Tables are well spaced; the host Adriana was lovely, efficient, and food was served promptly. Feels like you are being welcomed into someone's home for a safe, authentic dining experience. Very reasonably priced for what you get. The chef has wonderful taste; I had the tortellini with blue cheese sauce which was accented with green onion, and the cheese wasn't overpowering, just had a lovely rounded flavour that was beautifully complimented by a glass of the house red. They've been in business for a long time and you can see (and taste!) why. Very thankful I was able to visit this gem.

We were looking for a quiet and quaint restaurant for our anniversary. From the outside, the restaurant looked a bit rundown, but the inside was pleasant enough. The Valpolicella wine was delicious. The service was acceptable, although a bit slow with only two staff to serve and cook. Unfortunately, the food was terrible. The salad and cannelloni portions were small, the bruschetta seemed to have canned tomato paste as opposed to tomatoes, the white sauce on the pasta was bland and runny, the bread was a bit stale. It was quite a disappointment. We did not stay for dessert.

Had a great time here. We were the only table in the room (very early dinner) and the server, who was also the chef and owner handled it perfectly. She was attentive not lingering and was a delight. The food was all good and came out quickly and hot. The food here is made with love and served well. Do not go here if you are looking for something new and astounding, this is a place to go for a hot bowl of spaghetti and a great time.

That one was a surprise on a Monday night, as my friend and I had planned on another restaurant which happened to be closed. Well, so much the better! We discovered this hidden gem, where you feel like in a traditional family restaurant in Italy. Quiet, a bit dated in the furniture but that’s the charm, homemade food absolutely deliciius with perfect portion size (european style i.e not huge and gargantuan) and the owner/cook/waitress super nice and not bugging you every minute and cutting you in your conversation to see how it goes.If you are looking for great food and not tape-à-l’oeil, then this is the place. We will definitely come back and bring more people.

Love this place. Very friendly and homey atmosphere, it's like you are going to someone's home. Good quality homemade food, I can see why this restaurant has been around for a long time.

This was by far the worst meal I have ever had. The bread was stale. The pasta was way over cooked and sauce was little more than warm milk. Mixed in was raw pieces of bacon. The salad was tiny. A huge disappointment.
