This place is easy to overlook when passing it, but this place surpassed any expectations I've had. As soon as you walk in, they greet you like an old friend. They're very customer-oriented and it's evident that everyone cares about the business. There was a small mix-up with the order, and I was going to let it go, but the owner was adiment that he would accomodate me and went above and beyond to make sure I had a good experience. The atmosphere is very cozy and they seem to have a good wine selection, although I didn't stay for dine-in, and the pizza was amazing; great sauce, amazing taste... highly reccomend.

I can't believe I've not even been here before, but I'll be going back for sure. Small inside, but plain and warm.The fried calamari was perfectly cooked, we had 2 orders and both were tender and perfect, the side sauces were very good. The toasts with burrata and proscuitto were very good, just wish they were closer to room temperature.Our entrees were all very good with nice portion sizes. They came with crispy roasted potatoes and a zucchini & red pepper side that was delicious. The swordfish special was very nice. Desserts like the tartufo were also good and we enjoyed cappuccinos. Prices were fair for the area. It my be my favorite Norwalk Italian spot.

Love this place. Never had a bad meal here. From appetizer to dessert I've always been satisfied. Just a small cozy Italian restaurant with excellent food... You can't go wrong. The gnocchi with the truffle oil is too die for! Great attentive staff too

Best Italian food I can find! So good every time. The calamari is to die for. And veal is always so tender and I think about the tiramisu daily. With half price bottles of wine Tuesdays and Wednesday they never miss a beat. Love this place.

Such a great, cozy, family owned spot. Tuesdays and Wednesday's are half price bottle of wine night which, along with delicious Italian bread, was the best greeting ever as soon as we sat down. Enjoyed apps, wine, and the unique pizzas. I can't wait to come back!

You need reservation before you go; it’s a good atmosphere; also the air is very fresh as they install air purifiers to clean up; but also removed aroma

Micaela and Mackenzie are rock stars! It was early when we arrived so we got to see how graciously they greeted each and every customer, with a hello and how can I help you. Together they managed the dining room, moving from table to table to ensure everyone was taken care of. I hope the owners realize what treasures they have in these incredible young women. Eddie, I hope I got your name right, and the chef did a phenomenal job with my dinner. I admit it, I'm a selective eater. They accommodated me with a couple of changes to an existing dish and it was fantastic. I never finish anything, but tonight I finished my meal. Thank you so much for a fantastic dinner - we will definitely be going back. Michaela & Mackenzie you ladies are awesome!!
