This isn't our first time here - we keep coming back because it's the perfect place to unwind & enjoy a great evening. It's become a favorite for us whenever we want to treat ourselves to something truly special.

The cozy atmosphere & carefully chosen background music create a warm, relaxing vibe every time. It's the kind of spot that makes you feel instantly at ease.

We started with the prosciutto, parmesan, & the mushroom arancini, which were crispy on the outside & tender on the inside.

As for the mains, the poulet parmigiana was outstanding - juicy, crisp, & full of flavor. The lobster ravioli was rich & refined, & the lardo & mushroom pizza was absolutely delicious - a perfect combination of indulgence & balance.

The portions are generous, so the pricing feels completely fair. We often take leftovers home - there's always more than enough to enjoy.

One thing we really appreciate: everything is clearly homemade. You can taste the care & craftsmanship in every bite. It's always a pleasure to know that this team puts so much heart into what they do - from scratch, by hand, & with pride.

The restaurant is also immaculately clean, & it's obvious that the staff pays close attention to every detail - from the plating to the warm, attentive service.

This place is a gem - consistent, authentic, & full of soul. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

We stumbled on this location when it popped up on the map near our air bnb on a girls weekend away. The atmosphere was romantic & unique with vintage decor with modern elements. The wine selection & liquor for cocktails were great. We chose to ordered a variety of apps & mains. The best & most unique across all 5 of us ... was the bruschetta lard with roasted tomato's! Insane! So delicious. I would eat that everyday. We always all enjoyed the mushroom stuffed gnocchi with cream truffle sauce. The pizza, cesar salad, mushroom aranchini balls, & burata were allllll so amazing. Lots of gluten free pasta choices & pizza. It was quite a quiet area with road construction, parking right out front. It was a romantic vibe. We all snacked on the leftovers overs the next day. Great portions! Our server was lovely! She helped us navigate the language barrier with kindness.

Very cute, rustic little Italian restaurant. Loved it so much I'm writing this still at the table. There are 5 of us & we don't speak any French. Our server was absolutely lovely, & the food was phenomenal. Our collective favourites were the bruschetta with lardo & the truffle mushroom gnocchi.

I got the mushroom stuffed gnocchi & it was most incredible gnocchi I've ever had! It was so soft & the mushroom filling was so delicious!! The portion was large & the leftovers were just as good. I would absolutely come back here!
