My whole family was wondering why they would put Jeffery Epstein up on the wall. Does anyone know who this actually is a picture of? Also, their pizza is awesome! If you are in the mood for pizza, this is definitely the place to go. If you're into drinking non-generic alcohol beverages, Oak Stone's got it, all sorts of different beverages. Mocktails too. The reason I gave it 4 stars out of 5 stars is because I think trying out other pizzerias would be a good option instead of coming back. But nonetheless, they cook pizza right and would be a great default choice if you've tapped out all the other local pizza joints. Cheers and happy eating!

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES.

My meal contained walnuts, which I realized after having an immediate reaction. Our waitress and the manager proceeded to tell me that I was mistaken and that these were "crunchy pears" until I cut open a ravioli and showed them walnuts in my meal. As my reaction worsened, we had to wait to be able to leave the restaurant as the restaurant still insisted on charging for half the meal. The staff and the chef at this restaurant need to receive training on food allergies.

Eat here. Do it. Just do it. It's not saying much in "best restaurant in Winchester" but this is…read moreone of the best restaurants I've ever been to. It not only compares to Italian food in Italy, it beats it. The food is all homemade, prepared with care, and the owner is fully hands on to make sure the food and drinks are fantastic, and also hands on to make sure customers are happy. The entire experience is profoundly incredible. I want to never not be eating there. The gnocchi melts in your mouth, the sauces are deep rich flavors, not like any other place in town what is watered down liquid tomatoes. The food came to the table fresh and hot, served at the perfect time, even though it was a busy night. I am now a life long customer. The drinks were fantastic as well. The wine was an incredible addition to the meal and the delicious sangria was hand made by the owner herself. If I lived on the other side of the world, I would fly back to Winchester just to eat here. Do yourself a favor, eat here!!!

Incredibly nice and hospitable and provided excellent service. The inside is cute and quaint and you can tell this restaurant was a dream! The inside is small but gives a more intimate feel. The food was not great. The place has amazing reviews, so maybe we stumbled on the wrong food. They don't have a kids menu but have basic pastas for kids. We got ours a spaghetti and meatballs which was a large portion. The sauce tasted can like. I had the shrimp pesto. The sauce was more liquid than a thick creamy pesto, which I normally don't mind. The gnocchi was good but the sauce was heavily seasoned and not super delicious. The shrimp was a large portion and okay. My boyfriend had the lobster risotto. The actually risotto was good but the lobster was tough and overcooked. I only saw pasta selections and not a lot of appetizers. We had the fried Brie cheese which was pretty good. I really enjoyed the bread but had to ask for olive oil. They have a house made eggplant that I didn't care for. The prices were outrageous. Our dinner cost $150 with no alcohol. Overall would not come back, which makes me sad for the business :(

The cream tomato sauce hit the mark without being too overbearing of either. The spaghetti dish was fantastic. The olive oil, garlic, and red pepper combo hit the spot. Seems basic, but executed perfectly. I was hoping for more homemade noodles, but it was basic boxed spaghetti- or so it tasted. Both portions were extremely generous. The only thing that would elevate the dishes would be some meat like pancetta or pork as a meat and to add some texture. The meatballs offered were in marinara and wouldn't go. I did get a chicken tender but that was definitely not homemade.

For dine in options, there are tables tucked in between plants in a greenhouse like setting. How sweet! We tried a ham and cheese sandwich on a pretzel roll, the florentine sandwich, and winter ham and Brie. All three sandwiches were delicious, flavorful, and so good! We also shared a peanut butter chip cookie. It was to die for! Definitely stop by to check out this cafe for a cute lunch with friends, a place to sip coffee and read a book, or to grab a quick bite while on the road!
