“ This is such a cute little bistro and the food was delicious! Everything was so tasty. We had the lobster ravioli and spicy sausage penne and both were so yummy. The desserts were also so tasty! The owner is so friendly and such a great cook. We will definitely be back to enjoy this beautiful and delicious little Italian bistro! ”
“ This place is so underappreciated. The place is super cozy and the owner is super friendly. The food is excellent and has one of our favorite tiramisu recipes. This is one of very few places where the pasta sauce is NOT sweet!! And you can really taste the tomatoes. Also the wine is so good AND cheap!! I would recommend this place for everyone looking for a delicious cozy Italian experience. ”
“ Relaxed atmosphere with authentic and tasty food!! I’m glad I didn’t listen to negative reviews- I really enjoyed the food- completely reminded me of Italy- I recommend the bruschetta, baby artichoke hearts, tagliolini bolognese, ravioli and of course the toasted bread with olive oil. Atmosphere was comforting and cozy with available parking! Sorry we enjoyed the food too much before we took pictures;) ”
“ Can I give this place more than 5 stars? I know I'm not usually very critical of places. But, Parioli is on another level for their food. My wife lived in Italy for 18 months and we've both visited. This took her right back and was the real thing. Probably the best lasagna I've ever eaten, and it wasn't even what I ordered. Get something with red sauce! ”
“ ALOHA! This place is so quaint! Mahalo for such a good experience ”
“ Better with age. We were regulars before we moved and we returned for a bit of nostalgia. It must be 8 years since we were there and Antonio, the owner, remembered us! My wife didn’t believe him until he asked if I still want my favorite, seafood pasta. Wow! The food was as good if not better than I remembered. Go! You will love the food. ”
“ The food is amazing! We shared a couple of the appetizers and they were so good! The Burrata and the Bruschetta. The mozzarella was so fresh in the Burrata and the Bruschetta was on amazing bread. The entrees were definitely up to par. The chicken parmigiana was exquisite as well as the lasagna. I don't think you could order a bad thing on the menu. A must if you're looking for great Italian food. ”
“ I rarely give five stars in all categories, but I have to make an exception for this place. I was lucky enough to meet the owner, Antonio, who is also the chef and made the best Napoli style pizza I have ever had. I’ve been to Naples, and this was better than any of the pizzas that I had there! he has a great wine selection and his staff is friendly and very good. If you’re in the area, you must go here! ”
