It was such a cozy and lovely restaurant. We ordered one squid ink spaghetti and one pork sausage ragu for my husband’s earlier birthday celebration. We also bought some pasta from the restaurant, as their food brought back my love for the pasta again! Definitely will go back to try other dishes in the future. The Tiramisu is super love as well.
