" The best Italian restaurant in the area! I love the homemade pizzas and the friendly atmosphere. Staff is always welcoming, and the food is consistently amazing. The pizzas can be customized, and I appreciate that everything seems fresh and local. Don’t skip dessert—try the cannoli, it's divine! I always leave satisfied and excited to come back. Highly recommend for anyone in the vicinity looking for authentic Italian. They also have great vegetarian options, which is a plus for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is an absolute gem! The food is legitimately homemade, and you can taste the difference. I had the lasagna, which was layered beautifully with a rich Bolognese sauce, and my partner had the seafood pasta which was loaded with fresh ingredients. Every bite was bursting with flavor! The staff was super friendly and helped us navigate the extensive menu flawlessly. We even had the tiramisu for dessert, which was light and not overly sweet—just perfect. We will certainly be back, potentially every weekend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The worst dining experience I've had lately. While the food tasted decent when it finally arrived, the wait time was outrageous. It took an hour and a half to get our mains, and my chicken marsala was overcooked and tough. To make matters worse, the restaurant was too loud, making conversation impossible. I left disappointed, and I won't be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nice restaurant with great food! We had a variety of pasta dishes that were homemade, which added an authentic touch. However, the atmosphere was a little noisy for my liking, especially on a weekend night. The service was good, but with the high demand, they were slightly understaffed. Overall, a solid experience worth trying. " (*Curated Review*)

" My third visit to this restaurant, and it didn’t dissapoint! The calamari as an appetizer was crispy and seasoned to perfection. I decided to try their eggplant parm this time, and it was a delicious choice! The bread is always a standout—there's something special about it that keeps me coming back. Just be prepared for the ambiance; it can be quite lively which adds to the charm! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here for dinner and really enjoyed the experience. The atmosphere is lovely, especially during sunset. My friends and I shared a few appetizers which were delightful. The fried ravioli and calamari were the hits! For the main course, I ordered the eggplant parm, which was good but a tad too greasy for my liking. My friends had no complaints about their dishes, especially the sea bass. The service was on point, very friendly staff. I’ll definitely give it another go to try different dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely lunch here. The service was prompt, and the atmosphere was bright with a charming waterfront view. I enjoyed the pesto pasta, which was perfect for a summer day. I appreciate that they use local ingredients. The portion sizes were satisfying, and I couldn't finish everything. I learned that their pizzas are also highly recommended, so I’ll have to try that next time. Overall, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)
