My favorite Italian restaurant of all time. The meatball is to die for and the best I’ve ever have, the reason why we come back. Even just having the simple rigatoni bolognese is amazing. You can’t go wrong here. The service is unbeatable. Met and chatted with the owner Anthony Scotto who was so sweet and friendly. Honestly one of my favorite restaurants of all time and my husband and I travel a lot.
