We loved this restaurant. This was a new find for us - one town over from where we live. Being Italian it's hard to find Italian food that I like since I am used to fresh ingredients at home. The foundation sauce in this Italian Restaurant is delicious. The variations of the vodka and spicy sauces are tasty, as well. The personal pizza was big enough for two if you have an app, but we ordered it to try and have some leftovers. We loved the igloo, but honestly the inside of the restaurant was just as cute and festive. Our server, Irene, was super helpful and quick but the food was still spaced enough where we could enjoy it. The garlic knots were huge and tasted great. I am still shocked that I had never gone to this establishment before, but so glad we found it.
