Any of the home made pasts are always amazing. Great lunch limited choices but, never a problem because we have enjoyed everything.

Very cute restaurant . Nice atmosphere. Friendly service . Local beer was great. Cannelloni and gnocchi with Gorgonzola sauce were amazing. To top it off the chocolate ganache cake was to die for.

We had lunch special , just perfect. Good portions, fish cooked just before serving and they made the paste there, same with the tiramisú that was awesome.

I'm not such a gnocchi lover but its excellent here. Everything is solid- fish , lamb , pastas - you can't go wrong.

While I was eating the lamb steak , God came down and whispered "Be still and know that I am God." psalm 46:10. Thank you, lamb , for finally making me understand that quote.
