Kathleen O: Amazing place all around.. Cheese n meat and spinach salad were excellent appetizers..shared 3 different pizzas and all were great followed by chocolate tartufo..you must try this place
Will Fleming: Some of the best Neapolitan around. I love their margherita: simple & amazing. For dessert, their affogatto is excellent.
Joe D: None of the staff speak English as a first language (it seems). And *that* is why you should stop in and gorge.

Brian Hoff: Trust me on this: Get the Spinach salad. The dressing is light but flavors the taste of orange juice a bit. The aged Parm is great and crunch of Apples does this salad nice.
Martin Peacock: Beef, veal, and pork ragú Bolognese, all the way.
Alex Rainert: The Cubano Italiano panini is off the chain. Braised short rib & prosciutto with red onion, peppers and swiss cheesy. Come get some.

Joe Bilman: The spinach salad with hunks of bacon and the burger are really great
CITY GRIT: If you're there for dinner, always start with the Kale Salad, the Scallop & Marrow Tacos and any of their housemade pastas!
Alex Rainert: The Hangtown Fry consists of eggs, Vermont cheddar, bacon and tempura-fried oysters. That's right. Oysters. Breakfast re-imagined. Recognize.

Lauren Ross: Don't want to write a good review, because I don't want to have to wait in line. That being said, this place is brilliant. Knowledgeable about wine, great menu, and great food. <3 the spinach salad
Silvie Senauke: Love the eggplant pizza and the plain!
Serious Eats: Wood-fired Neapolitan-esque pies worth a visit from beyond the neighborhood.

Travis Statham: Really fresh meat here. Steaks and pork chops, burgers, and swordfish is great. Rotisserie chickens are an easy ten dollar meal. #carnivore
Turner Roach: With succinct shopping list in hand, hustle through the narrow crowded store stopping for: the olive bar, the cheese case, the myriad of salsas & chips, and the hundreds of varieties of honey and jell
David Hitchings: Coffee bean selection is decent; Check the roasted date, the newer beans will be at the back.
