The pappardelle con porcini is so out of this world it's on Mars.
Massive portions. I had the pappardelle con porcini and it was so creamy and tasty - still thinking about it! Fresh mozzarella on the bruschetta was heavenly. Service was fantastic - very attentive!
To start: the bruschetta (the best I've ever had). For the main, the pasta is molto bene. Portions are huge, so feel to share. Best part: BYOB, no corking fee.
Pastas are a must, notably the veal ravioli with creamy porcini meat sauce and spaghetti chitarra carbonara. Save room for panna cotta with passion fruit coulis. Fairly priced Italian wines. Read more.
The sesame tuna was excellent. Pastas were fresh and home made. Great little neighborhood trattoria.
This neighborhood trattoria is known for its charming Italian staff and authentic Italian food. Be sure to try one of the nightly specials; they are always delicious. - Inspector

AmaZing!! Our favorite dishes were the octopus , the halibut and the raviolis. Full of flavor and not expensive. Also try the sorbets for dessert!!
Restaurant is gorgeous! Excellent service, and the food was incredible. The atmosphere is perfect. Cozy dining areas, and the wait staff will treat you like family. 5 out of 5 stars from me!
Cozy and delicious. The sommelier is on point.
Try the pear flatbread pizza thing on the specials menu. Its not always on there but it is delicious!
Mark is a great chef, no dobut at all
Food was ok, service terrible. Be prepared to hear your neighbors conversation because you are literally 6 inches away from them.
a really cool space to hang out, great beers!
Beers, burger and schnitzel were all delicious. Get them with root chips and grab a beer flight. If you want something light, the fried giardiniera is great. Toro & Night Moth are great beers.
Cherry Amaro Ale clocks in at 8.2% abv & tastes like a good Manhattan!

Cute patio as everyone says, definitely sit outside while the weather's nice. The BYOB aspect is great for keeping the bill low. I had the linguine alla Pescatora and it was delicious!
Order the mussels as an appetizer. The flavor profile is best described as: fresh, buttery, and slightly spicy. Yum! Andrea, our waitress was very sweet.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
