Enjoyed our dinner. Brussels sprouts appetizer is excellent and you cannot go wrong with any of the pizza choices. If you have the Pinsa Al Pistacchio dessert I highly recommend to get a side of the pistachio ice cream to complement the dessert.

We love this place- a nice hidden gem in downtown WC. We love sitting at the bar and Lucas is great- very knowledgeable and an experienced bartender. They had a three course prefix for Valentines Day which was a little pricey but delicious nonetheless. We just wish they still offered their delicious homemade bread during the prefix. One of our favorite date night locations- we’ll be back!
