I was referred to this spot and so happy we checked it out. The area is a little rough but you turn the corner and the street comes to life with Resturant's and little shops. The place is nice, two separate large rooms with plenty of seating. The ambiance is urban and the place is loud, a lot going on and people enjoying themselves. We started with the grilled octopus, crab cakes and Brussel sprouts. The Brussel sprouts stole the appetizer show, roasted to perfection and packed with flavor. The meals ordered at the table included the Carbonara, gnocchi with spare rib meat, salmon with scallops and mushroom feta pasta. I got a bite of each and the Carbonara was my personal favorite and was topped a perfectly cooked egg, loaded with sauce, bacon and loaded with smooth creamy flavor. The pasta was tender and held the sauce nicely. Very excited to go back and try a few more things. We got lucky and got a table, no reservations available unless it's 6 or more. TIP: make reservation for 6 and accidentally have two people no show
