What to Order
Focaccia with Basil Butter and Honey
This complimentary starter bread is a standout, served with a unique and delicious basil butter and honey combination.
"The highlight of the night? The complimentary bread at the start — which is both impressive and kind of insulting, because it peaked before we even got to the main event."
Matthew Raiche
Meatballs
A highly praised appetizer, these meatballs are noted for their exceptional flavor and quality.
"The meatballs were OUTSTANDING, and I say that as someone who has lived with Italian food all my life."
Carroll Wagner
Pizza (especially Carni, Mushroom, Margherita, Cacio e Pepe)
The Neapolitan-style pizzas are a major draw, featuring light, chewy crusts and fresh, flavorful toppings.
"Pizza like in Italy … im italian and i can say it … !!"
Andrea Montanari
Gnocchi

"My girlfriend tends to be a bit more selective with her food but she was equally happy with the gnocchi."
Topper McGinty

"The short rib was delicious."

- The restaurant can accommodate dietary restrictions like lactose intolerance.
- While the pizza crust is generally excellent, some find the undercarriage can be soft; if you prefer a crispier bottom, you might mention it.
