"We got the Chicken Marsala and the Chef’s pasta special (chicken, sun dried tomatoes, zucchini, broccoli in a creamy white sauce). It was all fantastic! The free bread was delicious too but I wish there had been more than 4 tiny little pieces for two of us."

"A hidden gem! We only stopped in to delay the traffic and have a drink and we were so happy we did. Great service, great prices, and such a beautiful atmosphere. Paul the bartender was great. Highly recommend!!"

"We often visit our son at UCLA and have been wanting to visit. First of all, the food is wonderful. The red sauce is definitely from scratch. I had the Eggplant and pasta, very tasty. My husband and son had the Gnocci, also yummy. Paul was very nice and welcoming. We really liked him ! There is a parking garage right behind the restaurant. We didn't know and felt like we were putting our lives at risk. No crosswalk and just crazy, so this will definitely bring us back. The atmosphere is great too. The full bar and huge variety of wines is also a plus. My only request is that they update the menu. My eggplant was $19 on the menu and I was charged $25. With the $9 beer, lunch for 3 was $84 without tip yet. Some lunch specials might bring more customers in. Just a suggestion for a great place that we want to revisit again and again. Thank you !"

"Ordered the vegetable lasagna and the mushroom truffle pizza to go. They did not give me the mushroom truffle pizza but instead I got some sort of prosciutto, arugula, and cheese pizza. I didn’t make a fuss because I thought you know maybe they’re out of the pizza that I wanted. The only flavoring to it is the prosciutto and the arugula. This thing is basically bland. I had to add balsamic vinaigrette to it to at least give it some kind of flavor. Same with the vegetable lasagna. It needs salt, it needs pepper, and I could probably get some tastier from the frozen food section of a grocery store. When I ordered my food, the person who took my order sounded like they couldn’t really be bothered to take my order. It’s Monday night and the place was empty. Put two into together. I don’t believe all of the five star reviews. I’m only eating this because I’m just really hungry, and there’s nothing else in the house."

"The food is delicious, we want to come back and try everything. The chef is amazing"
