The food is excellent, the restaurant is intimate, the staff friendly and engaging. Great Italian food!

Our experience was dissapointing. The appetizer was excellent, but the taste of the food went downhill quickly after that. Both entrees were extremely salty, and I had never tried sauteed spinach that tasted like a teaspoon of salt until that evening. The service was friendly and attentive, yet I don't enjoy feeling compelled to explain why I didn't eat every morsel of food on the plate. Overall, overpriced and I would not go again.

Previously reviewed. Went earler this week and found it entirely changed! Not necessarily bad but it now has a bit of a heavy handed maitre d'. That said, he was sort of fun and his recommendations for food and wine were good. Much higher energy than before. Food is still good, though menu is more limited.

Great Italian food. Located in the heart of Pioneer Square.

homey and unpretentious - like being in a small town in Italy
