I usually order the pappardelle, but this time I opted for the tagliatelle. The dish was generous with olives, which isn’t my thing -but I’m glad I tried it. Pappardelle remains my all-time favorite, followed by the cappelletti and Tamarin al Tartufo Nero. Oh, and the Zabaglione is a wonderful way to end the meal! The food and wine selection, the staffers, and the ambience all make this place one of our favorites.

The service was great. The ambiance was nice and noise reasonable. The food was fine. Not great, not terrible. And expensive for what it was.

It is the place to heal the soul with good food and good service. I had the 40-yoke pasta with black truffles and it was divine. The service was great, as always.

Everything was good but please make your bread order bigger! The big part of the meal is sopping up the sauce with bread

One of our favorite Italian restaurants in the city. Stylish settings, kind and attentive service along with quality food keeps us coming back for more. Their salads are top notch with ingredients that look they were picked right from the garden. Pastas are equally as good. If you’re feeling adventurous, take a look at the Doppio if available, a sweeter pasta entree.

The servers and food were great! We thoroughly enjoyed the menu, it was definitely different from your typical italian joint and it really helped all the dishes stand out in comparison to most restaurants in the area! Owner was super helpful and nice about issues with the InKind app and we were super happy with our experience(:
