I had a sea bass with Parmesan risotto and green peas sauce. Delicious food, very fresh, flavored, delicate. The waiter Steve was very kind, good music , great service. Definitely a nice place to go.

Steve Petrosino

Eclectic restaurant . Good service . Red sauce is nice but is cream and cheese based, giving it a pinkish appearance. Pappardelle is quite good. Italian sausage was good. calamari has a broiled option.

Nancy Prestigiacomo

Good Italian food for a reasonable price You may have to wait if you go around dinner time. There is outdoor dining but you need to request it. Had Veal Saltimboca with Pasta

Felix von Planta

we just came back from Tokyo and looking for some Italian food We had amazing Ravioli - and I was surprised by the wine options.

Best calamari in town ! Convenient location and good for late-night dining. They have a great menu, lots of variety and deliciously fresh pasta .

Shrimp cocktail , Caprese salad , risotto of the day (w/ lobster ), penne vodka & tiramisu . All fabulous. Great bottle of Cab as well . Fantastic service - thanks, Nick!

This is my parents go to restaurant . Always good, great ambience, happy staff and of course, the food!!!

Eggplant stack is very tasty. Appetizer calamari is out of this world. They grill the entire calamari .

Barry Ryskamp

Simple pasta marinara with a meatball . Wonderful choice.

@ Rosebud on Rush: Grab a great burger for less than $9 (including tax and tip)...that is absolutely delicious and finding a lunch at a great Chicago restaurant in the Gold Coast for less than $15 is Read more

Amazing food as usual! We always come here when in town .

Gluten free pasta with alfredo sauce is amazing. Such a rare find!

Jeff Loy

The key word here is "fresh." Everything from the pasta to the meatballs to the bread tastes like it was just made.

Get the fish (sea bass ) almandine style i.e. w/ sliced almonds ...its served in butter over spinach

Acquaviva Winery

Try the Rotolo di Melezane - Rotolo di Melezane: Pan-fried eggplant rolled with imported cheeses and baked in our rich marinara sauce

Teela Jackson

Great spaghetti and meatball dish! Large meatball and nice mild flavor in sauce.

Rigatoni alla vodka with shrimp

Bill Fuesz

If it's not on the menu , ask. They'll make it!

Can't go wrong with the Chilean sea bass . Comes with sautéed spinach .

French toast for brunch is massive and delicious!

Allison Hagendorf

Mamas Meatballs are INSANE! Must. Order. Now. #WomanVersusFood

Go for the $5 burgers on weekdays until 3pm. The service is how you would expect this place to act if they are only charging $5. But the burger is good, so don't worry about the nonexistent waitress .

Ahmed Alharban

Do NOT get the Alfredo (of any kind...meats don't help) you'd do better making your own with Ragu .
