We love this place. Its a local favorite with tons of friendly faces. Both the large and small plates have a lot to offer. I do not eat pork, so I was pleased to see a lot of chicken/beef/lamb options offered on their menu.
Note: this is not a paid ad. We were shooting some images for a local news piece and the staff just welcomed us in! They even jumped in some photos with us! It’s so nice to see there are still amazing neighborhood restaurants you can find this kind of experience in.
Delicious meatballs or perfect balls (vegan option available) and sides that you can build your own dish or just sample a meatball on its own.
We did a walk in on a Friday night and were seated right away.
Great cocktails and drinks menu, served very efficiently too.
The servers are all super friendly and will make you feel very welcome.
This place was recommended by the concierge at our hotel and did not disappoint. It’s fairly small so if you really want to go here, make a reservation. That being said, our food arrived VERY quickly so you’ll also probably be able to get in without a reservation. We ordered the carafe of Chianti for $19 which I HIGHLY recommend, it was very high quality. My mom ordered the chicken pesto cavatappi which was delicious. There were at least 6-7 meatballs in it and the cheese was delicious. I ordered the kitchen sink which comes with your choice of meatballs and sauce with sides the chef picked. I will say, I was expecting the sides to be hot and they were cold but they were still really good. The side salad had a nice flavor, the carrots were caramelized and the broccoli had nice seasoning. Our waiter, Hunter, was also very good and checked on us often. His attitude was just so positive that it really rounded out the night. I would definitely come here again and recommend that you do as well!
