Went for the eggs purgatory, was not a fan, it is essentially shakshuka, but was very tomato sauce-y and there was no flavor to it, and definitely no Parmigiano Reggiano on top. We also got the burger which was good and the French toast which were also good, the seasonal fruit was strawberry’s and mangos. For us personally the highlight were their drinks, we got the Irish lunch which was delicious, and the Illyia (with the flowers in the photo) also very good

Can't say enough about this place! The food was tremendous. We got two dinners and a pizza. (Amazing pizza with prosciutto and arugula. Yum!) Service was great, very friendly, and a terrific vibe. Can't wait to get back there. ❤️

I made sure to check their hours online and showed up over an hour before the posted closing time, but they had already closed early because it was a slow day.

Enjoyed a nice dinner after the gym here! Shared a pizza and the rigatoni pasta. The pizza was quite good with the right amount of spice and sweetness from the honey you can pour on top. The mocktails were ok heavily hibiscus flavor couldn’t really taste the other essentials in the

4.5 starsFound this place and was excited to check it out so we planned a joint birthday dinner for 11 on a Saturday night. We made a reservation for 7pm and arrived to a quiet setting. We were seated at the bench closest to the pizza ovens which was comfortable and we had the perfect amount of space. The place did definitely fill up and get pretty loud while we were there so the reservation was a good idea for us.Our server, Joseph, was great! He was very patient with our group that was trying to decide what we were getting. I, myself am pretty indecisive about food and always enjoy a good recommendation. We ended up ordering the calamari, octopus, meatballs and prosciutto with burrata. Everything was good, but the prosciutto and burrata were extra yummy. I also got the ricotta and honey which I can't often find on menus and it was so yum!I always think it's funny when our group orders drinks that amount to like half what the food costs lol we also got 3 pizzas - margherita, burrata and the diavola. Honestly, I wasn't wowed by any of them and actually could have done without any pizza (to be fair I didn't try the margherita bc it was on the other far side of the table). Others enjoyed the pizza and the burrata was a hit.For entrees, we got the short rib tagliatelle, cacio e pepe, linguini with white clams, oricchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe (my recommendation), parpadelle Bolognese, with fries and brussel sprouts with pancetta. Everyone seemed to really like their dishes and the cacio e pepe and short rib were a hit. I liked my oricchiette and it was as described - creamy flavorful and I don't normally enjoy pasta like that. I also enjoyed the brussel sprouts a lot. We got all sorts of drinks from the bar and we got some bottles of montepulciano which were really good. For dessert, we got some cappuccino, espresso, tiramisu, Nutella calzone and affogato. They did a nice little candle and birthday song and the desserts were refreshing! The affogato ice cream had this nice crunchy exterior as well and it tasted delicious with the espresso.I had a great time with my friends and Joseph was awesome all around! I'm glad we liked him so much because though we added extra gratuity for him, it is not noted anywhere (until you get the receipt AFTER you pay) that the tip percentage is based on the total check AFTER taxes so it can definitely add up. Like I said, Joseph was awesome so I'm glad (and hope) he got the extra, but it's something to keep in mind.As someone else mentioned, this restaurant is on Seated and you can download the app and earn rewards back. You can get credit for your first dine when you sign up with code melissa1041. Happy eats! :)

Popped in to have a drink as they had plenty of room at the bar and a welcoming sign outside of the front door. Sat at the bar and the bartender Gloria was lovely... Checked in on us without being overbearing. Good conversation and we certainly now want to return to try the food (which looked delicious!)
