Offering a menu in English as well, this ensures that you will not have an issue ordering if the Italian language is not there yet.

It's as if you're having dinner at the owner's house. Everything tastes like home made recipes, not food optimized for serving in a restaurant. This place is a great value. Carafes of inexpensive house wine flow freely. The bread is very good. We sampled a wide variety of dishes including the mixed salad, grilled vegetables, ragu Bolognese, cacio e pepe, rigatoni with pesto, veal Pizzaioa, pistachio encrusted chicken, grilled sausage and potatoes. The consensus favorite was the mozzarella with cherry tomatoes- the quality of ingredients shone. A moderately priced restaurant that punches above it's weight!

Modern white tables and chairs finish off the cool modern vibe. The pictures don't do it justice really a great place to eat. The. Service was excellent. Our waiter spoke very good English and was really knowledgeable about the menu. I'm quite a wine snob but am pretty dumb when it comes to Sicilian wines. I asked him for a recommendation based on my wife's steak order. In my home town Miami thats a license to steal as the most expensive wine would end up on your bill. Instead he brought a wine from the lower price tier, local and amazingly complex. The food is priced the same. With all pastas 12 and secondi (meat and fish) 15. We ordered the cáprese and it was waaay too much. 5 perfect balls of buffalo mozerrella with fresh tomatoes and basil. Very nice. We then had the entrecôte with a side of excellent fries and the pasta with sea urchin. Both dishes, Especially the pasta i would come back for. All in all an excellent dining experience with good food, service and ambiance.

Unfortunately, this place disappointed me in the system from the lack of gastronomy / creativity in the food, the pompous service, and the try hard atmosphere.

While the photos may be beautiful, the lack of explosion in my mouth did the rest of the talking. Sorry Chef Sultano, but this did not hit the nail on the head for me.

The fresh seafood is absolutely the way to go, and the truffle "ice cream sandwich" (I'm calling it that), was one of the most incredible things I've ever eaten. The fish of Sicily, was beautifully displayed with bullseye looking sauces with a jelly overtop and shrimp and octopus on the side. The wine list is extensive and they servers are willing to help you out with a recommendation. Lastly, they are so careful about allergies and will substitute any foods out and make you a unique dish which is something I really appreciated. Go here if you have the money to spend!
