Food: LOVE the food here, come here often, and never disappointed! Some of my favorites are the homemade focaccia bread(get there early for this) , Pomodoro, and Casarecce al Pesto! I would skip the salad, it was disappointing

Price: decent $18 pasta with medium portions

Service: the guy in the front seating people down is slow and lowkey always looks unhappy, the girl taking the orders is nice and friendly

Beautiful place. Delicious food. Arrive early to avoid waiting too long. You can notice that the pasta was made there and the sauces were delicious. The bread was also good. Salads were the perfect complement. The wine was well recommended by the waiter. The decoration was very nice.

Absolutely delicious meal. Every dish we tried was 10/10. Seasoning was perfect for homey style dishes that weren’t too greasy or salty but were still bursting with flavor. The consistency of every sauce was perfect and every noodle was coated beautifully. Pasta was cooked to a perfect consistency with a nice bite but not at all undercooked. Every dish we had was executed perfectly and the focaccia was perfect for mopping up the delicious sauces that were left over. You can’t go wrong with the lasagna or the fusilli and we’ll be back to try their other dishes! Service was also very attentive and warm. Come early if you don’t want to wait too long as there was a line when we left!

A lovely place serving up freshly made pasta. My boyfriend and I loved the beet ravioli!! Order that one with your eyes closed.

The lasagna was great as well. Not heavy at all, yet very creamy and filling. I’d personally prefer it with a touch more salt and a bit more burnt/scrispy top and edges for added texture.

It's a small place with great food... But the wait is awfully long. We were told 30-35 minutes for a table for 2 and were seated after an hour easily. We were seated on a somewhat shared table, and it took 20 more minutes for someone to wait on us. Except for this the food is delicious. The pasta is fresh. I wish the service was better
