The prices are super reasonable, and as an American traveling in Italy, I was looking for a proper breakfast. It only cost (€-€€), my girlfriend only paid 20€ for the first breakfast. The next day we paid 30€, b/c we got half the menu! Everything on the menu is very tasty. It's a funky, cozy coffee house that delivers some delicious food for reasonable prices. Barbara is awesome and the food is solid. Plus, she has a GREAT playlist, jams for days. Also, they do accept credit cards.

As you can tell the view is spectacular if you can grab one of the tables by the fence. I like how this place does not try to rip you off as they probably could charge double of their price if they wanted to due to their location.

Definitely glad that i did. I started with the obligatory bottiglia d'acqua, I quickly ordered a nice bottiglia di Greco di Tufo. Wine was good. Life was good. First course. I had the Insalata D'Este - which could easily have been a main course. It was a nice big bowl of arugula and mixed greens with tomatoes, green olives, fresh slices of mozzarella, and anchovies on top. Had I known that it was così grande, I would have stopped there. But thank goodness I ordered Le Lasagne, because it was the best Lasgne that I have ever had. If it's on the menu while you are here - order it! Don't expect a huge monstrosity that you might get in Little Italy back home, this is molto raffinato. The only thing that compares is the lasagna that mia zia made for me in Roma. I was instantly transported back to my first trip to Italy in 1986....

The cocktails are inventive, elevated, and layered with thought, yet the atmosphere is relaxed and elevated while also unpretentious. Andrea, the owner, is part mad scientist (he has his chemistry set in the front window) and part storyteller. He crafts flavor profiles with house-made natural extracts that feel both novel and perfectly balanced. We had a blast geeking out with him about spirits while Satish and the rest of the team kept the night lively with warm hospitality and a bit of history woven into every pour. The naturally flavored home made welcome apertif and little bites were a charming touch, but the real highlight was realizing this wasn't just a drink, it was a total experience. Tonight's serendipitous nightcap was magical and we'll be back... again and again.

The owner was truly passionate about his craft. A beautiful desert was offered on the house alongside the first round. Of course, the drinks were incredible. The company too! I walked out the front door in a state of bliss. Oh yeah! I also forgot to mention that they infuse and subsequently diffuse their own alcohols, alongside making a chamomile based bitters with a 150 year-old recipe.
