    Pizza was great.
    Vikash K.

    Pizza was good, and food came out pretty quickly. Pleased with the menu selections and the funny waitress. But service was really slow. I get that having one waitress for 7 tables is a lot. But they should have more than one waitress helping out people over the weekend. Had to ask few times for glasses of water and plates. They cleared our tables after the appetizers which included the dirty plates. But then didn't give us new ones after we got the pizza. So we had to wait about 10 mins before she came back and then another 5 mins before she came back with the plates. Food was good, but not top notch.

    Sunday Brunch!

    While I have been here before for dinner a couple of times, this review is based on the Sunday brunch. The website suggests making reservations, which I'm glad we did, since this place was super busy. Before I go on about how good the food was, I just wanna say that the service was great. The waitress had an awesome attitude and was constantly at our table collecting plates and refilling beverages. We were a group of 8 and everyone loved it. There was an amazing selection of items on the buffet. There was your typical breakfast items...bacon, sausage, eggs, pancakes. There was also waffles that they make to order. Other items included, breaded shrimp, rice balls, potatoes, deep fried pickles, pasta with tomato sauce or Alfredo, chicken limone, fish, beef carving station, salad, grilled antipasto vegetables, shrimp, cheese tray, mini ciabatta sandwiches. As for dessert, an assortment of cake, pies and pastries, as well as fresh fruit. For $20 it's well worth it. I took some pictures of what we ate, but I don't think they did the buffet justice. So check it out, especially if you have a large group of friends/family.

    Mediterranean pizza with chicken

    Finally ordered their pizza for lunch. It was incredibly delicious and fresh. Made to perfection. Nice thin crust. Appropriate amount of toppings (except it was light on the chicken). This is now my favourite pizza sharing lunch date place. The patio is really nice as well. Next time I eat here, I will have a difficult time choosing between, pizza, burgers and salad because there are all fantastic@!

Wished I'd remembered to take pics before we started to eat, but I'm sure you can tell how wonderful it looked. The service was excellent. Sharon was very friendly and efficient.

It took a long time for our food and drinks to arrive. The arancini and spinach salad we started with were both good. The salad maybe a bit overdressed. It's nice they provide bread and butter for the table. My grilled salmon was bland. I don't understand the marscapone rice it comes with -- I detected *zero*. marscapone. The daily vegetables side could have been from frozen. I needed to ask the server for salt because of the lack of flavor. I really enjoyed my mojito mocktail! Very minty and the elderflower cordial was very flavorful. Didn't miss the booze at all. I'd definitely return but might order the lobster pasta or a steak dish instead of the fish -- my friends seemed to enjoy their entrees more.

We tried the fettuccine Alfredo, pesto gnocchi, arancini, eggplant Parmesan, and the pollo speciale. They also have a great wine selection and we really enjoyed the Chianti with our food. They start out by giving you a complimentary garlic foccacia bread which is SO good and hard to stop eating lol. The arancini either comes with 3 large balls or 8 minis. We opted for the 8 minis for our group and loved it! Perfectly crispy and flavorful-highly recommended! I'm usually not a fan of gnocchi at all but this one was out of this world fantastic and would definitely order it again! The pesto flavor and texture was also perfectly creamy. Loved the fettuccini Alfredo. Pasta tasted fresh and had the perfect amount of creamy Alfredo sauce! We were celebrating a birthday and they brought out tiramisu on the house which was so delicious would definitely get it again! This is the perfect place for a family dinner or a cute date night. Overall absolutely loved this place and can't wait to come back!

There is a restaurant in Memphis that has a fresher tasting sauce similar to being in Italy. So it wasn't bad, the sauce is just not as fresh as my other favs. Also, the celebration dessert comes out with sparklers so the night ended with a flash! It was a great experience. Def would not go again without a reservation. But glad to check it off my list of places to go.

Arancini were excellent, I personally felt a little more pomodoro would be nice, but is not necessary since the arancini have good flavor and seem to be super popular by the sheer amount of them coming out of the kitchen. The pesto balanced the arancini well. The Brussels are good, a little under seasoned (I did not taste hot honey nor the yuzu aioli on any of the pieces I tried) but cooked well and the pecorino is lovely shaved. My meal, agnolotti piedmontese, was excellent. The beef inside was so tender, pasta cooked well, and the butter and cheese, finished with a potato crumb, was absolutely stunning. My husband had the pollo trevisano. The chicken was ok, was pretty bland, the only seasoning being salt, which came from the prosciutto, and the butter herb sauce, which seemed to lack any real depth. The mash was excellent. Also came with some broccolini on the side which was cooked perfectly. My grandmother got the octopus appetizer for her meal. The octopus leg was chewy/overcooked. On the flip side, the potatoes with bacon were delicious. The arugula was well flavored. Overall was the most disappointing part of the meal, barely ate the octopus that she was so excited for. My grandfather got an excellent rigatoni dish that I cannot recall the name of, and their website is currently not up to date with what their in house menu is so I do not know the name. I did not try it myself but It has veal, and either kale/cabbage leaves or some interestingly large spinach, as well as a delicious sauce. The veal was amazing, he raved about it endlessly and shared that dish with my grandmother. To end our meals, my grandparents split an Affogato, and I got a coconut and banana panna cotta. My husband was full from dinner and did not indulge on dessert. Service: 5/5 Between our server and the other staff keeping our drinks full, table bussed and reset, and the timely service, it was an excellent occasion. Our server did an awesome job checking on refills of wine. Ambiance: 5/5 Absolutely adorable corner location right on Erie and Howard. They have awesome seating, tables, and lighting. The tvs play old sitcoms. There are umbrellas hanging from the ceiling, that may seem silly at first, but seem to divert the AC/heating from blowing directly on their customers, which is a lovely touch. I've never seen any other restaurant do something like that to keep their customers comfortable, I applaud it. Overall, a great experience with decent food. If we decide to venture back, we will have to try the pizza, get some more arancini, and try some other dishes.
