The owner immediately struck up conversation and started us on a tasting spree of his delicious limoncello varieties! Between 'shots' of his homemade limoncello, we sampled some of his fresh jams & preserves as well. So tasty! He was SOO friendly and gave us so many great recommendations, we definitely did not walk out empty-handed! So whilst in town, you must make sure you stop by this adorable little shop that's filled with so many Italian treats! I promise, you won't regret it! :)

I believe he thought we interrupted his conversation with his friends however we waited a good 5 minutes before asking the question thinking maybe he didn't see us standing there. Anyway, it went down hill from there as we took a picture of the entryway to remember the name as we thought we might review this incident later. The waiter then started yelling at us that it was illegal to take pictures... Wow... super good service and a boxing match threat... Ok so we went next door and ordered... The wait staff at the restaurant we settled on said "dont worry about that waiter next door he gets in arguments all the time with people." And so he did... as he approached us again with the woman manager saying stuff about illegal photography... once again way to aggressive and way to unprofessional.. Actually 1 STAR is to high.... I would recommend you avoid this one...

Wow, the pesto pasta was the best we have had, just so light and refreshing. Grilled anberjack great portion and the best prepared grilled artichoke I have had they put something crunchy on it. Dessert was local spooner cake and we tried the local but priciest dessert wine, which was a little sweet to us. Highly recommended and great value given the location by the water!

You are in a customer service job and you're acting like you hate your customers... They just had dead-pan faces the whole time, didn't check in on us, and when we did ask for something it just seemed like we were a bother. EX: I simply asked for a box for my pizza and the runner said go inside and ask. I then go inside and ask for a box for my pizza and salad and the rude lady at front acted like she never heard of such an ask. I kid you not she gave me two paper bags. Meanwhile I clearly see pizza boxes in the back!! Hey maybe they have something against tourists... who knows! I do not recommend coming here at all just because of the service my family and I received. Unacceptable and disrespectful! Food was very mediocre too - don't bother wasting your time, social interactions, or your taste buds on this place.

As we walked by, we noticed some of their employees inside so we asked if we could make a reservation for dinner for 6pm or 6;30pm. They recommended 6pm and took my name. We arrived promptly at 6pm and were the 2nd table seated. I'm so glad we came early. Over the next few nights we noticed so many people waiting outside all night long. I will tell you that my branzino was amazing. Fresh and cooked perfectly. I really enjoyed my healthy meal and I don't mind deboning a whole fish myself. My daughter had the linguine with clams which was also very delicious. My son had the pesto lasagna which was so-so. We were expecting red sauce bolognese so it could just be that we just had different expectations. He also ordered the steak and enjoyed it. My husband had the fruitti de mare and thought it was just okay. Something to know is that because they are so busy with so many people waiting, they like you to order everything together. We noticed a server who got frustrated with another table who tried to order apps, and then tried to order the main meals after they finished them, then dessert. These employees are hustling and trying to turn tables, as you see the queue outside waiting. It's a tiny cozy restaurant with a lot of demand. I would recommend this place for certain dishes, especially the fresh fish.
