“ Great family run Italian restaurant. My family has been frequenting this restaurant for several years now. The food is always excellent. The atmosphere is excellent. The location is fantastic. Great view of the village piazza throughout the year, especially Christmas with the lit tree and decorations. An all around Great restaurant. Note, it can be crowded at times, so it's best to call in a reservation on Fridays and weekend evenings. ”
“ Lucas is the best server here! The food is amazing and the drinks are sooooo delicious. I enjoyed the vibe and atmosphere this restaurant has to offer. Best espresso martini in town! Been here many times and will continue to come back. Highly recommend this wonderful place. ”
“ Very good Italian food in the heart of historic Bloomingdale. The restaurant is separated from the bar which is nice. Premium liquor is offered with a decent bourbon selection. You can get your manhattan or old fashioned with a nice chunk of ice. It’s an upscale feel with affordability. Atmosphere is nice, well decorated but a tad loud. My linguini in white wine sauce with clams was delicious and my wife enjoyed her gnocchi with meat sauce. The calamari was good but not the best. Overall good experience, reasonably priced and great atmosphere. ”
“ Excellent food, reasonable prices, and great seevice! ”
“ This is an excellent Italian restaurant with great food and service. A perfect size menu with good options and a wine list to.match. From the appetizer to dessert everything was cooked perfectly as you would expect. Take your family and friends and have a wonderful time. ”
“ was my first visit, and the Lasagna with meat was amazing. The sauce is a traditional Italian sauce. Everything was good, meat and size. I usually drink ginger ale, and the lady barista / bartender is kindness. She always asked if I want more or not. The music complements the ambience. The restrooms are new and clean. Perfect for a good time. The parking lot is front the building. It's better reserve or stay there early 5pm is you want to dinner. They have traditional bread, the lady ask you for the bread. She always has a particular menu, and she explains everything for you. ”
“ I enjoyed al fresco dining facing a small piazza, watching people stroll by and a band setting up for an outdoor concert in the park. The pizza was tasty, had great flavors and dough. The staff was very pleasant, present, and friendly. On my next visit, I had the bone-in beaded pork chop and it was the size of a catcher's mitt. Plus a side of spaghetti. Delicious. The spaghetti was home made. The calamari was perfectly grilled. ”
“ We stumbled upon this restaurant by accident and were pleasantly surprised! Delicious homemade pasta. Our waitress guided us through the menu and gave a suggestion to try the gnocchi with vodka sauce and crumbled sausage. Outstanding!! Pillowy, cheesy, delightful gnocchis. I’m definitely going to make my way back here. ”
