We ordered the Spaghetti Carbonara, Tartufata, and Margherita Pizza, and each dish was absolutely delicious--perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Also, Nutella calzone was so tasty. The service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall pleasant experience. The outdoor seating is a standout feature, offering a cozy and charming ambiance, especially during the Christmas season with all the festive decorations. It's a great spot to enjoy a meal while soaking in the holiday spirit. Highly recommend this place for both the food and the atmosphere!

Can't say enough great things about this restaurant. i wanted to give it 5 stars but that's tough to do living in Tri State Area. We went on. Sunday afternoon @ 430 so it was quiet. Ceasar was outstanding (very fresh) and shrimp carbonara was fantastic (and food came out hot) Servers were patient and extremely attentive The calamari was cooked perfectly as well (not to over fried) The desserts (chocolate soufflé) was delicious ! Loved the place would it really closer to 4 1/2 stars. Can't wait to go back... and BYOB w/ great wine glasses 🙌
