What to Order

Paige Raza
Gnocchi
Soft, pillowy ricotta gnocchi served with a delicious tomato sauce, a comforting and satisfying dish.
"Gnocchi was very flavorful. ... I did really enjoy the gnocchi, and I'm typically not a huge fan of it. The sauce it came in was really good."
Paige Raza, Michael
