The food is very high quality. The home made pasta is delicious. I loved the sweet potatoe gnocchi, it is stuffed with burratta and in a delicious cream sauce. The Pear Ravioli is amazing (reminds me of a dish from Florence). I have also enjoyed the arrabiata pasta (spicey) with a side of meatballs. They offer a choice of a prefix menu which is about $60 pp or you can order alacarte. Everything I have had is very tasty and I crave their homemade pasta often. My only con is it can be very expensive place to go as a family for dinner, we are a family of 4 and it was just shy of $200.

Great food and great ambience. The brunch crowd at the restaurant makes it pretty energetic. This means that servers are doing the best they can and in spite of a short wait to get served they were excellent. We’ve been here a couple times and both times had excellent food and great drinks. Put this one on your list.
