This place was so crowded, we bumped elbows with the table next to us. It was my date's favorite italian in town. We made reservations but still waited half an hour. Nice rustic brown interiors, the ambience might have been good if it wasn't so darned busy. Prices were pretty high. The food was really oily and not as tasty- I felt like I was missing some essential italian herbs. I was pretty dissapointed.

Pros: Nice decor, popular so good for people watching

Cons: crowded, food ok but overpriced

Editor's Review

Inventive Italian cuisine in a setting reminiscent of a neighborhood trattoria.  See the full editorial review.
