    One of our favorite places. We sat outside on the terrace, and although it was a chilly evening, we were quite comfortable.

    This restaurant offers an enchanting and romantic atmosphere, made even more special by the delightful 3-piece band playing live music. The decor is absolutely stunning, adding to the overall ambiance. The food was exceptional, with the funghi appetizer and pancetta-wrapped prawns stealing the show—both perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. The fresh-baked bread is a real plus. For our mains, we enjoyed the marsala pasta and the ragu. Both dishes were rich, hearty, and served in generous portions. This dining experience was truly memorable, and we can’t wait to return!

Coming from a history in fine dining service both front facing and waitstaff-excellent place! Oh yeah-food is always fresh, arugula lemon salad a craving and the pizza as close as you will get to Italy-
