I was extremely pleased with the experience. Intimate environment, high quality food, sizable portions, reasonable pricing, and good service / attention to detail.

Will definitely be recommending this spot to friends and making a point to come back in the near future. I did not order the pizza but I saw one come out and am eager to return and try it!

Thank you!

A quaint Italian restaurant nestled in LaGuardia Place. If you're not looking for the bistro lights and Cafe tables outside, you'd miss it just walking by. But thankfully, they are a neighborhood favorite and on my visit, plenty of regulars were spotted here. It was a solid lunch spot and I'm sure the dinner is even better. Menu of appetizers has a little of everything - cheese plate, fig salad, crabmeat cocktail appetizer and the grilled calamari (which I had and totally recommend), soup, and even eggplant. For Entrees, there's a list of pasta dishes or proteins to choose from. I had a hard time choosing given so many tasty choices. In the end, my waiter made the final decision for me between the two pasta dishes - ravioli de fungi (mushrooms) was the winner (tagliatelle ragu was the second choice). They also serve pizza! I wanted pasta this visit so I'll have to return for that. It looked fantastic from when others ordered it. Waiter was attentive and easy on the eyes. Wink wink

Walked into this charming Italian restaurant for the first time the other evening. I did not have a reservation, but my aunt and I were promptly greeted and offered a table by the window. Our meal was delicious- I had the server’s recommendation of seafood pasta. Wine list was very very good. The staff was detail oriented, the ambiance was romantic, and the music was complimentary. Into our meal, my aunt, who had just had hip surgery, needed to use the bathroom. I didn’t realize it was not on the ground level, but when my aunt asked where the bathrooms were, the owner was so kind to help walk her down the stairs to their bathroom. Great food, great service, a nice family spot. Will definitely be returning!

We arrived 5 minutes early (party of 6) and our table wasn't ready yet, so the staff politely asked us to wait outside. A few minutes later, the host came out with 6 FULL wine glasses and said they were on the house, apologizing that we had to wait outside. After we were seated, we had an incredible meal and service to boot. What a warm, friendly experience! A must-visit.
