Great for Sunday brunch. It has become quite popular so service can be slow at times.

This is evening was on of the best culinary experiences I have had. Very welcoming host and hostess seating me quickly but not rushed as using my cane up a few seats to beautiful elevated dining area. Our appetizers bruschetta and beet and burrata salad were the perfect and most delicious start to our dinner. I had the most fabulous and delicious Fettuccine Alfredo I have ever had. Specially added for me were mushrooms and broccoli. Who knew?! Out of this world for my vegetarian lifestyle. Only had room for espresso as desert and was amongst the best I have had in Europe or anywhere. Thank You Divina Cucina an unforgettable culinary experience for my brother and I…to be continued…I hope.
