. I’m a very critical eater of Italian food. This is the real deal!
