We went for the first time last night and will definitely be back. I got the pasta Romano, and it was the best pasta entree I've had out to eat in a long time. It came out hot and fresh. You also have to try the garlic bread. Great date night spot! Definitely make a reservation!

Best Italian food around. Chef Wa is the best. His story is even better. Small 40 seat restaurant only open a few hours a night. Not fancy but doesn't need to be. Chef Wa makes a baked buffalo mozz app ,that if paired with his asiago garlic bread will make you smile . Love it. O and it's BYOB. So by the time your done with the app your half bottle in and are working up your appetite. Don't rush because he is the only chef and being able to watch him cook for the whole restaurant in front of your eyes is amazing. As a chef myself I love it and plan to open something like it in Florida. All of his food is great and definitely cooked with love. Thank you chef Wa and staff. See you soon

If you're looking for a semi-casual and laid back BYOB with your special someone, this is the place. Atmosphere is relaxed, food is comforting, and the staff is fantastically friendly. A single talented chef prepares all the meals with care and attention, bring your appetite because portions are large! Especially well prepared chicken in a variety of dishes, but plenty of eggplant and mushroom with amazing flavor.

Wide menu pleasing all tastes. Expert chef creates tasty dishes with the skill he demonstrated at Hartford's Hot Tomatoes years ago. This place is a gem, and priced very reasonable. The " bring your own wine" is a GREAT feature...allowing a genuine festive time with family or friends without breaking the bank ! This place is HIGHLY recommended by me...who had a blast there on my birthday !

What a delightful find! This hole-in-the-wall restaurant doesn't look like much from the street. But the menu has an excellent variety, the portions are generous, and the food is delicious. The risotto was cooked to order! The meal came with a large bowl of freshly grated parmesan. And the chocolate decadence cake was divine. The owner told me that they'll be celebrating their 30th anniversary this coming January, and I can see why they've lasted this long.
