Food was great. Portions and price were just the right size to still get dessert. Even though the restaurant was pretty crowded, the noise was not overwhelming and a conversation can still be had at your own table. I would recommend requesting a window table. Seating was comfortably dispersed, no one was right on top of you. My party had the margarita pizza, Caesar salad, salmon, lasagna, and spaghetti, everyone loved their dish.

So glad this restaurant reopened and we finally had a chance to visit again. (Last time was pre-Covid.) Food was so good, good value, plus more relaxed, than Il Gattopardo, it’s “sister” restaurant nearby - also an excellent experience. We had lots of time to talk, did not feel rushed, the service was exceptional. Our friend remarked on how nice it was that the tables were not too close together. We look forward to returning.
