"Food is fantastic. Servers are knowledgeable, and attentive. Highly recommend the artichoke antipasto. Great atmosphere for a date night. Another winning restaurant for owner Phillip on Cooper."

"We wandered in on a Saturday evening. We were sat immediately, which we didn’t expect. The bread was perfectly toasty. The appetizers were a little disappointing. HOWEVER, the main courses were amazing! I had the truffle duck pasta and my dad got the short rib pappardelle. Both were incredible. So rich in flavor and truly a fun experience. The truffle is very potent, but that’s perfect for me! All in all, it was a pleasant surprise and I can’t wait to be back."

"First time we have been here and Conrad was our server. The atmosphere was amazing, the decor was so calming and beautifully decorated. The service was prompt and very kind. The food was fantastic, we had a pasta dish and the filet. The bar was beautiful and drinks were great too. The price was reasonable. We will be back for sure!"

"I can’t speak for others, but music was not loud, and food was exceptional. A great addition to the Alpharetta group of Italian restaurants. ALL pasta is freshly made. We started with the octopus which was incredibly tender and well prepared. We both ordered a Primi. I got the pappardella, short rib bolognese, pistachio béchamel, grilled scallions, pickled celery, reggiano and my wife ordered the SPAGHETTI ALLA CHITTARA - bottarga, grated farm egg, fennel, grana padana, breadcrumbs. Both were very well prepared and delicious. Wine selection is quite extensive also. A nice change from the couple old worlds, and then all cabs and merlots. My pet peeve for Altlanta Italian. I can’t say to disregard the few bad reviews, but maybe an off day. Our experience was fantastic. We didn’t it get a secondi since we were meeting friends after and we we full! Next visit for sure."

"Downtown Alpharetta's newest culinary adventure is authentically Italian. We enjoyed dinner there on a Thursday evening and had a wonderful experience. These folks try hard to please. The food speaks for itself but the customer service shines! We were only able to try a few dishes but I wouldn't hesitate to order all of them again. We started off with the Veal Meatballs. Four to an order, they were light and fluffy and served with a home made pomodoro sauce, grated grana padano cheese and a sprinkling of some type of gremolata that added a bright, fresh flavor and a bit of texture. We also tried the artichoke hearts with limoncello dipping sauce. They arrived hot, and perfectly fried without being oily. They were served topped with a sprinkling of grated cheese and another crunchy gremolata. As for pasta, we had the Pappardella. It's topped with both a short rib bolognese AND a pistachio béchamel. Are these sauced mixed together? Are they layered separately? Who knows and who cares because the resulting dish was a plate full of wonderfully balanced deliciousness. The cheesy, creamy, savory fat ribbons of perfectly cooked fresh pappardelle are also topped with grilled scallions, pickled celery (just a touch) and Parmiano-Reggiano. Last but not least, the wine list. It's varied and extensive. Being relatively clueless about Italian wines (which is a sin in itself), I asked our knowledgeable and gracious server to reccomend a soft red. She brought back an ever so slightly chilled glass of Tosalet, a Grenache Blend. Perfect! Needless to say, I'll be back and will save room for dessert next time. They have an Olive Oil cake and I'm pretty sure that's something I need in my life immediately."
