so, so amazing and delicious food and very friendly and helpful staff. we were going for gluten-free and dairy free (challenging with Italian food often), and they have a gluten-free penne they can swap out for most of the pasta dishes with their amazing sauces!
I had the octopus appetizer, and it was like a meal with a huge arugula salad, fresh lemons, pesto, and potatoes. it was just delightful! Also had the carpaccio and the house pasta specialty with gluten-free penne and no dairy. it was AMAZING. I also had the white peach Italian soda and YUMMY... like summer in my mouth!
the staff were so, so friendly with warm and kind eye contact and attentive, without being in a false "I'm just showing up for my job" kind of way.
Will definitely come back whenever I'm in town.
I'm so thankful this place exists! it's like a vacation in the States. Fair prices, too.
