    It was okay. Cream sauce on the veal was delicious but pasta wasn’t anything special. Good wine but food was just meh. Server had a thick accent so you could barely understand him. 2nd time there, will try elsewhere next time in Little Italy.

    Dined 5/22/23 with friends. Great food. Had so many fabulous specials that we did not need the menu. We all ordered off the menu. Server Nicky was the best. Friendly and personable. Piano player was a really nice touch. Can't wait to go back.

    We had a wonderful dinner from start to finish! Lots of specials to choose from-the squid ink pasta with mussels was amazing, as was the Bistecca Fiorentina!! The place was packed on a Sunday night, must say something! Will definitely return.
