Another perfect evening. For the appetizer, we went with the Arancini. Light and delicious. The salads were great. House made croutons and dressing were delicious. For entrees, we enjoyed the Veal Parmigiana and Chicken Marsala. Each couldn’t have been better. Full of flavor, perfect portion size. I want to highlight the Gnocchi with the cheese sauce I had on the side. This was heavenly…light but bursting with flavor. Wouldn’t change a thing. 10/10!

Great date night dinner choice. We had never been to this restaurant and so I picked it based on reviews and the menu. The food and service were excellent. We had the beef medallions and the tortellini. Both were very well prepared and delicious. The arancini was amazing and not like any that I have previously eaten. Finally, the tiramisu shined! I definitely recommend and will be back.
