| - Atmosphere: 4/5 - it's casual, yet upscale. It's inviting and cozy at the same time. This place has more of a laid back Italian cafe atmosphere. Even though it's in Yorkville, it's not pretentious at all.
Service: 3.5/5 The waitress was very friendly, brought out my menu and coffee quickly. The only reason it doesn't get 4 stars is because each order takes at least 15 minutes, but considering everything is i made from scratch, it's a reasonable wait.
Food/price - I had a coffee - $2 approx and a calabrese pizza which had olives, spicy salami, peppers, artichoke (I think) on a thin crust with virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar and chili oil on the side, which was $10.95. It was a thin crust pizza and made-to-order. The crust and the base were delicious and piping hot. Even the salami tasted amazing. I'm not the biggest fan of pizza as a lot of pizza chains use frozen ingredients, but it seemed fresher here. Also, their coffee is Lavatzza, which I fell in love with while in California last week.
Verdict: A great unpretentious Italian place in the Yorkville area at reasonable prices, good service and amazing food. Definitely will visit again.
