| - An Italian hole in the wall at it's finest. I am pretty shocked at the bad reviews I have read, as I felt my experience was totally different. Small, romantic, and dim lit with a vibe of an old school Italian deli and a small fancy restaurant all in one.
I would say this place is definitely a family owned business. Prices maybe a little high, but worth it for the ambiance and experience. Although I didn't indulge in the wine, the selection was decent. Make sure you look at the specials menu. Which has a varitey all the way from veal Milanese, to basic fettuccine bolognese.
I ordered the stuffed artichoke, and the tortellini Chloe, which had prosciutto, peas, mushrooms, and pink sauce. The pasta was fresh, which is a huge plus! The portions were huge, enough for leftovers unless you have a big appetite.
Fresh cheese and black pepper offered, which had they not been I would have been disappointed. For dessert the chef in house makes a cheesecake, or tiramisu. They have some basic gelato options as well. I got a cheesecake, and it was delicious and very shareable.
I can't wait to come back and try some of the baked pasta, or seafood options. This place is a great neighborhood gem and I am so happy to have found it.
