Nothing fancy pants - just good Italian comfort food . Great outdoor seating ; cozy indoor in rustic Italian style
The chicken panini and the bacon blue cheese spinach salad were both wonderful. Add that with the mimosas and it was a wonderful experience. We couldn't ask for a better server than Katie.
Small spot on the mall . Classic Italian dishes and pizza in an intimate dining room with an open kitchen .
Great service and great food ! Came 2 years ago when U of L was in town and returned because we enjoyed ourselves.
Thanks for the lovely comments. We appreciate the business, and of course our servers, LEXI and HILARY . Billy B...Sorry about the Mozzarella , come on in for a free appetizer on me. Thanks!
Pasta a la Arrogosta. Lobster , Green Peas , Mushrooms and Sun-Dried Tomatoes in a Light Pink Rose Sauce. Delicious!
Hilary and Lexi are the nest servers out there! I highly recommend requesting them! Easy on the eyes too.
Sun-Dried Tomato Ravioli with Pomodoro Fresco and Fresh Basil !
Manicotti was great and Joe, the owner, gave us great service!
Just a good old school Italian restaurant who does it right
Salmon Caesar salad is fantastic
Try to get Hilary or Lexi as your server..I've never had better service! And they're smokin hot
Salads are excellent here!
Save room for a cannoli !!! They are awesome!
Try the Gluten Free Pizza !
Awesome pizza !
Do not get the cheesesticks . They are really expensive and are the kind you can get anywhere.
