    We started with the meatballs and they were delicious. I ordered the spicy vodka rigatoni, it was really good and I would definitely get it again. My boyfriend had the carbonara, but we were a bit disappointed. The sauce was too dry and there was very little bacon, so we would not recommend it. We also tried the tiramisu, but I would not order it again. It looked promising, but the cream did not have much coffee flavor.

    Love the atmosphere — it truly reminds me of Italy 🇮🇹. The pizza is perfectly baked, the meatballs are mouth-watering, and the mellengane (eggplant sandwich) is absolutely delicious. Every bite feels authentic, and the warm, lively vibe makes it one of my favorite spots to unwind and enjoy real Italian flavors. 🍕🍝🍷

    ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE! Food was amazing and service was awesome! Came here on a Saturday night, we were able to get a seat at the bar after waiting 15 minutes and I would saw it was a great experience there! We were watching the chef cook the food and chatting with her and the wait staff nearby, they are all really friendly and helpful. We got the bruschetta which was amazing on the focaccia bread! Our entrees were the carbonara pasta and it was sooo good. They make it with pancetta and it was so creamy and umami! Absolutely recommend!

    Mammamia! The Margherita pizza had an authentic Italian flavour. The staff were so welcoming, friendly and professional. Quick and top-notch service. The atmosphere was awesome, just like Italy. We had a lovely evening as a couple there. No doubt, the place is so crowded and much loved. Highly recommended. We'll surely go there again.

    We came here for a milestone birthday for me and did not regret it! The food was incredible. I got the spicy vodka rigatoni which was a lot hotter than I was expecting, but well worth it. The only problem I had was that there was someone doing some type of painting or something in the dining area which was a bit of a distraction. Not sure why they couldn't do it when the restaurant wasn't open, but all in all, really enjoyed it!
