What our guests are saying

Decided to show up with my GF at 5pm, when they first open. It was quiet, service was quick and the prices were reasonable. I most likely will return to try their pastas. We had the arugula and prosciutto pizza. It was🤌🏼. The pizza was a decent size, big enough for two with enough room for dessert.

Very delicious food. The octopus was so soft and flavorful. The pizza was well cooked and the gnocchi was perfectly creamy. The drinks were also great. Would recommend coming here.

I absolutely love coming here with loved ones for their pizzas, they are so delicious! I also love how sweet the workers always are. They always check in and make sure we don’t need anything else. As well as always being ready to answer questions! I have developed a dairy allergy and yesterday was my first time back since, Frankie was super helpful and accommodating! Really appreciate his help!
