I became a big fan of the pasta and most definitely the pizza, the menu selection felt full of tasty variety. The service was timely and very welcoming, and I loved the cozy interior of the restaurant. One of my favorite Italian places in the Valley.

Excellently prepared and authentic food Will definitely go there again. And this time with more friends

All of it was just wonderful. We were a party of 6 and the food was awesome with the servings on the large side. Our server was new and you wouldn't have known it. He was so fabulous. I wish I would've gotten his name. I give this a five star and we will definitely return.

Just went back today for lunch to make sure this place wasn't a fluke and it was just as good as my first time. I think we like it so much I will just keep coming back on a regular basis. Quality seafood, great sauce, amazing fresh baked rolls that they start you off with, and a friendly waitress with a genuine smile. I'm glad to see there is at least one other happy person left on this planet. This place isn't too big, very cozy, and has a friendly vibe. Looks like they have a good bar as well if you like a drink. Enjoy!

High quality food but a little expensive. Really good bread! I love the cachio Pepe. Decent ambiance and good service.

Love love their dishes: Pizza was light and great: I had the pizza Blanca without sauce and with Aragula and prosciutto The pasta dish I selected was the linguini with cracked pepper and white sauce: it was really good but the prosciutto was a bit too salty to my taste!

I was looking for an Italian restaurant for my husband to break his Matzah diet. I found this little gem. Great food and great service. They started us with great bread - so good that I had to ask for some to go. The Arugula salad with Lemon dressing was amazing. I had the Linguini Vongole and my husband had a Romana Pizza with pepperoni. It's not a huge restaurant but we liked the ambiance and the fact that they did not have music blasting was a plus indeed. Will definitely be back for Mother's Day.
