    The vongole was great. I do wish the pasta was more al dente. The pappardelle ossobuco special wasn’t as we expected - the sauce tasted like regular spaghetti ragu sauce. We were expecting something more brown & braised.

    One of my favorite Italian restaurants. I had the Branzini and it was excellent as usual. Fresh and tasty. The rest of the group had Salmon, and pasta and veal. It was a nice relaxed and enjoyable experience for all.

    Great service. Always enjoy the food and great choice of different wines. Love sitting outside on small patio watching people walking in Old Town Orange.

    The food was very disappointing. The calamari was fishy and we did not finish it. The lamb in the lamb ragu was tough and gamy. The lasagna was a disappointment. The quality of the food has declined and is definitely not what it use to be. The best part of the meal was the simple salad. I doubt that we will visit again.

    One of our favorites! We don’t go too often, but it never disappoints! Great menu choices, both food and wine. Good is always delicious!

    Great Italian restaurant located off the circle in Orange. Warm friendly atmosphere and the food is excellent to match. We started with the burrata and the calamari which are lightly sautéed without breading in a slightly spiced sauce. Black squid ink spaghetti special with seafood was excellent. Great selection of European wines. Overall highly recommended
