What to Order
Pizza Regina
A perfectly baked wood-fired pizza, highlighting the quality of ingredients and the skill of the pizzaiolo.
"The wood-fired Pizza Regina was perfect, and the seafood tagliatelle, along with the steamed fish, were outstanding, beautifully cooked, crunchy yet tender, served with vegetables and garnished with pickled onion and garlic."

Margherita Pizza
A classic Neapolitan pizza, praised for its fresh ingredients and authentic wood-fired crust.
"We ordered some pizzas ( Capricciosa , Margherita) to start and received them in about 5 minutes or less and they were WOW! FRESH ingredients combined with real wood fired Italian pizza oven and crust that makes me literally cry with joy."

Gnocchi alla Sorrentina
Fluffy gnocchi served in a rich Sorrentina sauce, a comforting and flavorful pasta dish.
"I loved the arancini and the Gnocchi Alla Sorrentina. I also tried the ravioli funghi and we ordered the margherita pizza, and they were delicious."
Mayara Tardeli
Mushroom Arancini
Crispy fried risotto balls with a mushroom filling, served with a perfectly flavored tomato sauce.
"We had the Mushroom Arancini to start, which was mind blowing (the tomato sauce was perfectly flavored and the arancini crust and filling were impeccable), then we had an order of the Papardelli Funghi & Tartuffo and the Gnocchi alla Sorrentina."

Pappardelle Mare e Monti
Homemade pappardelle pasta with a tomato sauce, basil, cream, garlic, mushrooms, and tiger shrimp.
"Pappardelle are homemade pasta ( yes they make their own pasta!) combined with tomato sauce with basil and a hint of cream and garlic. Two types of mushrooms as well as tiger shrimps. Wow wow and wow. W O W!"

Crème Brûlée
A classic dessert with a perfectly caramelized sugar topping, described as a "ticket to heaven."
"Well I don't think that I can explain this brilliant and flavorful combination of dark chocolates and fresh fruit, but both Desserts were uplifting and it was a choir of angels singing inside my mouth. Crème Brule and Tiramisu are simply a must try as it's a ticket to enter Heaven!"
