    The service started off a little slow but he made up by giving us yummy chocolate cake! The food was so good! I had gnocchi and they melted in my mouth. My husband had the lasagna and said it was one of the best he has had!

    A pleasant meal and nice staff. Food was good to very good. Holiday season is always busy and therefore noisy as was this evening. Big tables with 8 plus added to that. I’d certainly go back. The lasagna was ++ as was the scallops with pasta.

    Hands down, the best Italian food in SLC. Every dish is made with care, and it's fairly affordable, around $29 a plate not counting drinks. Decent wine and cocktail menu, and wonderful desserts.
