What to Order
Gnudi
These "little potato pillow" gnocchi are incredibly soft and often served with a rich mushroom truffle sauce, making them a standout dish.
"The Gnudi ai Funghi was out of this world amazing. Soft, pillowy, and perfectly balanced with the earthy richness of the mushrooms. Every bite melted and felt thoughtfully crafted."
Harlow Phoenix
Penne Olive Vodka
A flavorful and consistently well-prepared pasta dish that many regulars rave about for its perfect execution.
"The Penne Olive Vodka is one of my favourite dishes there, so flavorful and perfectly done every time."
