We were a party of four at our table, greeted and sat at our table very quickly. Our server came and offered recommendations of the house specials  and got our drinks.  Server brought out drinks and bread and butter, cold vs warmer for spreading on French bread.  We all had the half salads.  The Caesar Salad was the perfect size, lacking in taste and under dressed. Needs more of an anchovy taste very bland.  Dinners came out and were excellent in size portion and beautiful presentation.  There were two orders of lasagna and very good taste but luck warm, needed to be hotter to allow the cheeses to melt.  The server came many times along with the owner.  The restaurant looks to be on point., Good communication and with the staff. The restaurant is  very inviting to come in for dinner.  There is also outside seating great for long afternoons.  Dinner is a little expensive but that is the sign of the times.  They have Happy Hour and $2 dollars off glasses of wine from 4-6pm

Such a wonderful experience. We dined in for brunch today (Saturday). Our food was delicious and the service was superb. I ordered the avocado toast with a side of fruit and a cappuccino, and my husband had the special of steak and eggs. Our waitress Zoe was so sweet and attentive. We will definitely be returning for brunch and for dinner. Go try Sam and Luca! You won't be disappointed.

When I moved into the neighborhood I wondered what is that cute dark tinted restaurant on the corner. When I finally stopped to find out, I was blown away by the quant atmosphere and great food at this hidden gem! Last night I brought a party of 11 and were accommodated quickly by the manager. We were checked on multiple times. The wait staff and management as well as owners are excellent! All of my friends loved every dish and desert they ate. This is the best kept secret of excellent Italian food and service in the east valley. We’ll be back again soon!

So where do I start, wow! Such a delicious date night! My handsome hubby and I had a wonderful dinner. He has the prime rib and I had the shrimp and scallop risotto (literally cooked to perfection). Bethany was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu.. chef Mark thank you for everything!

The food quality was excellent. From the short rib to the salmon to the lasagna. All top notch in flavor and quality. The service was great and the chef is amazing. The salmon was melt in your mouth and full of flavor. The short rib almost didn’t even need chewing, it was so tender. The lasagna is probably the best I’ve had.
