By the looks of everything I saw come out of the kitchen I cannot imagine any of it is short of amazing and delicious. Fresh ingredients and layers of flavor in everything.

Wow. This is some of the best Italian food I've had outside Italy!…read more Every dish executed with care and the freshest ingredients. Raves for the Carbonara which was sooo decadent but somehow delicate too! Noodles cooked to perfection made the sauce swim in every bite. The calamari was slap your nonna good! Neat twist with the fried pepperoni but perfectly crusted and fried squid. 10/10. The cheesy garlic bread was basically Detroit style pizza - the crust buttery and charred. The Italian sandwich...omg. The fillings are high quality meats that any salumeria would be proud of. The Italian style lager and their Loose Cannon cocktail are sooo good! Great service, if a bit deliberate in a rush, in a really ambient little space. Can't say enough. Estato fantastico

We walked in on a Friday night where it was already very busy. The hostess was kind enough to squeeze me, my husband and my son at some bar seats after a short wait. We sat at the bar with Jake and he was great. Attentive but not obtrusive. He made good recommendations and made polite conversation. We started with the cheesy garlic bread and while that sounds like a pretty basic dish, it was fantastic. My kid loved it so much, he ordered some to-go take back to the hotel for a snack. My son had the pizza and my husband had the alfredo. Both loved their meals. I had their lemon chicken pasta dish and it was the best thing I've eaten in a long time. The chicken was braised and fall apart, packed with complex flavors. The homemade pasta soaks up the delicious sauce. The lemon made the dish bright and flavorful. If we had stayed in Traverse City for any longer, we would have gone to eat here every single day. If we come back, this will definitely be a place we visit again. Thank you for the great meal!!

That being picky though, the place feels welcoming and is brightly lit and feels well cared for. I ordered the Pot Roast ($20). It's described as slow roasted with carrots and onions and mashed potatoes. It was fantastic. The meat was tender and delicious. the gravy was perfect without overpowering. The carrots and onions were a great compliment. Plus the real mashed potatoes were made to perfection. Smooth, yet still had the potatoness to the texture. The taste was one of the better mashed potatoes I've had in TC. I don't know what they do th their TC Cherry Coke, but it is spectacular. Lastly for dessert I got their Lava Cake ($7), it was fine, but disappointing after such a great meal. I don't know if it was from frozen or what. However the texture was a little off andvthe taste was only okay. I wouldn't get it again. The service was very friendly and super helpful. Overall a 4 1/2 star review. Since I have to round, I'm going to forgive the dessert and give a full 5 stars. Would I return? Absolutely. Especially if I'm craving Pot Roast.

Service left a lot to be desired. Food was average at best…read more Brother in law order a speciality drink. It was missing half the amount ingredients.

If you're near and they have a table and you're hungry it will do. There are much better places that are cheaper or at least worth the money you will spend

We came here for a late lunch and honestly, it was still very busy but after we finished enjoying…read moreour meal and dessert, I can understand why. We were seated at a table close to the bar. When you come in, you are immediately and pleasantly assaulted by their dessert display case so feast your eyes and meanwhile, plan to save some room in your belly because trust me, you'll want some of their dessert. As a result, I ordered a salad, the up north cobb which was good and moderately filling and my husband had the special which was a chicken salad sandwich served with chips. We both had a nice lighter lunch followed by some delicious desserts. Generally, I order dessert and my husband eats what I cannot but this time, he orders his own. I had the cherry crumble and he had the sticky toffee pudding. Their dessert definitely satisfies the sweet tooth craving. So good and so much food! Service was fine. We ended up with the bartender as our waitress who had to do both roles during a busy time. She was a bit flustered but was generally pleasant whenever she came to the table to get our order and check on us. I only wish we were able to come here for dinner but lunch definitely did not disappoint and the dessert was epic!

A gem in the city!!…read more Their Pho is delicious with quality broth!! That is hard to find in Michigan and that is probably why they spike their prices up. But my husband and I were pleasantly surprised by the flavor of the Pho (we both got diff ones- the beef and chicken). It was clean, had lots of tables (not the most stroller friendly as tables are close together), and plenty of parking. The eggrolls were the only disappointing dish as they gave a measly amount of 2! C'mon! At least give 4! We would definitely come back next time we visit Traverse City!!

The fresh bean sprouts were added to my bowl and that's the only way I'll eat bean sprouts if they look absolutely spotless and these were. The ambience, a small coffee shop café type the chairs are kind of uncomfortable, but I really don't care. As I looked around me, they're a couple other people eating that delicious Vietnamese food which has some spice and we were all blowing our nose and drinking in between bites. I got the combination. It's a $20 bowl. It is really worth every cent because I've been to places where they only put one monkey ball ( beef ball) in the pho and that's pretty stingy.. here I think I had three meatballs and quite a bit of brisket and some other meat. had to ask for a refill on my ice water, but it was presented with a smile. What I like on the table with Pho is hoisin sauce and Sriracha. If I have those two things I alternate I put a little squirt and almost each bite of both Sriracha and hoisin sauce. Needless to say I was back on the road. Needed to drive 60 miles and I crashed twice on the way home not in a wreck, but I had to pull over to sleep. I was so tired. It was a cold day with a nice big hot bowl of pho and it made my day.
