Had a lovely anniversary dinner here! The menu says that Luisa welcomes you to her restaurant, and she really does ☺️ I hope to be like Luisa! She is very sweet. Food was delicious, service was entertaining, and the whole experience felt very Italian. Thank you for such a memorable evening! ~ the coupe with the cats

A hidden gem! The food was delicious and we had the pleasure of meeting Luisa herself, who came over to see how we were doing. She's 96 and still going strong! Fun ambiance, too. Great night out with friends. We'll be back for sure.

This was our first time dining here, and we’re already planning to come back! The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was bursting with flavor. The service was equally impressive; from the warm welcome by the hostess to the attentive waitstaff and talented kitchen team. Highly recommend!
