We had a medium sized group and shared a Caesar salad, calamari, arancini, and meatballs to start which were excellent. Entries ranged from chicken piccata to gnocchi to pizza. They do bring out the main courses when done so it did take about 5 minutes for everyone to be served. No complaints from our group because they were piping hot and delicious.\n\nLastly, the restaurant celebrated friends and family gathering together and sharing a meal. Never once did we feel rushed and were welcomed to stay post close while they prepared for the next day because we hadn’t seen each other in over 25 years.\n\nThis is a GEM in the Villanova area and one we will continue to frequent.
