The food and service were a 10/10! We loved the brodo with tortellini, steak and butter chicken and the meringue dessert. Thank you to the staff for making such a memorable meal. Make a reservation and if paying credit card, don’t bring Amex!

This place was the BEST we had during our Italy trip. My husband and I went 30 mins before opening at lunch time, as we did not have a reservation. While we were waiting, slowly others started coming to wait as well. As soon as doors opened, they seated us, despite us not having a reservation. We ordered the tomatoes, butter chicken, and tortellini in brodo. Every single dish was PERFECT. We were served the tortellini in broth first, and they split the portions for us too. Tortellini was al dente, with a meat stuffing inside. It was soooo good. The broth was super savory and flavorful. Then the chicken and tomatoes. These two dishes complimented each other SO WELL. The chicken breast was super juicy, flavorful, and not overwhelming. The tomatoes were super refreshing, and it complimented the chicken perfectly. Make sure to dip the bread in the olive oil with tomatoes. 10000% recommend !
