    I'm not gluten-free but my wife is. We split a pizza with gluten-free crust . Seriously one of the best pizzas in town, if not the best.  Gluten-free crust was so light, crisp, and perfect. Definitely could not tell it was gluten-free. Everything else  we was absolutely amazing. Will definitely be back.

    Small intimate restaurant with smallish menu - all good things if that’s what you’re looking for. We enjoyed everything, but in particular the panini appetizer. We didn’t love the calamari app, but to each their own. We’ll go back for date night soon.

    They were out of half of their wine, espresso machine was broken, salad was wilted, service was really bad. The pasta was decent. We were not that impressed.

    Great atmosphere, great wine, great service, amazing Cesar salad -- but our pasta was a tad under al dente, making the bite a little harder than they had intended.

    Honestly surprised at this experience. Wait staff seemed flustered and struggling to keep up from the minute we walked through the door. Never put a drink menu down. Never put down serving utensils for one dish. Struggled to flag down our server or hear her when she came due the noise level. Decor was minimal / industrial - concrete and metal. Felt like an unfinished construction project accented by poor quality fake plants. Pasta was served al-dente, rigatoni overly so. Meatballs texture was mushy. Flavors were good. Standout was the gnocchi - light, interesting and delicious. Pizza was good. They were out of the affogato dessert which we looked forward to. The only bread in the meal came with the meatballs dish. For $25 pasta dishes they should have served bread. I would not return.
