    So honestly I think this place deserves a higher rating.. obviously higher enough that I took the…read moretime to add them to Yelp; a definite hole in the wall but a gem in the neighborhood.. a cute little mom-n-pop restaurant.. a lot of "alloras.." so you know you're in a legit Italians presence! Came in at peak dinner time without any reservation or anything, lucked out had a table for two available and was seated immediately. As usual in most French places, took a few minutes for anyone to acknowledge us and had to ask a few times to get the menu and some water. We ordered the lasagna and Gulianna pizza.. but were told about 10 minutes later that they didn't have anymore lasagna left.. so they offered to make a spaghetti with bolognese sauce that would taste on par to the lasagna.. we were actually quite excited to take them up on their offer! Bc really, how many people order just plain ol' spaghetti at a restaurant? The pizza was solid, on point, perfect amount of toppings, very flavorful.. thin crusted just like how they do in italia! The pasta was actually quite excellent.. perfectly seasoned sauce and Al Dente! I hear from other sources that their tiramisu was also excellent.. we had to skimp out on this due to being full and having plans for dessert at a near by creperia.. a lot of people were spotted taking them to-go though! My only gripe with the place is that they ended up charging me for the lasagna which is more expensive than the spaghetti.. I didn't complain but I wouldn't have been surprised if they offered some kind of compensation or correction to keep their customers happy. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

    The food was good, we got pizza, bruschetta, and ravioli to spilt. The amount of food was good for…read morethe price, and was very flavorful. The service was good and most employees can speak english. the restaurant is small and not very busy. I would definitely recommend for some good casual Italian.

    This place is a cute little gem in Paris! It's run by an Italian family and the service is so…read moresweet and friendly! And the food is bellísima! They bring a couple of boards with the menu and help you through it. Everything is made very fresh to order so it takes awhile but oh so worth it. They were so kind as to give us complimentary appetizers and even coffees! Loved them so much, we went back the next night!

    Was wandering the city trying to find a decent place that wouldn't run my wallet dry, when I walked…read morepast this restaurant. At first I glanced at the large sign outside and walked a few steps, only to return to give the menu a second read. There were a variety of Italian dishes listed, mostly pastas and pizzas, but I was cold, hungry, and tired, so I stopped into this place where I was warmly greeted. There was only one more table at 8:30pm, but I sat myself down and ordered the truffle gnocchi. The food took a while to come out, which I thought was strange considering I was the only one in the restaurant now that the couple before me had left. While I waited, they gave me a table water along with some bread (focaccia with cheese & an olive spread, it tasted like). The bread was delicious and crispy, toasted to perfection. The gnocchi came out about 15 minutes after I sat, and although it looked small at first, I struggled towards the end to finish it. The sauce wasn't as... truffley? as I would have liked, and I ended up having to add salt to it (I KNOW THIS IS VERY RUDE IN EUROPE but I swear it was under-seasoned). The gnocchi was prepared well in the sense that it wasn't rubbery or chewy like one's I've had back in the US, but they ran rather large, making it hard to enjoy the (under seasoned) cream. My gnocchi was 15 euros which was a little more than I would have liked to pay, but the workers were extremely friendly despite the language barrier, and as I was there for about an hour (escaping the cold and using their free wifi to track my bus), I saw that it seemed to get busier with regulars.
