Great family restaurant—hopping at 6p on a Sun. Gluten free or whole wheat pasta! My mushroom pasta was excellent and the guinea fowl main was delicious. Great place!

Loved the lobster raviolli! Crowd tends to be in the late 20s- late 30's group so if you are younger than that age group you may feel out of place.

Good food. Great location before a Guggenheim theatre event. Super squished tables if you’re a couple. Friendly neighborhood vibe

Good selection of pasta dishes from different regions of Italy. The veal and truffle agnolotti is delicious.

Mozzarella appetizer was phenomenal. A must try. Duck ragu pasta was also excellent. Perfect portions.

A mirage in the desert! Shrimp and corn salad - delish.

Very good pasta, but the 'special free dessert' it's apparently not valid anymore.

The Bitches say: A-. We adored the ambiance, stellar service, and home-cooked Italian at this neighborhood establishment. Perfect for brunch with your family or a get together with girlfriends. Read more

It's a good restaurant... but it's really busy. I think it's overpriced for what it is.
