"I really cannot understand the bad reviews here. We came here really late, most other restaurants did not want to let us in. The gentlemen of this restaurant not only said yes, but served delicious authentic Italian food in very fair price for this area and were very nice. This place is very recommended if you want to feel in Italy for a moment."
"Great location in the middle of a beautiful square. The menu offered a wide selection of pasta which was served with fresh vegetables and also the pasta was home made. We were all very pleased with the service and the taste, great food, friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Recommended!"
"Had a great dinner here in late August, pasta menu and choices are huge. Great taste and very filling portions. If you go - step in and up to the desk. The staff did not pay much attention to us while we browsed the menu just outside the door, but the instant we stepped in to the counter we were greeted and seated."
